Barnsley 26-27 Third Kit Released
, by Phan Tich Giay
Barnsley FC and technical partner Oxen have officially launched the club's new third kit for the 26-27 campaign. The release serves as the final chapter in the club's "Toby Tyke trilogy," following the houndstooth-patterned home shirt and star-clustered away kit, bringing the beloved mascot directly to the forefront.
The Oxen Barnsley 26-27 third shirt is predominantly white with light grey elements and bright green trim on the v-neck collar, cuffs, and side panels. Instead of the standard club crest, the jersey showcases a redrawn vintage Toby Tyke mascot in a green kit clutching a football positioned centrally on the chest. An intricate, all-over tonal print covers the body and sleeves, repeating Toby Tyke and the retro "The Tykes" typography, which is also neatly printed on the upper back.
Created in collaboration with creative studio VFILES, club director Julie Anne Quay, and a lifelong Barnsley supporter, the shirt features centered black branding from Oxen and main sponsor The Investment Room, alongside Weston Park Cancer Charity on the sleeve and Parliament on the lower back. The look is completed with white shorts and bright green and white socks.
