Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Pelé are three football legends whose personal or brand logos have appeared on official match jerseys, replacing the kit manufacturer's logo.

For Messi, the "M" logo adorned a special farewell collection kit that tribute his final international appearance for Argentina.

For Ronaldo, the CR7 logo graced Sporting CP’s 23-24 third kit to mark the 20th anniversary of the José Alvalade Stadium's inauguration, the very venue where his performance in a celebratory friendly against Manchester United caught the eye of Sir Alex Ferguson.

For Pelé, Santos replaced the Umbro logo with the official Pelé Brand logo during their match against Atlético Mineiro in April 2026. The occasion marked the beginning of a global partnership between Santos, Umbro, Pelé Brand, and NR Sports, aimed at celebrating and preserving the Brazilian legend's legacy.

Big thanks to @whatthekit_x for spotting and create the collage.

Pattani FC and Thai sportswear brand Maisz have officially launched the club's new away kit for the 26-27 season. Carrying the concept "PANJAK : The spirit of the warrior", the strip takes inspiration from the ancient Langkasuka era and the disciplined fighting traditions of Pencak Silat.

The Maisz Pattani FC 26-27 away jersey comes in a stylish black and gold color scheme, conceived to symbolize dignity, strength, and battle readiness on the road. The black base is detailed with a subtle, tonal traditional motif throughout the fabric, elevated by gold accents on the polo collar, sleeve cuffs, and monochrome club crest. Matching black shorts and socks complete the uniform.

This new release complements the club's previously unveiled 26-27 home kit, which features a half-and-half green and yellow design honoring the royal heritage of the Pattani Sultanate.

FC Lausanne-Sport and Macron have officially unveiled their new 26-27 third kit, titled "Lausanne après minuit" (Lausanne After Midnight). The design celebrates the Swiss city's electronic music heritage and nightlife scene, which began flourishing in the 1980s with youth movements and the rise of local club culture.

The jersey is predominantly black to represent the night, intersected by vivid cyan and coral lines that mimic nightclub light beams. On the upper back sits a stylized soundwave equalizer emblem, while the fabric subtly incorporates glossy ton-sur-ton lettering honoring historic local venues such as Dolce Vita, MAD, D! Club, and Cult Club. Both the modern LS crest and the Macron Hero branding are rendered in reflective silver.

The shirt is finished with matching coral, cyan, and black ribbed trim on the collar and cuffs, alongside clean white sponsor prints across the chest and sleeves. Following the club's 130th-anniversary home shirt and vineyard-themed away jersey, this release completes Lausanne-Sport's set of kits for the 26-27 campaign.

A detailed closer look at On's upcoming football boot has been shared by oceboots, giving us the best look at the prototypes yet (they somehow managed to get their hands early on them). The prototype, stamped with the internal code ON-DCPT-KM210, features the Swiss brand's revolutionary LightSpray technology, which constructs a featherlight, seamless upper via a mechanized spray-on process entirely free of glue and stitching. Paired with a sleek lacing setup and an aggressive traction soleplate, the experimental model is currently undergoing high-level testing with Mbappé for club and country ahead of a projected retail launch in 2027.
