Hanoi FC

Vietnamese V.League 1 side Hanoi FC and Adidas have unveiled the first kits from their new partnership, with the design immediately sparking discussion over its unusual short Three Stripes layout across the shoulders.

The shirt uses a new Adidas template with short 3-Stripes on the shoulders and a classic crew neck, a design primarily seen on takedown jersey (fan version). The same template is also used by Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula 1, including the team's latest “Vanda Bloom” collection. The purple colourway closely matches Hanoi FC's traditional identity.

The shirt uses a mixed construction: the body features standard Adidas Climacool fabric, while the sleeves use Player-version material.

Hanoi FC and Adidas have officially revealed the club's new home, away, and third kits for the 26-27 season. The launch marks a major milestone for the Three Stripes, representing Adidas's first official kit supplier partnership with a professional Vietnamese football club under a new three-year agreement, taking over from previous manufacturer Jogarbola.

Created to celebrate the club's 20th anniversary under the concept "Legend Wear The Next Chapter," the 26-27 collection features three distinct designs. The home shirt stays true to Hanoi FC's signature identity in royal purple with white details. The away jersey arrives in victory gold with dark accents, while the third kit opts for a clean pearl white base with black trim, styled to transition seamlessly from the pitch to everyday streetwear.
