Uniqlo

The J.League has officially unveiled the uniforms for the upcoming 2026 All-Star DAZN Cup, produced in a unique collaboration with Japanese retail giant Uniqlo and exclusively designed by Francesco Risso.

The bold aesthetic of the All-Star collection is deeply rooted in heritage, utilizing a traditional Japanese ink-marbling technique known as "suminagashi" to create a fluid, organic pattern across the fabric. The shirts carry a deeper meaning as a "garment of gratitude," featuring a special bow-style motif on the back that symbolizes the strong connection tying together the league's players, staff, and passionate supporters. To ensure all fans are represented, the collection drops in six distinct colorways mapped to the tournament's division brackets. The top-flight J1 teams will wear red (East) and blue (West), while the combined J2 and J3 divisions are split into four regional subgroups: light blue (East-A), green (East-B), yellow (West-A), and purple (West-B).

Players will also use a special custom match ball produced by Sfida, which boasts a nostalgic design heavily inspired by the iconic football anime Captain Tsubasa.
