Kits

The official squad portraits for the Argentina national team ahead of the 2026 World Cup have been released, giving us a first real look at the special gold sleeve badge. As previously reported, former World Cup-winning nations will wear an exclusive gold-themed patch on their right sleeve during the tournament, setting them apart from the rest of the competing teams.

In addition to the striking gold sleeve patch, the Adidas home kit features the golden 2022 FIFA World Cup champions badge prominently on the center of the chest.

A stylish Leeds United home kit concept has caught the attention of fans online. Created by Leeds supporter and graphic designer @ZK1919, the concept directly adapts the design of an Adidas FC Bayern away kit, transforming it into a Leeds home shirt.

The concept features the classic Adidas Trefoil logo and integrates Leeds United's front-of-shirt sponsor, Red Bull. To match the club's traditional colors, the designer swapped the original red accents for yellow and outlined the Red Bull logo in blue. The concept also sparked discussions among supporters regarding the exact shade of yellow, the choice of the club badge, and the potential constraints of Red Bull's corporate branding rules on future kits.

While purely a fan-made design and not an official leak for the 2026-27 season, it highlights the potential of an Adidas Trefoil Leeds kit. The actual Leeds United 26-27 home kit has been very unpopular ahead of its release.

We can leak images of Adidas Bayern München slides, revealing a design mirroring by the club's upcoming away kit.

The slides feature a white base and a textured strap showcasing the traditional FC Bayern München e.V. crest. As 2026-27 away kit's color palette, the strap is accented with Adidas' signature three stripes in a distinct navy, red, and navy combination.

FIFA is introducing an updated sleeve patch system for all national teams competing in the 2026 World Cup. Now, an official document confirms which kit goes with which kit.

The seven former World Cup-winning nations will wear exclusive gold-themed patches on their right sleeves, while the rest of the teams will use standard black-and-white versions. Additionally, the left sleeve patch will update dynamically, changing for every matchday during the group stage and continuing to update for each knockout round from the round of 32 through to the final.
