FC Nantes were forced to debut an emergency all-white kit for their Ligue 2 match against AS Saint-Étienne on Saturday night. The unexpected kit choice came after neither Nantes' standard yellow home strip nor their dark away kit was approved for the match by the French refereeing body (Direction de l'Arbitrage) and the LFP, citing color contrast issues against Saint-Étienne's traditional green shirts.
Supplied by Macron, the impromptu kit features a clean white base paired with monochrome black branding for both the technical supplier and the FC Nantes crest. The jersey retains the club's regular sponsors, with Synergie across the front and Hellfest above the player name on the upper back, complemented by matching white shorts and white socks.
Color clashes with Saint-Étienne often pose a tricky challenge for visiting teams, but the refusal of both primary options forced Nantes into preparing this off-catalog solution on short notice. The bespoke look provided a stark, monochrome departure from the club's traditional yellow and green identity under the lights at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.

Macron and FC Nantes have officially unveiled a special Octobre Rose kit for the 26-27 campaign, marking the first time in the club's history that Les Canaris will wear pink. Designed to raise awareness and support the fight against breast cancer during Pink October, the jersey will be worn in official competition by both the women's and men's first teams at the Stade de la Beaujoire throughout the month.
The Macron FC Nantes 26-27 Octobre Rose shirt is built around a soft pastel pink base decorated with a brushstroke pattern inspired by the deconstructed awareness ribbon in tonal shades. Deep burgundy trims accent the collar, cuffs, and monochrome branding, while a pink ribbon sits proudly on the chest between the Macron Hero and the embroidered club crest. On the back neck, eight embroidered pink ribbons replace the traditional stars that represent Nantes' eight French league championship titles.
Burgundy shorts and pastel pink socks with a burgundy turnover band complete the full kit. In support of the initiative, 50% of the profits from shirt sales will be donated directly to local charities Madame S and Ma Parenthèse, along with the FC Nantes endowment fund.
