The Scotland World Cup 2026 home kit is out now and it's lovely. Though most nations haven't actually qualified for the tournament yet, Adidas have pre-empted the rush for picking up new tops by dropping kits for the World Cup way ahead of time. Should Scotland get to the tournament, this is a top that references their last World Cup

With winter approaching, it's time for footballers (and journalists) to start bringing out the extra layers. A certain amount of wrapping up is permitted for footballers, such as wearing long-sleeved undershirts...as long as they match the main colour of the kit that's worn on top, of course. But snoods are not an option: have been outlawed by the football authorities for quite some time, despite briefly looking like becoming a popular optional part of the winter football kit.

A new Watford football kit inspired by former chairman Elton John will be used for a single game. The design celebrates the 50th anniversary of the music icon becoming chairman of the club in 1976. According to the club, John, who has supported the Hornets since the age of six, was "heavily involved" in the design, which is inspired by the artwork of his Diamonds album. The kit will only be worn on Saturday when Watford host Blackburn Rovers in the Championship.

Wrexham's new home kit for the 2025-26 Championship season draws inspiration from the iconic 1981-82 jersey, featuring a classic fold-over collar and stripe patterns.

The design of Madrid's new kit for the 2025/26 season draws inspiration from the refurbished Bernabeu seating, merging modern aesthetic with a nod to the club's rich history.

Nike has created the England Women's Euro 2025 away kit to be both eye-catching and unique, distinguishing it from traditional designs with a bold dark blue color scheme.
