The 3 new goalkeeper kits on show

  • Liverpool – Yellow

Kit Highlights

Liverpool and Southampton both used their 4th Goalkeeper Kit variations of the season (in just 7 games). Southampton have now used Green, Orange, light orange and now Purple of the Puma template, with Liverpool using Black, Green, Purple and now Yellow.

The Liverpool Goalkeeper Kit was the standard keeper template from Nike this season, however it did not use the rotated Nike “Tick” as seen on their 3rd Kit this season, thanks to our friend Jim for calling this detail out this weekend.

Newcastle United and Southampton continue to wear changes kits in all their Away games this season, with Southampton in their Away Kit in all of these games, Newcastle have used 3 different kit looks in their 4 Away games.

My favourite Kit Match Up of the weekend was the game between Manchester City and Fulham, two kits that worked just well together and Fulham in Red / Black just works as a change kit!

Kit Stats

Overall we have seen 13 Home Kits, 3 Away Kits and 4 3rd Kits

There was just the variations seen this weekend, mentioned above as they used for the first time

  • Newcastle United – 3rd with Alternative shorts and socks

It is being reported that Liverpool had already signed a new kit deal, returning to Adidas for a 3rd time, there is not much detail shared as yet but suggestions are that there will be a formal annoucement in early 2025, ready for the 2025/26 season and will initially be for 5 years up to 2030.

Kit Highlights

Stuttgart followed a tradition we often see with German teams in Europe and used a dedicated European Kit for the first time, with gold details and paired with red socks (different from their Away Kit socks).

On Tuesday 1st October, out of the 18 teams that played 7 in total wore the same kit as in Match 1, with 6 teams playing against each other, with RB Salzburg v Brest, Arsenal v PSG and Borussia Dortmund v Celtic, the only other team that wore the same kit was Inter Milan!

Slovan Bratislava wore their 3rd Kit at Home against Manchester City, who also wore their 3rd Kit so the rare sight of a 3rd Kit v 3rd Kit match up!

BSC Young Boys wore a change kit in The Champions League for the first time since 8th December 2021 when they played Manchester United, they used their all white Away against Barcelona on Tuesday 1st October.

Bayern Munich have yet to wear their Home Kit in the competition, having worn 3rd Kit in first game and now Away kit at Aston Villa.

Bologna launched their 3rd Kit on Monday and debuted it in their game against Liverpool.

One of the Kits of the season, Juventus’ 3rd Kit was used for “The Old Lady’s” visit to RB Leipzig, the second of the possible four Trefiol Kits to used in the Competition, and it looks great in action.

My favourite Kit Match of the week was the game between PSV and Sporting CB, a classic look for PSV Eindhoven and the Sporting Kit being something a little different produced a nice Kit Match up with a real European feel… loved it!

Kit Stats

Overall this Matchweek we have seen the following kits…

  • 21 Home Kits
  • 4 Away Kits
  • 9 3rd Kits
  • 2 “Cup” Kits

There were no Kit Variations used this week, all 36 Kits were in their default look.

Champions League: Match 1, Kit Review

Posted in General, Kit History, Kit NewsTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 11 Comments

This season see a new format of the Champions League, so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and create a Matchweek Kit Review, much like my Premier League ones… so here we are, looking at Match 1 of The Champions League, 2024/25 Edition!

The current Kit Overview for Kits worn by The Champions League Teams.

This gives 103 of the 108 Kits of the 36 Teams, but there will be more thanks to a 4th Kits or Cup Kits that we are likely to see in use over the coming months!

Match 1 Fixtures

Total Kits Used

  • Kits Worn in Total – 36

New Kits this Matchweek

As the first week of the Competition, all 36 kits are being used for the first time!

Kit Highlights

Due to some of the regional country laws around sponsorship gave some slightly different Kit Looks..

Aston Villa wore a Charity Sponsor (one they have used before) in their game at BSC Young Boys, their first game in Europe’s Premier Competition for over 40 years!

Stuttgart wore their Away Kit at Real Madrid, but went with no sponsor to give them a plan chest band on the kit, for a classic look!

Bayern Munich followed their recent trend of wearing change kits in Home European games, by wearing their “Trefoil” Clad 3rd Kit in the emphatic 9-2 victory against Dinamo Zagreb.

As pointed out by our friend Denis of Museum of Jerseys all 11 of Liverpool players were in Green, although different shades in their game at AC Milan.

Manchester City debuted their 4th Kit in their Home game against …., released just last week they were quick to use the kit (even before using their 3rd kit) and it was in a Home fixture, is this a trend we will see for the rest of the campaign for The English Champions!

Only three teams wore Home Kits in Away games, Inter Milan at Manchester City (possible only due to 4th kit being worn at Home), Girona at PSG and Arsenal at Atalanta.

Borussia Dortmund wore their “Cup Kit” at Club Brugge, so could be argued it was actually four teams!

My favourite Kit Match of the week was the game between AS Monaco and Barcelona, a nice Kit Match up with two good kits for these teams this season..!

Kit Stats

Overall we have seen the following kits…

  • 20 Home Kits
  • 8 Away Kits
  • 6 3rd Kits
  • 1 4th Kit
  • 1 “Cup” Kit

Kit Variations seen this week

  • Juventus – Home, with alternative white shorts & socks
  • Aston Villa – 3rd, with alternative white shorts
  • Bayer Leverkusen – 3rd, with alternative white shorts & socks

Premier League: Matchweek 4 Kit Review

The Premier League is back after the first International Break of the season and Matchweek 4 is completed, let’s take some time to look into the Kits worn this weekend!

You can find last week’s report here

The current Kit Overview for Premier League is below.

All 60 Kits have now been released, we have even seen a 61st, more on that below….!

Matchweek 4 Fixtures

Total Kits Used

  • Kits Worn in Total – 42 (+7 Kits this Matchweek)
  • Goalkeeper Kits – 40 (+6 Kits this Matchweek)

New Kits this Matchweek

There were 7 new Kits seen this Matchweek..

Manchester United were in a change kit for the first time this season, using their Away Kit.

Leicester City in their 3rd Kit.

Brentford in their 3rd Kit.

Everton in their 3rd Kit.

Newcastle United in the Away Kit.

Alternative socks for both West Ham (Home Kit) and Chelsea (Away Kit) both in alternative looks for the first time.

There was also 6 new Goalkeeper Kits on show this weekend

  • Arsenal – Pink
  • AFC Bournemouth – Blue
  • Leicester City – Black
  • Manchester City – Light Orange
  • Manchester United – Green
  • Southampton – Green

Kit Highlights

For the first time in 38 years Arsenal were forced to wear a change kit in The North London Derby againt Tottenham Hotspur, this was due to PGMOL ruling that there was too much white in the Arsenal home kit, Arsenal reportedly offered to wear alternative red shorts but their offer was rejected, so it was their Away Kit that was used…!

West Ham were the first team this season to use a Kit Variation, with alternative blue socks with their Home Kit, this was also the only Home Shirt used by an Away team this Matchweek.

This was soon followed by Chelsea, in alternative socks with their Away kit.

There just 2 teams that have only 1 kit so far this season – Fulham and Wolverhampton Wanderers, with Wolves also just wearing the 1 Goalkeeper as well.

Brentford and Everton are the first team to wear Home, Away and 3rd Kits this season in their opening 4 games.

My favourite Kit Match Up of the weekend was the game between Manchester City and Brentford, the two kits working well together to give a nice overall look on the pitch.

Kit Stats

Overall we have seen 11 Home Kits and 5 Away and 4 3rd Kits in action.

The first variations of the season used this weekend

  • West Ham United – Home / Blue Socks
  • Chelsea – Away / Light Orange Socks

Kit Grid – Up to 16th September

Kit News

Manchester City have release their much rumoured “4th” Kit… making it the 61st Kit of the Premier League this season, described as the below on the Manchester City website.

“Marking 30 years since the release of the album Definitely Maybe, it’s definitely City. Co-designed by lifelong Man City fan Noel Gallagher, this collection pays homage to the album that defined an era. Featuring designs inspired by the iconic Oasis album cover”

I managed to pop into the Puma store on Carnaby Street, London on the day of it’s launch to see it in person, whether the team needs a 4th Kit is another debate, but as a Kit and Kit Collection this does look great.

This may not be the last 4th Kit we see, as there is still talk of either Chelsea or Tottenham Hotspur launching a 4th Shirt this season linked with Air Jordan Brand.

The final two teams to release their 3rd Kits this season, did so this week…

Aston Villa, have gone for “Midnight Blue” as their alternative change kit, giving a nice balance between their three kits.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have gone for a more flamboyant colour, “Hyper Voilet” is its description, it’s bold choice to used and will be interesting to see in action.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments below or at @Kit_Geek and I will be back after next weekend’s fixtures.

Harry Kane: 100 Caps

Posted in General, Kit HistoryTagged , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

On Tuesday 10th September 2024, Harry Kane reached the milestone of 100 Caps for England in the UEFA Nations League game against Finland.

I have previously looked back at the Kits worn by Harry Kane as he approached the England Men’s Team National Scoring record – here, I thought now was a good time to revist the kits worn by current England Captain in his 100 National Appearences.

The Debut… Harry Kane made his debut on 27th March 2015 against Lithuania and marked his debut by scoring within 80 seconds of coming on as a second half substitute. The Kit England where wearing that evening was the All White Kit first introduced for the 2014 World Cup.

2015, also saw Kane in the Secondary Kit of this set, an All Red Look at San Marino.

Nike Vapour Template years, 2016 to 2017… regular followers of mine will know that I regard this template as one of the best in recent years and one that really liked England in (however I am aware this is not the common opionion). Kane wore five different variations of the kit, 2 Primary, 2 Secondary and 3rd choice look, scoring in each of these looks.

World Cup 2018, Kane was now Captain of the National Team and a succesful World Cup campaign not only resulted in England unexpectedly reaching the Semi-Finals but also ended with the Golden Boot for Kane, with 6 Goals in the tournament, Kane wore 3 different kit looks in this tournament.

2019 to 2022… The Covid years, which included the delayed Euro 2020 which England reached the final and Kane’s scoring 31 goals in his 40 appearances from 2019 until the start of the World Cup in 2022! There were three Kit Cycles in this time, the main one being the Euro 2020 Kit, which the Primary shirt was only used through the tournament in 2 variations (Navy shorts and White Shorts), the all white look used in the final defeat against Italy.

Kane also had a decent scoring record in the wonderful Blue Secondary Kit in this set, scoring a total 7 Goals in just 5 appearences in this kit, including a Hat-Trick against Albania in November.

2021 was the year that Kane made the most appearances for England with 16 in total, with 16 goals!

World Cup 2022, Kane’s 3rd Tournament as Captain of the Team and another tournament with just the Primary Kit used and like Euro 2020 with 2 variations, one with default navy shorts and one with white shorts.

These kits were used from September 2022 and through-out 2023, a year which he broke the England goal scoring record with a penalty against Italy. The Secondary kit of this set was only used twice and Kane scored just the one goal in it’s first appearance against Germany in The Nations League.

Euro 2024, another tournament for Kane and England, Kane’s 5th in total, 4th as Captain another record which he holds for English National team. The tournament ended in another Final defeat and was also the 3rd Tournament in row England did not wear a change kit, using alternative shorts to provide contrast to the their opponents.

Kane has also scored in current Secondary Kit in it’s only appearance so far against Bosnia & Herzegovina in March 2024 after coming on as a second half substitute, scoring in these 3 kit looks means that he has now scored in 20 different kits total in his England career… (so far)!!

Kit Breakdown – Kane’s Kit usage for England in his 100 Caps.

Goals by Kits – The Kits worn for each of Kane’s 68 England Goals.

  • Primary Kit Goals – 48 Goals in 11 Different Kit Looks
  • Seconadry Kit Goals – 16 Goals in 7 Different Kit Looks
  • 3rd Kit Goals – 2 Goals in 1 Kit Look

Congratuations to Harry Kane on his 100th Cap for England, let me know your favourite Kits in Kane’s England Carrer or any other comments at @Kit_Geek

Chelsea’s 3rd Kit takes inspiration from Punk and Punk Rock which can find its origins in the West London region, a black kit with pink and yellow details throughout the kit.

Liverpool’s 3rd Kit is more a traditional look, with it’s white shirt, black shorts and white socks. The kit celebrates the women’s game and its acceleration in world sport.

Tottenham Hotspur’s 3rd Kit is an all-green Kit is inspired by local heritage, with references to the trees from which the name ‘Seven Sisters’ is derived

It was the 2nd Round of The Carabao Cup this past week, the time that Premier League Clubs enter the competition, and it gave us the first competive use of AFC Bournemouth, Brentford and Southampton’s 3rd Kits.

Newcastle United used alternative white socks with their Home Kit and most interestingly Brighton & Hove Albion using white shorts with their Home Kit at The Amex Stadium against Crawley Town

Euro 2024: Kit Report

On Sunday 14th July Euro 2024 came to close with Spain defeating England in the final at Berlin of the 17th Edition on the European Championships.

As always I like to take a look at the kits worn through out the competition and here looking at the Knockout Phase. You can find the Group Stages and the kits worn in those games here.

Fixtures

Round of 16 Games – 29th June to 2nd July

Quarter-Finals – 5th to 6th July

Kit Log by Group

Group A

Group B

Group C

Group D

Group E

Group F

Kit Highlights

There was only one new Kit variation used in the Knockout Phase of the competition (15 Games) and that was by France, who wore alternative white shorts with their Secondary Kit against Spain in the Semi-Finals. The shorts were bespoke shorts and continued the pinstripe of the shirts into the shorts, much like the default blue pair.

This also meant that France wore their Secondary Kit 5 times in 6 games including all knockout games, and the only time they wore their Primary Kit was with alternative Blue shorts against Poland for an “All Blue” Kit look.

England only wearing their Primary Kit (in 2 variations) through-out the competition means they have now gone 6 years without wearing a change kit in a major finals tournament (19 games out of a possible 21), the last time they wore a change kit was in the World Cup 3rd / 4th Place Playoff game in 2018, a total of 2192 Days (and counting).

Along with France the only other team to wear a change kit in the knock out phase was Netherlands, who wore their secondary kit in their Last 16 Game against Romania.

Four Nations ended the tournament wearing 3 different Kit Variations, along with France, there was Poland (3 Kits in 3 Games), Austria and Italy both with 3 Kits in 4 games including to looks for their Primary Kits.

There we have it, Euro 2024 and all of the Kits Worn.

Italy wore two different pairs of white shorts in their opening two fixtures, with the alternative white shorts for their Secondary Kit have the red / green details that match the shirt and with their all blue look in their final group game meant that was three kits in three games, with three different pairs of shorts.

Another team to have two pairs of shorts of the same colour was France, with Blue Shorts as part of their default Secondary Kit with the matching pinstripe and they then wore alternative blue shorts with their Primary Kit in their final group match against Poland.

Belgium played both Romania and Ukraine in their Group, both playing in All Yellow… interestingly they went with their Primary Kit against Romania and decided to change to their Secondary Kit against Ukraine!

Czechia wore Kit Mash ups in all three of their games, wearing Primary Shorts with Secondary Kit in the first two games, then Secondary Shorts with Primary Kit for a Red / Blue / Blue look in their final match.

England have not set the tournament ablaze as yet, but one small highlight for me has been Jordan Pickford being in three different goalkeeper kits in the group games!

There were just four Nations that wore just one Kit, Scotland and Hungary (both in Group A), Croatia and Romania… the only one of these four teams to qualify to the Knock-out Rounds.

There we have it, the Group Stages of Euro 2024 and all of the Kits Worn, I will be back after the final to round up the Knock-out rounds.
