The Premier League has it’s first Midweek Round of Fixtures, and they were the third round games of eight Matches over a six week period, with these games completed between Tuesday 2nd December and Thursday 4th December 2025.
Everton wore their Away Kit for the first time this season/
Tottenham Hotspur wore their 3rd Kit for the first time in the Premier League.
There was one new Goalkeeper Kits used in these games:
Chelsea – Fluro Yellow, Nike Total 90 Goalkeeper Template
Kit Highlights
No team this week wore their default Home Kit in an Away game, the only team to wear their Home Kit was Aston Villa and they did this in “All Claret” against Brighton & Hove Albion.
There was 5 Away Kits used and 4 3rd Kits.
Chelsea wore their 4th Goalkeeper Kit of the season, and the first time we have seen the “Total 90” Keeper Template in Premier League this season.
My favourite “Kit Match Up” of the Matchweek was the game between Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur, the Total 90 3rd Kit Templates look good, so seeing the Spurs one for the first time in the League was always going to be a winner here.
Kit Stats
Overall we have seen 11 Home Kits, 5 Away and 4 Third Kits in action.
There were three Kit variations used in this Matchweek, all Away Kits.
Aston Villa – Home in All Claret, 3rd time used

Newcastle United wore their Away Kit with alternative white socks.
Aston Villa in their Away Kit with alternative white shorts.
There was also 5 new Goalkeeper Kits used this weekend:
Chelsea – Green Nike Template
Liverpool – Grey Adidas Template
Nottingham Forest – Orange Adidas Template
Tottenham Hotspur – Pink Nike Template
West Ham United – White / Black Shorts & Socks
Manchester City – Green Puma Template
Kit Highlights
Aston Villa and Newcastle United are leading the way in the number of kits used this season, both clubs wearing four kit variations in the opening five games.
Tottenham Hotspur wore their 4th different Goalkeeper look of the five games so far, rumours of delivery issues of their new kit at the start season meant they used last season’s yellow template in the first game of the season, and by using the pink version of the current Nike Goalkeeper selection meant they have used their three kits from this season now, so four kits used in total.
West Ham United wore their 3rd choice goalkeeper kit this weekend and its a rare sight nowadays, as its a kit with constrasting shorts and socks, rather than the single colour look that we normally see with Keepers!
My favourite “Kit Match Up” of the Matchweek was the game between Liverpool and Everton, two classic looking home kits for the Merseyside Rivals this season, so seeing them up against each other was a pleasing Kit Match up!
Kit Stats
Overall we have seen 14 Home Kits, 5 Away and 1 Third Kit in action.
There were two Kit variations used in this Matchweek, both the new kits we saw used this weekend.
Aston Villa – Away, with alternative white shorts
Newcastle United – Away, with alternative white socks
Kit Grid – Up to 21st September

The revamped Champions League format is now in it’s second season, and this is also the second season we will review the kits worn in each Matchweek, much like the Premier League Kit Reviews.
And here we go…. just as last season’s competition, the first round of fixtures were played over three days, 16th to 18th September 2025.
The current Kit Overview for Kits worn by The Champions League Teams.
This gives 107 of the 108 Kits of the 36 Teams, but there will be more thanks to a 4th Kits / 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
Arsenal wore an alternative silver shorts and socks for their game at Athletic Bilbao, not a unique look for the club as it was reminiscent to one worn by the Gunners in 2002 when they visited AS Roma, thanks to our friend Denis at Museum of Jerserys for calling this out.
Juventus wore their new 3rd Kit in their home game against Borussia Dortmund, this also meant the Dortmund (wearing their Cup Kit, which has become the norm for European Games) wore alternative yellow shorts, a look they did not use until the knock phase of the competition last season.
Tottenham Hotspur kicked off their campaign in their traditional European “All White” look, which we are expecting to see in all home games this season in the competition.
Bayern Munich wore their Home Kit in the Champions League for the first since Semi Final of 23 / 24 season, having worn 3rd Kit in majority of their games last season. Given that the home kit of 2023 / 24 season was the white shirt with red sleeves, this is the first time they have been in all red since the 22 / 23 competition, 883 days in total.
Eintracht Frankfurt are one of the teams wearing a “Cup Kit” during this season’s competition with an all black kit acting as their first choice look.
Napoli will not be wearing their wonderful 3rd kit in the Champions League this season (the love for this kit was discussed in the latest Episode of The Football Kit Podcast), instead they have a European Away and 3rd Kits, with the all navy 3rd kit being worn at Manchester City.
My favourite Kit Match of the week was the game between Liverpool and Atletico Madrid, the new Liverpool Adidas Home Kit is really delivering in its look (especially in long sleeve), and one of the best examples of the T90 3rd Kits from Nike on show together, it was always going to be this game!
Kit Stats
Overall we have seen the following kits…
19 Home Kits
4 Away Kits
6 3rd Kits
2 “Cup” Kit
Kit Variations seen this week
Union Saint-Gilloise – Home, alternative yellow shorts
Arsenal – Away, alternative silver shorts & socks
Borussia Dortmund – Cup, alternative yellow shorts
Sporting CP – Home, with white shorts

Nottingham Forest were the only team wear an Away Kit this weekend and are the first team to wear two variations of a change kit with their use of navy blue shorts against Arsenal.
Thanks to our friend (and guest of The Football Kit Podcast) Jim Hearson for pointing out that in Ange Postecoglou’s first game in charge of Forest, they actually look like Tottenham Hotspur!
My favourite “Kit Match Up” of the Matchweek was the game between West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur, with the amount of Navy in the Spurs shirt, the alternative socks give a nice balance to the Kit, overall giving a nice kit match!

The final kit to be released in the Premier League this season was the Liverpool 3rd, no surprises in what this looks like as images have been doing the rounds for several months, so it is nice to official pictures and confirmation of Black Trefoil Goalkeeper Template.

Three teams have also worn three Goalkeeper looks so far this season, with Arsenal, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur, with Arsenal using a their second different colour “Trefoil” Kit this season, with the black version on show at Liverpool.
My favourite “Kit Match Up” of the Matchweek was the game between Sunderland and Brentford, Brentford using their Brown Away Kit for the first time, and paired against the Sunderland Home, it gave us an interesting match up.

Kit News
Tottenham Hotspur release their 3rd for the season, a kit launch that was fairly quiet with no fanfare or videos, etc… they are another Nike team that will have “Total 90” look.
This kit using an all yellow look… one interesting use of this kit within the Total 90 template is the navy band for the players name, contrasting against the yellow shirt, this also means the kit will be that rare Premier League shirt that will carry different colour player name and numbers.
Everton are another team to release their 3rd Kit this week, with inspiration taken from their new stadium again and its location, “ripples of the River Mersey” are the basis of the coloured hoops within this black kit and also see’s the “Prince Rupert Tower” logo being used as the crest in the kit.
Nottingham Forest launch the penultimate kit of the Premier League season, this all navy kit with a vibrant (solar) red detailing, there is a subtle black pattern within the body of the shirt.

Any thoughts and comments please let me know over at my Socials… and the Premier League Kit reviews will be back after the International Break.
The 2025 / 26 Premier League Season has now kicked off and just like the last couple of seasons, I will be taking a more in depth look into the Kits each Matchweek, along with any relevant Premier League Kit News!
The current Kit Overview for Premier League is below:
We have 53* out of 60 Kits released so far… with just 7 Teams left to officially release their final Kits (*Fulham 3rd Shorts and socks to be confirmed).
Matchweek 1 Fixtures
Total Kits Used
Kits Worn in Total – 20
Goalkeeper Kits – 20
New Kits this Matchweek
Of course all kits this week are being used for the first time this season, more details will appear in this section as we move through the season and new kit looks / variations are used.
Kit Highlights
Chelsea start the season for a third time in a row with no front of shirt sponsor, however they do carry the “Club World Cup” Champions patch, which will be worn until the tournament is next played, likely to be in four years time.
There were just two kit variation used in these opening fixtures.
Fulham wore their magnificent neon green Away Kit (based on 1998 to 2000 Away Kit).
And Everton wore All Blue at Leeds United.
It did not take long to give us our first goalkeeper mash up of the season, with Newcastle United in the 2nd game of the weekend. Using their first choice keeper colours of blue, this was paired with white outfield socks (Home Alternative) to avoid the sock clash with Aston Villa.
More Goalkeeper Kit highlights from the weekend, Tottenham Hotspur went with last season’s template in their opening game, however it was not last season’s kit as this one had the inverted Nike Ticks (which was worn with 3rd Kits last season). One theory with this is a supply issue of the new goalkeeper kits, Pink and Blue versions of the new Nike Template.
My favourite “Kit Match Up” of the Matchweek was the game between Nottingham Forest and Brentford, one of the nicest Home Kits in Forest matched with Brentford’s lovely 3rd Kit gave us a great looking match!
Kit Stats
Overall we have seen 13 Home Kits, 3 Away and 4 Third Kits in action.
There was just the two Kit variations used in this Matchweek
Fulham – Away with alternative neon green shorts / socks, all neon.
Everton – Home with alternative blue shorts, all blue
Kit Grid – Up to 19th August
Kit News
Watch this space for upcoming kit news, still a few 3rd Kits to released and a couple of potential 4th Kits, so we will take a look at those here as we move through the season as well as other Kit related news to Premier League teams.
In case you have missed it, it is not only the balls that change to Puma this season, the referee’s will also be donning Puma attire from now on. There will be four coloured shirts worn this season.

Any thoughts and comments please let me know over at my Socials…
As we approach the end of June, teams are now starting to kick off their pre-season training and of the course the Club World Cup is still in full swing with the completion of the group stages, I thought it was time to dust off The Heat Press and take a look at some new kits….
To pass these summer weeks I will take a weekly (or maybe more) look at the Kits launched across the English Leagues and beyond, the discussion points and anything else Kit Related that comes up. I will only share those kits that have been officially released, as there are plenty of leaks that do the rounds but we will keep this official.
You will also find my Kit Overview illustrations for each of the four divisions.
Premier League – 11 / 60 Kits
New Kits:
Everton, Home: The first kit to be worn at The Hill Dickinson Stadium, which takes inspiration from the new stadium’s location on the banks of the River Mersey and shows a ‘wave’ that flows throughout the shirt. Blue socks will also return as first choice colour, the first time since 2014 / 15 season, although they were navy blue, this is time royal blue socks will be used in the kit’s default look since 2012 / 13.
Tottenham Hotspur, Away: Tottenham Hotspur have followed up their Home Kit, by launching their Away Kit, this is all black kit with a subtle checked pattern within both the shirt and shorts, the kit is being labeled as “In Darkness we Dare” which is a spin on the club’s motto “To do is to dare”. The first team in Premier League to launch Home and Away kits.
Wolverhampton Wanderers, Home: The second season with Sudu as manufacturer and it’s another classic looking Wolves kit, simple but effective, I like that they keep the Home Kits simple and it works well in my eyes, nice collar too and detailing within the shirt.
Championship – 6 / 72 Kits
New Kits:
Preston North End, Away: A fairly standard offering from Castore in terms of the Home Kit, some nice details within the shirt which take inspiration from Deepdale. The talking point here is the sponsor, Spud Bros… but from my point of view, they are local company supporting their local team, so fair play to them, much more appealing than a betting company, so a win from this Kit Geek.
Millwall, Home: If you follow me on Social Media you will know that I’m a Millwall fan, so been waiting for this one, last season’s Home Kit was wonderful, one of my favourite Millwall kits of all time, so any kit this season will have some big shoes to fill in my eyes…! And they have delivered, a simple and clean look, something classical about this shirt with it’s central placement of logos, one happy Millwall Fan here.
West Bromwich Albion, Home: Macron 2nd season with WBA, an interesting collar and some additional detailing in the socks, which also contain a single stripe.
League One – 14 / 72 Kits
New Kits:
Bradford City, Away: Bradford City launched their new Away Kit at the end of last week, and its light, almost metallic all blue look on the road this season, paired with a Pink 3rd Kit which was released at the end of last season! This kit also carries “UK City of Culture” detail on this shirt.
Northampton Town, 3rd Kit: Its the 3rd Kit first up for Northampton Town and another almost metallic futuristic look in League One, with aqua green, gray kit and detailed with neon yellow… a nice look, that works well for me.
Cardiff City, Home: New Balance remains as Cardiff’s kit manufacturer for a 4th season, and this season will see the club play in pinstripes with white shorts and blue socks!
League Two – 18 / 72 Kits
New Kits:
Shrewsbury Town, Home: A nice looking kit, based on one worn by the club between 1983 and 1985. Some nice details within the shirt and the red trim is something that I particularly like and works for me. Oxen delivering some nice designs again.
Cambridge United, Away: Umbro and Cambridge United are a partnership that have consistently delivered and this season looks to continue that trend, with new Home Kit launched last week and the Away proving to be a classic look that will work perfectly as a change kit!
Cambridge United, 3rd: The full kit set is completed for Cambridge, with this black kit which is paired with gold shorts and black socks, a nice balance from Home Kit.
This week’s Kit News…..
Chelsea wore their 2025 / 26 Away Kit for the first time in the Club World Cup Group Game against ES Tunis. The Kit was worn with alternative socks, rather than the Green default socks.
It appears the Brentford x Joma deal is confirmed, with the launch of their training range this week.
Barnsley have confirmed they are moving away from Puma have signed a new Kit deal with Oxen, who now will supply at least three teams in League One this season and four in total in EFL.
Carlisle United who were relegated into National League last season, launched their new home kit and its another look to the past with Umbro, this time taking one of their classic Away kit looks but giving it a home kit spin as they look to bounce back to League Two this season!
You might wonder why the announcements of Liverpool’s new signings has been using last season’s Nike Kits, the new deal with Adidas does not start until 1st August, so all activity including pre-season friendlies in July will be in Nike playing and training kits.
Manchester City used their alternative shorts and socks with their Home Kit in the final World Club Cup Group game against Juventus, the navy shorts and socks give a really interesting look that I think works well with the navy details within the shirt, a look I hope we see in Premier League this season!
Let me know your thoughts in the comments below or over at my Socials…
The 2024 / 25 Premier League season ended with total of 113 different kits used by the 20 teams, you can find details of all of those kits in my in depth End of Season Kit Review, however of those 113 kits there was 33 kit looks that only got one appearance, these are our “One Kit Wonders”!
Thirteen teams used a kit look just once and for those regular readers and followers, there is no guessing which team provided the most of these….. lets take a closer look at these kits!
Arsenal – 2 Kits
Kicking off with Arsenal, the two kits they used just the once were in games 36 and 37 of the season, wearing alternative white shorts / socks with their Away kit and then in their final home game of the season they wore they 25 / 26 Home Kit.
Aston Villa – 10 Kits
Aston Villa who wore 13 Kits in total make up over 30% of the “One Kit Wonders” this season, with 10 Kits they wore just the single time! They had two Home Kit looks worn once, three Away Kit looks including a look they wore on the opening day of the season (sky blue shorts / socks) and the default Away look (with sky blue shorts), each of the four combinations of 3rd Kit usage was used just once and finally they wore their 25 / 26 Away Kit (with alternative white socks) in their final game of the season.
AFC Bournemouth – 2 Kits
Bournemouth were another team that used two different kits twice both kits were worn on visits to the Manchester clubs, with alternative purple shorts worn with their Away Kit against United and in Bournemouth’s final Away game of the season they used alternative red socks with their Home Kit playing City.
Brentford – 1 Kit
One of my Kit oddities of the season was the the appearance of Claret Socks with Brentford’s Away Kit at West Ham United. Initially it was believed that visitors had used a pair of change socks from their hosts but closer inspection shows that these were standard Umbro Teamwear socks, not from West Ham Kit room…!
Chelsea – 1 Kit
Chelsea are the only team in this list that wore a default kit look just once, their 3rd kit was only used once in Premier League at Brighton & Hove Albion.
Everton – 2 Kits
Everton wore three different variations of their Away Kit, two of these were seen just once, with yellow socks at Manchester City and yellow shorts at Chelsea!
Leicester City – 2 Kits
Leicester City used variations of Home Kit (with 3rd socks) and 3rd Kit with Navy socks, and as Everton were used at Manchester City and Chelsea.
Liverpool – 1 Kit
Liverpool just used the one alternative variation this season and this was the use of white socks with their Away kit at Brentford, these were bespoke alternative socks for this kit.
Manchester United – 5 Kits
Manchester United used ten different looks this season, five of these looks were used just once… with one Home Kit look, two Away and two 3rd Kits, all looks used bespoke alternatives to each of the kits, no mash ups.
Newcastle United– 3 Kits
With Newcastle United being another team using ten kit variations through the season they were always going to have a couple of kit looks used just the once, however it was only their Away Kit looks (white shorts / socks and navy short / white socks) that make up their 24 / 25 kit set that were used just the once, the third single use kit was their 25 / 26 Home Kit which they debuted in the final game of the season.
This also means that the Toon Army also wore the most kit variations multiple times, with 7 different kit looks being worn more than once.
Nottingham Forest – 2 Kits
Nottingham Forest wore their 3rd Kit in four different kit combos with white and sky blue shorts and socks, two of these looks were used once, blue shorts and white socks at Aston Villa and white shorts / socks at Crystal Palace.
Tottenham Hotspur – 1 Kit
Tottenham Hotspur used alternative navy socks with both Home and Away Kit, the Away kit look was used just the once at Southampton, this was also one of two victories in their Away Kit in eight games in total it was used.
West Ham United – 1 Kit
On the final day of the season West Ham United used their Home Kit with alternative sky blue shorts, this was their 3rd different Home Kit look of the season but the only time these shorts were used.
There we have all the 33 Kits worn just once in the Premier League this season.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments below or over at my Socials…
If you are reading this then I am sure you have already seen my End of Season Kit Report for 2024 / 25 Premier League and taken the all the details here around Kit Usage this season and many of you will know about the Kit Stats that I share on my Socials through out the season.
I wanted to build on that and spend a little time with each of the 20 Teams and call out my favourite Kit Stat, Kit Tale, Story or general call out all the teams, although there are some teams with plenty to discuss regarding their kits, this will be my favourite observation per team.
Arsenal
7 Goalkeeper kits were worn by Arsenal, including the only “Mash Up” Goalkeeper Kit of the season, using the Yellow and Black versions of the Adidas Template to produce this wonderful look!
Aston Villa
The most kit variations used by a single team with 13 Kits in total but only 3 of these were worn more than once… Home Kit (Default Look) 23 times, Away with Home Shorts (All White) 3 times and Home with alternative claret shorts / socks was worn twice.
AFC Bournemouth
Alternative red socks worn at Manchester City in their final Away game of the season, this was the Club’s only variation look of their Home Kit this season.
Brentford
Brentford wore just one alternative variation from their three Kits this season and that was the appearance of Claret Socks at West Ham United. Initially it was believed that visitors had used a pair of change socks from their hosts but closer inspection shows that these were standard Umbro Teamwear socks, not from West Ham Kit room…!
Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton & Hove Albion scored the most points in a change kit in the Premier League this season, having scored 19 points in their Away Kit (worn in 14 games).
Chelsea
Chelsea only used their 3rd Kit once in the Premier League this season, worn at Brighton & Hove Albion. In fact this Kit was only worn twice domestically this season, both games against Brighton and within the same week (8th February, FA Cup and 14th February, Premier League).
Crystal Palace
Only variation of kit used by the club this season was in FA Cup Final, with their Home Kit paired with alternative white socks.
Everton
Everton wore their Away Kit in just four game this season but they did that using three different looks, with alternative yellow short and socks used.
Fulham
Fulham were another team that used a change kit just four time, this being their 3rd Kit, which they used twice with alternative white socks (although they do not appear to be Home socks as not carrying the FFC above the Adidas logo).
Ipswich Town
Ipswich Town’s Home was the single most worn outfield kit look this season, being worn 30 times in total.
Leicester City
Leicester City used alternative navy socks with 3rd Kit at Chelsea, a look that worked really well and my favourite for The Foxes this season.
Liverpool
Liverpool used the Nike Goalkeeper template in four different colours, the only Nike supplied team to do so (five if you included the green kit which they also wore with and without the inverted Nike Swoosh logo)!
Manchester City
Another team to wear four Goalkeeper kits was Manchester City, their fourth kit was one that partially created via AI with design input from Ederson, Stefan Ortega, and Rico Lewis, this was part of the promotional advertising for a competition for fans to design their 3rd Kit for 2026 / 27 season!
Manchester United
Manchester United were one of three teams to hit double figures for their Kit Variations this season, each of their three kits used light coloured short variations (White – Home, Light Grey – Away, Off White – 3rd).
Newcastle United
Newcastle United were one of the teams with double digit Kit Variations, wearing 10 Kit looks in total including all possible combinations of their Away Kit with its default and alternative shorts / socks.
Nottingham Forest
Most points scored in 3rd Kit, 16 Points in the 10 games (and 4 Variations) worn.
Southampton
Wore change kits in 18 of the 19 Away games, wearing their Away Kit in 15 Games and 3rd Kit in 3 Games, their 3rd Kit was worn with alternative white shorts in all games rather than the default pink shorts.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham Hotspur had two kit variations used this season, one with Home and one with Away but both used the same pair of alternative Navy Socks.
West Ham United
West Ham wore their Home socks with each of their 3 kits, as default with their Home Kit 22 times, twice with their Away Kit and 4 times with their 3rd Kit.
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolves spent the final half of the season in their Home Kit, wearing it in the final 19 games. The last time they wore a change kit was 29th December and in total wore a change it just once in 24 games in six months, wearing alternative Old Gold Shorts on the road in the second half of the season in all but 1 game!
