Manchester City unveil brand new 2025/26 away shirt | OneFootball

Manchester City have formally unveiled their brand new PUMA-designed and manufactured away kit for the 2025/26 season.

City and PUMA have launched their latest edition in what is described as a ‘tribute to the early Cityzens’, in an all-black design that takes inspiration from the Club’s oldest-known kit, combined with metallic details to celebrate the timeless essence of Manchester City.

Manchester City’s earliest known kit dates back to 1884, when the football Club was based in Gorton, and an iconic kit has now been ‘brought to life with a slick new design that honours the Club’s origins’.

Manchester City and PUMA say of their newest design, “The design merges classic and contemporary, with the stylish all-black look taking inspiration from the historic kit, complemented by a traditional collar with a white trim.

“The metallic crest and silver details add a unique contrast to the black base, giving the kit a stunning aesthetic and creating a truly special Away jersey.”

Speaking on the kit, Marco Mueller, PUMA’s Senior Director of Product Line Management Teamsport Apparel, said: “Reimagining Manchester City’s oldest-known kit was a special honour for us, not many people would know that black was the original colour of the Club, and we love to celebrate the culture and identity of our Clubs and what sets them apart.

“Being able to bring an all-black kit was exciting and gave us the opportunity to do something new with the Away jersey. Another first is that this is the first time PUMA has ever shot a campaign fully in black and white which really ties in beautifully to the design of the kit.”

Nuria Tarre, Chief Marketing & Fan Experience Officer for City Football Group said: “We are delighted to unveil this season’s Away kit to fans for the first time – a powerful tribute to our earliest-known kit, when the Club was based in Gorton, Manchester.

“The striking all-black design is a fresh take on a traditional kit with a sleek, contemporary edge. Our fans have always had a deep appreciation for kits that honour the Club’s history, and this kit does exactly that.

“It’s a bold expression of our identity that we hope will soon become a favourite amongst our passionate fanbase.”
