2026-27 Football Kits: Catanzaro, Oldham, Roma and More

US Catanzaro 1929 will not be hiding anywhere in Serie B next season.

Their new 2026-27 away shirt from EYE Sport is a blaze of bright yellow, wrapped in a swirling, marble-like graphic in off-white that runs across both front and back. It’s busy, bold, and impossible to miss.

Red trims slice through the design on the V-neck collar, sleeve cuffs and side panels, tying the look back to the club’s traditional palette. The crest sits over the left chest, flanked by red EYE Sport branding and a dominant Coop sponsor splashed across the torso.

With the away strip now revealed, Catanzaro’s full wardrobe is set: the classic red home, a Mimmo Rotella-inspired third kit, and this high-impact yellow number for trips up and down Italy.

Oldham’s tangerine time machine

At Oldham Athletic, the new kit drop is about memory as much as fabric.

Puma’s 2026-27 third shirt lands exactly 60 years on from the day Oldham first stepped out in tangerine, on August 20, 1966. The club leans straight into that anniversary: the jersey glows in tangerine orange, clean and unapologetic.

Details are sharp rather than fussy. A buttoned henley collar edged in white and blue. Two-tone ribbed cuffs mirroring that trim. White side panels cutting through the colour block. On the chest, a blue owl crest stares out alongside a white Puma Cat and white Bunkabin sponsor.

Blue shorts and tangerine socks lock in the retro-modern balance. Underneath the nostalgia, the tech is current: Puma dryCELL for moisture management and RE:FIBRE recycled materials throughout. The shirt is already on sale through the club’s usual outlets, a wearable slice of Latics history.

Moneni Pirates lean into the skull and crossbones

In Eswatini, Moneni Pirates have decided there’s no point in subtlety.

Their 2026-27 collection with Umbro turns the club’s pirate identity into the main event. All three shirts carry a large skull graphic that dominates the lower front of the torso, a statement piece rather than a background motif.

The home kit goes dark and menacing: charcoal and black as the base, lifted by white and small flashes of red. The away strip flips the script with a crisp white design, the skull rendered tonally for a more understated, but still unmistakable, look. The third kit swings back to aggression with a vivid bright red base, bold white graphics and black trim carving out the details.

Each shirt carries Umbro branding on the chest, the skull-and-crossbones badge, and a central sponsor logo, underlining a clear message: this is a club leaning fully into its identity.

Roma tick off 1 to 99 and write a quirky record

In Rome, history has arrived in a different form: a numbers game finally complete.

AS Roma have become the first club to see every squad number from 1 through 99 worn in an official match at least once. The missing piece was 86. That gap closed when 19-year-old Portuguese attacking midfielder Rodrigo Mora arrived from FC Porto and chose the last untouched number.

Italian football’s relaxed approach to shirt numbers made this possible. Where some leagues clamp down on high or unconventional digits, Serie A has long allowed players to express themselves through the back of the shirt.

Roma’s journey from 1 to 99 reads like a cross-section of eras and styles. The timeless: Francesco Totti’s 10, Daniele De Rossi’s 16. The modern stars: Paulo Dybala at 21, Romelu Lukaku with 90, Stephan El Shaarawy in 92, Mile Svilar at 99. The list runs through Wojciech Szczęsny at 1, Cafu at 2, Aldair at 6, Mo Salah at 11, Alisson Becker at 19, Gabriel Batistuta at 33, Henrikh Mkhitaryan at 77, all the way to Mora finally claiming 86.

A commemorative graphic pulls all 99 shirts together, highlighting standout names attached to each number and visually underlining the scale of the feat. From academy graduates to global icons, every digit has now had its moment under the Giallorossi lights.

Zrinjski Mostar break from tradition on their travels

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, HŠK Zrinjski Mostar have stepped away from their traditional white – at least when they leave home.

Macron’s 2026-27 away shirt for the club is a striking black-and-red piece built around a bold geometric checkerboard pattern that runs across the front and sleeves. The red blocks carry subtle diagonal striping, giving the shirt extra depth when it catches the light.

White plays a supporting role: on the V-neck collar, sleeve cuffs and the Macron Hero logos. The club crest sits on the left chest, while the M.T. Abraham Group sponsor stands out in white across the centre. INTERAGENT Mostar branding appears on the lower back to complete the commercial layout.

The kit will be worn in domestic league and cup action and in European fixtures, a clear visual contrast to Zrinjski’s more traditional home look.

Macron outfits Al-Shabab across the board

In Oman, Al-Shabab SC have gone for a full refresh.

The Omani Professional League side have unveiled new home, away and goalkeeper kits for 2026-27, all produced by Macron and all built around a tight, modern palette.

The home shirt pairs a deep navy blue body with stark white sleeves. Fine yellow piping traces the shoulders, adding a sharp accent. A crossover V-neck keeps the lines clean, while navy shorts with white detailing round off the primary strip.

The away kit simply inverts the balance: a clean white torso, dark navy sleeves, and the same yellow trim tying the range together.

For the goalkeepers, Macron has dialled up the visibility. A vibrant light blue jersey is covered in a complex geometric shard pattern across front and sleeves, giving the keepers a distinctive silhouette. Every shirt carries the Macron Hero on the chest, the Al-Shabab crest and sponsor Alraed Investments.

From Rome’s numerical milestone to pirates with skulls on their chests and tangerine tributes in Oldham, the new season’s shirts are already telling stories long before a ball is kicked.
