Manchester City Unveils 2025/26 Kit: Sash, Style, and a Clean Break from the Past
City’s 2025/26 kit brings a white sash to the home shirt for the first time. Minimalist, retro, and a welcome shift from last year’s design.
After last season’s overdesigned ‘0161’ kit, Manchester City have gone back to basics. It’s a clear improvement. This season’s home shirt puts the club’s iconic white sash front and centre, confidently set against their traditional sky blue.
It’s a first for a City home kit, and it works. The retro detailing, especially the sharp white collar, feels well-judged rather than overly stylised. It’s a clean execution of a classic idea.
PUMA have opted for clarity over clutter this time around. No hidden graphics, no insider codes. Just a crisp, composed kit that nods to City’s 70s roots without slipping into nostalgia.
It's easily one of the club’s best home shirts in years.
