Manchester United Reveal 2025/26 adidas Home Kit Inspired by Old Trafford
Manchester United have officially revealed their 2025/26 adidas home kit, ushering in a new chapter as they prepare for the upcoming Premier League, FA Cup, and EFL Cup campaigns. This season’s design pays homage to the club’s spiritual home Old Trafford, also known as the legendary “Theatre of Dreams.”
A Tribute to Old Trafford’s Legacy
At the heart of the new kit lies a bold, abstract sleeve graphic, crafted using various shades of red. This striking visual element is more than just decorative it’s symbolic. The pattern reflects key architectural and emotional aspects of Old Trafford, from the pitch and stands to the tunnel and the stadium’s iconic silhouette, especially during serene non-match days.
According to Jurgen Rank, Senior Design Director at adidas:
“The colour red is fundamental to the club’s DNA. There have been many different expressions of it over the years and, for this season, we wanted to do something a little different, using the sleeves as a canvas. The abstract graphic stays true to the club’s DNA while providing an innovative look and feel to an otherwise classy and classic jersey.”
Classic Design Meets Modern Detail
The 2025/26 home jersey retains Manchester United’s traditional identity while embracing a modern aesthetic. The shirt features:
- A sleek V-neck collar in black and white
- Matching black and white sleeve cuffs
- Signature black adidas Three Stripes on the shoulders
- White adidas and sponsor logos for sharp contrast on the red base
- A subtle ‘Theatre of Dreams’ sign-off at the back of the collar
The combination of these elements results in a jersey that balances visual elegance with cultural authenticity perfect for both die-hard fans and kit collectors.
