Le Mans FC unveils third kit honoring Le Mans Classic ahead of Ligue 1 return

Le Mans FC presented a new third‑kit on 5 July 2026. The green‑and‑white checkered jersey pays tribute to the Le Mans Classic historic motor‑race, echoing the event’s finish‑line flag. The kit, produced by new technical sponsor Adidas, replaces former supplier Kappa and features gold trim and the club’s primary sponsor on the chest.

The alternative shirt will be used on select matches by both the men’s side, which is preparing for its first season back in Ligue 1, and the women’s squad in the second division. Training resumes on 6 July with medical and fitness assessments, followed by a friendly against La Roche‑sur‑Yon in mid‑July. The Ligue 1 campaign is set to begin at the end of August with an opening home fixture against Brest.
