Mexican football club jersey releases

Overview

Leaked images of upcoming third kits for Mexican football clubs Pumas and Chivas initially sparked discussion among fans. The Pumas design reportedly draws inspiration from the 1968 Olympic flame and includes a tribute to Enriqueta Basilio. Conversely, early leaks of the Chivas kit received negative reactions due to its departure from traditional red and white stripes in favor of an all-black aesthetic.

Following the leaks, Chivas officially unveiled its 2026-27 jersey, produced in collaboration with Nike. The finalized design features a black base with gold accents inspired by charrería tradition. It incorporates graphic patterns evoking ‘piteado’, a traditional Mexican embroidery technique, and utilizes historical branding such as the 1908 monogram and interlaced ‘C’ and ‘G’ initials.
