Fulham's 2026/27 away kit 'leaked' online as fan favourite throwback revealed
Details of the new Fulham away shirt for the 2026/27 Premier League season appears to have leaked online ahead of its official release.
The brand new Fulham away shirt for the forthcoming 2026/27 Premier League season appears to have been leaked online – with new digital mock-ups of the kit emerging ahead of the kit’s official release.
Footy Headlines have mocked up an image of the brand new jersey based on alleged inside information, which suggests a throwback to a fan favourite from days gone by. 3 Added Minutes has been unable to independently verify the supposed leak.
What Fulham’s new away kit for the 2026/27 season looks like - according to leaks
The digital render of the new shirt – which can be seen in the social media post above on the right – suggests that Fulham’s away kit will feature a distinctive red and black checkerboard design last seen on their kit 30 years ago.
The kit is a callback to the club’s change strip from the 1996/97 season, on the left of the social media image above, when Fulham were back in the old Division Three – a very different era for Fulham, but the kit was a firm favourite with supporters at the time.
There are some difference between the original, which was designed by Le Coq Sportif, and the new kit which is produced by Adidas. The squares on the design are much chunkier than they were three decades ago, and the new jersey also features flashes of white on the collar and sleeves, as well as across the shoulders which will be emblazoned with the three stripes found on most Adidas kits. The collar has changed too, going from black to red.
The club crest and manufacturer’s logo – in this case Adidas’ alternate trefoil badge – occupy the usual places on the chest while the new front-of-shirt sponsor will be picked out in white text.
It must be noted that the render is not a genuine image of the finished product and small differences can be expected when the shirt is released – assuming that the leak is indeed accurate as expected. The official launch date for the new shirt is not yet known.
Fans react to Fulham throwback kit
The initial response to the alleged leak from Fulham supporters on social media seems to be positive, as might be expected given the kit is a retro design which harks back to one of the club’s more popular shirts of the modern era.
The comment by one supporter that he “loved it then [and] love it now” seems to have captured the general mood, although of course a look at the finished product will be necessary before most fans make their mind up - but early indications are that it will be easier on the eye than the vivid lime green change kit in use during the 2025/26 season.
No date for the release has yet been announced, although the launch of the new home shirt – the design for which has not yet been leaked online – is expected in the coming days. The club have already launched the pre-match jerseys for the coming campaign and the first-team training gear, which are now available for purchase.
