Leeds United New Home Kit

Newly promoted Leeds United have released the new home kit for the 2025/26 season. 

Just like the 2025/26 season, Adidas has gone for a clean all-white look, making minimal changes. In their press release, Leeds United said they paid tribute to fans’ matchday journey to Elland Road.

The collar and sleeve cuffs are new, drawing inspiration from the colourfully tiled Lowfields Tunnel. The journey through Lowfields is a long-standing matchday tradition at Leeds.

New Leeds United Home Shirt Can Cost Almost £100

The new Leeds United home kit for the 2025/26 season is now on sale, with the men’s and women’s shirts costing £70.00 each before customisation.

If you want to sport the name of your favourite player, it will cost a minimum of £92.00. A shirt with a player’s name and ‘No Room For Racism’ badge would set you back £97.00.

The shorts are selling for £35.00 and socks for a steep £18. Kids’ shirt, shorts, and socks cost £55.00, £55.00, and £18.00, respectively.

‘Essentially the Same Kit as Last Year’ – Fans Fuming After Launch of New Leeds United Home Kit

Leeds United, who secured Premier League promotion after beating Stoke City 6-0,  earned plaudits for their home kit last season. This year, the fans are far from content, claiming it is “essentially the same kit as last year.”

Under Leeds United’s new home kit announcement video, @SirMonkeySuit wrote:

I mean, there is near enough nothing you can do with a 95% white home shirt. But making a promo video for essentially the same kit as last year for another near enough £100 is horrific.”

@RyanJDay suggested that collars were the only differentiator between the two kits.

He wrote:

Can we just buy new collars for last years?” 

@Quigmeister compared it with the EA Sports FC (formerly FIFA) title, which is infamous for its negligible updates. 
“It’s the “EA FC” of kits, same as last years but with an unnoticeable addition lol”

Leeds fan @lBreakingBradl took a sarcastic jibe at the kit designers, writing:
I must say you’ve knocked it out of the park this year lads… design team deserve a pay rise

@AdamOzzy predicted that Leeds United will struggle to sell this kit, as it is “95%” the same as last year. 
That is the laziest kit design I have seen for years, you can’t do much with white but that is 95% the same as last years kit. Won’t be buying that until the end of the season. Surely won’t be a big seller

@AdamGre42160044 flat out called out Adidas for this season’s design. 
That is absolutely pathetic from Adidas.”

@loinersunited predicted that only people who have “spare £70 lying around” will buy this shirt. 

Unfortunately it might work with leipzig and Salzburg but with this type of creativity unless someone has a spare £70 lying around not many will be buying this

Especially when the players are wearing it. it looks like there’s completely no difference

@Loiner85, meanwhile, criticised the red accents on the kit. 
The red looks horrible on the kit. Not even from a traditional point of view, it just doesn’t go at all

West Ham United also got bashed by fans after releasing their kit for the 2025/26 season. Fans will hope Leeds and West Ham take notes and do better the next time around.
