Images have been leaked for Leeds United’s 26/27 away kit, and it’s safe to say this will be a popular one amongst us fans.
United’s commercial potential hinges on whether Daniel Farke can keep the club in the Premier League in these final eight games of the season.
One thing that always boosts the revenue at Elland Road is kit sales. Few teams in the country can boast the global reach of Leeds when it comes to selling kits.
Leeds United 26/27 away kit ‘leaked’ as Dominic Calvert-Lewin image emerges
Adidas have done well to call upon Leeds’ heritage of fine kit designs. They’ve tugged at the nostalgia of the fanbase a lot in recent iterations.
This season home strip has stylish nod to the Lowfield’s tunnel outside the ground, while the away kit is a direct homage to the iconic blue ‘Strongbow’ kit of the early 2000s.
Now, an image is doing the rounds of Dominic Calvert-Lewin modelling what appears to be the 26/27 away kit. The exact source of the image is unclear:
The kit is in line with what has been leaked reliably by FootyHeadlines. It’s a yellow strip with the classic Adidas trefoil on display. But, what’s even more exciting is the callback to Leeds’ white rose badge. It’s a badge hasn’t been seen on a kit since 1998.
Side note: The photo shoot looks to be set at Ilkley Moor (LS29). Someone may have to correct me on that, as it’s bugging me.
White Rose Leeds United away kit set to shatter kit sales records at Elland Road
Ever since relegation, it’s felt like Adidas have gone up a level regarding our kit designs. The kits we had in our last three-year stint in the Premier League were quite underwhelming to look back at, for the most part.
However, they’re smashing it out of the park at the moment with these designs. This yellow strip with the white rose could be another that breaks kit sale records.
Our last yellow kit, the 24/25 ‘Smiley’ strip that was part of our Championship title win, smashed club records for sales with over 15,000 sold on the first day alone.
I remember it being quite a significant point of contention about the chances of a yellow kit selling well. It’s fair to say that’s a myth emphatically busted.
Should we get this kit as expected in the summer, expect it to fly off the shelves in record time once again. Let’s hope it’s emblazoned with the Premier League badge and not the EFL.
