The wait is almost over for Villans eager to see what they will be wearing at Villa Park next season. An early listing on an international Adidas website has given fans a clear look at the Aston Villa 2026-27 home jersey, and it features a bold departure from recent traditions.
Here is a breakdown of everything you need to know about the leaked kit, from its retro inspirations to its pricing.
A Retro Revival: Ditching the Blue Sleeves
The most striking takeaway from the 26/27 leak is the absence of Aston Villa’s traditional full sky-blue sleeves. Instead, Adidas has opted for an all-claret base, drawing heavy inspiration from the club’s classic 1969 kit and the fan-favorite Luke 1977 shirt from the 2018-19 season.
While the block-blue sleeves are gone, the classic “claret and blue” identity remains intact through sharp, contrasting accents.
Key Design Features
• The Collar: The shirt boasts a retro-style polo collar in sky blue, complete with a clean white v-neck insert.
• The Details: Adidas’ iconic three stripes run down the shoulders in sky blue, matching the thick bands on the sleeve cuffs.
• The Crest: A modern, monochrome pale blue version of the club crest sits proudly on the chest alongside the standard Adidas performance logo.
• Sponsor: The leaked retail image currently shows the shirt without a front-of-shirt sponsor, offering a clean, sponsorless look that many traditional football purists love.
Pricing and Availability
Based on the leaked screenshot from the Adidas New Zealand storefront, the standard adult Aston Villa 26/27 Home Jersey is priced at $180 NZD (which translates roughly to £85 / $110 USD, aligning with standard premium kit pricing for the upcoming season).
With the 2025-26 Premier League season wrapping up, an official announcement and full retail launch from Aston Villa and Adidas are expected very soon.
