Real Madrid have gotten of to an unbeaten start in La Liga with 5 wins and 3 draws from 8 games. They sit second, only 3 points behind Barcelona.
Their first big test of the season, the Madrid Derby ended in a 1-1 draw at the Estadio Civitas Metropolitano. It was a heartbreak result for Real Madrid who looked to be on course for securing the win, only for Angel Correa to score an equalizer in minute 95.
While the season rolls on, we’ve got leaks for next season’s kit courtesy of Footy Headlines. The insights have sparked not just excitement but also a tad bit of nostalgia.
In no shock, the 2025/26 home kit will continue to feature the club’s classic white base – a timeless look that is synonymous with the club.
However, what stands out this time is that Adidas plans to compliment the kit’s traditional white with fine metallic stripes, of-course in the form of the iconic three stripes running down the shoulders.
This sleek touch adds a bit of polished flair to design and gives it a flashy uplift from the white, while making sure the colours don’t stray away from the club’s heritage.
Along with this silver addition, the leaks suggest a bright yellow detailing along the sides of the shirt, which runs all the way to the bottom. The yellow is also featured as a pinstriped design in the middle of the round neck collar of the jersey.
It will also be interesting to note if the kit continues to use black for the Adidas logo or does that too transition to a metallic silver colour, completely doing away with the black.
Comparing this leak to the 2024/25 kit reveals a few notable differences.
The new kit does away with the black outlines we’ve seen in the recent past and transitions into silver and yellow, offering a fresh look. The integration of yellow also means that the design takes into consideration the true colours of the club logo.
If we wind back time, to some of Real Madrid’s older kits, keen eyes might notice that the 2025/26 leaks seem to be utilising retro details.
The 2009/10 Real Madrid kit marked the first season with Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, making it a significant kit in the club’s history. The element picked up from this kit is the golden detailing- which is similar to what we’re seeing in the yellow accents of the upcoming release.
Likewise, the silver accents in the new kit are reminiscent of the 2014/15 home shirt, a year that saw Real Madrid triumph in the Champions League, with Ronaldo netting an incredible 16 goals in 12 matches.
Unsurprisingly early fan reactions to the leaked design have been overwhelmingly positive.
For many, the inclusion of gold and silver tones instantly sparks memories of the 2009/10 kit – a season associated with some fans’ GOAT- CR7.
“It reminds me of the GOAT!”
Moreover the mention of silver and gold accents apart from bringing back memories of the 2014/15 kit also pleases the true design and fashion lovers, who adore the subtle accents standing out on the white base.
“This kit is a timeless masterpiece. The clean white with subtle accents is true Real Madrid style.”
Although official details of the 2025/26 Real Madrid home kit are still under wraps, early leaks have given fans a teaser of what to expect.
The kit promises to strike the perfect balance between modern style and traditional elegance. Drawing inspiration from past designs like the 2009/10 and 2014/15 jerseys, it offers fans a walk down memory lane while looking ahead to the future.
We’re not too far from fans picking up on more leaks and details and soon enough edits of star players like Bellingham, Mbappe and Vinicius being edited onto them.
