Top 5 Football Kits That Dropped in May
Some football kits are more than just fabric. They carry stories, symbols, and style statements. In May 2025, a handful of clubs have gone above and beyond, turning their jerseys into cultural moments.
From anniversary tributes and throwback collars to streetwear crossovers and artistic reworks, these designs reflect each club’s unique story. Fashion brands, retro crests, and bold detailing all come together to push the boundaries of what a football shirt can be. Here are five standout kits that turn heritage into headline style.
5. Como 1907 – Limited Edition Fourth Kit
Como 1907’s 2024/25 fourth kit marks a significant collaboration with Los Angeles-based fashion label RHUDE and sportswear giant adidas. The small-town team unveiled this kit during the final match of the season. This limited-edition jersey celebrates Como’s return to Serie A after 21 years and a commendable 10th-place finish under manager Cesc Fàbregas. The design bridges the cultural aesthetics of Lake Como and Los Angeles, reflecting RHUDE founder Rhuigi Villaseñor’s vision of blending luxury fashion with football heritage. This kit stands as a testament to Como’s evolving identity and growing global appeal.
4. AC Milan – Home Kit 25/26
For the 2025/26 season, AC Milan and PUMA have introduced a home kit that reimagines the club’s iconic red and black stripes with a fiery twist. The jersey features flame-like patterns subtly embedded into the fabric, paying homage to the club’s “Diavolo” (Devil) nickname and founder Herbert Kilpin’s vision of a team that would instill fear in opponents. In addition, a monochromatic red club crest complements the design, while white accents on the PUMA logo and Emirates sponsor provide contrast. This kit exemplifies a bold fusion of tradition and modernity, embodying the club’s fiery spirit. The kit is available on the official AC Milan website.
3. Rangers FC – Home Kit 25/26
Rangers FC reunited with Umbro for their 2025/26 home kit, reviving a historic and iconic partnership. The jersey features a royal blue base, with white sleeve cuffs and a fold-over collar. Thin red and blue stripes add subtle detail to the collar, blending tradition with modern style. This design pays tribute to the club’s rich history while signaling a fresh chapter. However, while Umbro branding adorns the kit, the production and commercial aspects remain under Castore, which holds the sub-license for Umbro products in Europe. The kit is available on the official Rangers FC website.
2. RC Deportivo La Coruña – Limited Edition Anniversary Kit
To mark 25 years since their 1999/2000 La Liga title, Deportivo La Coruña launched a special kit in May 2025. Kappa designed the jersey with a champagne-gold base and deep blue accents on the collar, cuffs, and logos. A retro club crest features on the chest, and inside the collar are inscriptions honoring the title-winning season. The subtle striped fabric adds depth and enhances the vintage look of the limited-edition anniversary design. The kit debuted against Granada, serving as a proud reminder of the club’s historic success and lasting legacy.
1. Olympique Lyonnais – Special Edition Anniversary Kit
To commemorate Olympique Lyonnais’ 75th anniversary, adidas Originals has unveiled a special edition kit that blends retro aesthetics with modern design. The jersey features an off-white base with subtle pinstripes, adorned with the club’s historic 1950 crest and the adidas Trefoil logo, a first-time pairing. Red and blue trims on the collar and sleeves add vibrant accents, while a commemorative label marks the 1950–2025 milestone. Moreover, this limited-edition kit debuted during Lyon’s final Ligue 1 match of the season against Angers, celebrating the club’s rich heritage.
