Manchester City’s 2026/27 Home Jersey Introduces a Sky-Blue Gradient

Manchester City and PUMA have introduced a different treatment of the club’s familiar sky blue for the 2026/27 home shirt.

The football jersey uses a gradient that is darker around the shoulders and becomes lighter further down. Metallic details on the crest and sponsor branding complete the design.

Club colours with a different finish

The shirt keeps sky blue at the centre of City’s identity while changing how the colour appears across the fabric.

The release forms part of the club’s “Not Your Typical City” campaign. According to the launch announcement, the gradient represents ambition and progression.

Two versions for different uses

The Authentic jersey uses PUMA’s ULTRAWEAVE fabric, alongside dryCELL and ThermoAdapt technologies.

The Replica version offers the same visual design in a more casual shape. PUMA states that this version uses RE:FIBRE technology and contains 95 per cent recycled polyester sourced from textile waste.

City announced the home shirt through its official retail channels. Buyers comparing versions should check the individual product description and size guide.
