Burnley FC and Castore have officially revealed the new third strip for the 2026-27 season. The shirt, in dark green and black stripes, finishes the club's set of kits for the year and is directly influenced by the historic textile heritage of Lancashire.
The jersey has vertical stripes in green and black, with subtle micro-line textures incorporated into the green areas to reflect the skilled work of the area's traditional mills. The club's badge is shown in a single colour in the middle of the chest, with the Castore name above and the Vertu Motors sponsor logo beneath, both in plain white. A black crew-neck collar and corresponding cuffs, together with dark shorts and socks, finish the look.
The Castore Burnley third shirt for 2026-27 goes on sale from 17 September 2026. This launch happens as the team looks for better results in their matches, presently positioned last in the Championship with only three points from their opening seven fixtures. Their recent performances include no victories in their previous five games, a sequence they will try to stop in their upcoming match.
The introduction offers a positive distraction away from the pitch during a difficult beginning to the league campaign. Burnley's most recent game was a loss away to Swansea, with Largie Ramazani getting their only goal. Their next match is at home against Derby County, presenting an opportunity to move up from the foot of the standings against another team also near the bottom.
With the primary home and away kits already available, this third strip provides fans with an additional choice to display their support. The design's reference to local history intentionally connects to the club's roots. The team, presently managing fitness issues for players such as Ashley Barnes and Bashir Humphreys, will be hoping the new kit signals a turning point. Supporters can find the most recent squad updates on our injuries page. The kit can be purchased now from the club's official retail outlets.
