Fluminense and Umbro Unveil 25/26 Third Kit: A Love Letter to Rio de Janeiro

Fluminense and Umbro have released the club’s third kit for the 2025/26 season, drawing deep inspiration from the city of Rio de Janeiro. The design blends heritage, elegance, and cultural rhythm into a shirt that reflects the identity of the Tricolor Carioca both on and off the pitch.

Design Inspiration

The latest third kit is described as a love letter to Rio de Janeiro, celebrating the city’s connection with football, rhythm, and soul. Every element of the design aims to capture the essence of the city in a modern, visual expression.

Color Palette and Details

The shirt features a deep maroon colour palette, finished with gold detailing that evokes the look of a sunset over Guanabara Bay. The gold accents add a classy touch to the overall aesthetic, while the Umbro double diamond and Fluminense club crest sit prominently on the chest in gold, radiating heritage.

Cultural Graphics and Symbols

Subtle graphics woven across the design pay homage to Rio de Janeiro’s cultural heartbeat. References include the swirling vibrancy of Carnival, as well as the globally recognised silhouettes of Christ the Redeemer and the Lapa Arches. Each graphic is intended to tell a story of timeless culture sewn into the fabric.

Special Jock Tag

A distinctive feature appears on the bottom of the shirt: a jock tag reading “Somos do Rio de Janeiro” (“We are from Rio de Janeiro”). This detail ties the whole design together, serving as a reminder that the club does not just represent the city — it is the city.
