Leaked: Dortmund 26-27 Third Kit — Neon Purple Puma

TL;DR

• Borussia Dortmund’s 2026-27 third kit has leaked in neon purple, made by Puma, with neon yellow collar trim and yellow Puma logos.
• The images came from BVB accounts @MarkusBvB0, @AaroooBVB and @NarcusBvB0, and Footy Headlines reports an official unveiling on 30 July 2026.
• Puma has used this purple on Dortmund before, but only on a goalkeeper shirt. Shorts, socks and pricing have not been detailed.

What the Dortmund 26-27 Third Kit Leak Shows

Dortmund’s third shirt for 2026-27 is neon purple. Real-life photographs of the shirt surfaced through @MarkusBvB0, with further leaked images credited to @AaroooBVB and @NarcusBvB0, and Footy Headlines has since reported that Puma and the club will unveil it officially on 30 July 2026 with the shirt available from the same day.

That timeline is what makes this leak worth reading closely. Most third-kit leaks arrive weeks or months before anything official, which leaves plenty of room for the final product to differ from the pictures. Here the gap between the leak and the launch is measured in days, so what you are looking at is very likely the finished shirt rather than a sample or a render.

Credit for the original reporting goes to Footy Headlines, who reported it across 28-29 July 2026.

Design Breakdown of the Dortmund 26-27 Third Kit

Colour. A neon purple base, with neon yellow used as the accent rather than the field. For a club whose identity is built almost entirely on yellow and black, that inversion is the whole point of the shirt.

Collar. The reporting describes neon yellow collar trim. No cut is specified, so we are not going to guess at whether it is a crew neck, a V or a polo.

Crest and branding. The standard yellow and black BVB crest is retained without a monochrome or tonal treatment, which is unusual for a loud third shirt. Puma’s logos appear in yellow on the chest and upper sleeves.

What is not known. The leak does not cover shorts, socks, a matching goalkeeper shirt, the sponsor treatment or the retail price. Those should be confirmed at the 30 July unveiling.

How the Dortmund 26-27 Third Kit Compares

The interesting comparison is not with another third shirt, it is with a goalkeeper one. Puma paired a neon yellow outfield shirt with a neon purple goalkeeper shirt for Dortmund’s 2024-25 special kit. So the colour already has a precedent at this club, but until now it belonged to the keeper. Moving it onto an outfield third shirt is the change here, and it means the purple is not arriving from nowhere.

Within the 26-27 range it also sits at the far end. Footy Headlines describes the home shirt as industrial-inspired and the away as dark anthracite with an abstract lightning pattern, both restrained by comparison. The third is where Puma has spent the season’s colour budget. For the full range, see our Borussia Dortmund 2026/27 kits guide, and for how the division stacks up, our Bundesliga 26-27 kit ranking.

When Can You Buy the Dortmund Third Kit?

Footy Headlines reports an unveiling and on-sale date of 30 July 2026. No price has been published, and neither Puma nor the club had confirmed the date publicly as of 29 July 2026, so treat it as reported rather than official.
