How did we rank the best Brasileirão kits?

Two tests. First, the idea: does the shirt tell a story that only fits that club? Second, the execution: colour, collar, crest and pattern, and whether the details hold up close. We left out training and pre-match tops and counted one shirt per club. Brazilian clubs play a calendar-year season, so the third kits released between July and September 2026 sit alongside the home shirts released in January, which is why shops label the whole set 2026/27. We are an independent retailer of replica supporter shirts, not affiliated with any club, league or manufacturer. For the European picture, see our best 2026/27 third kits and best 2026/27 home kits rankings.

Which are the ten best Brasileirão 2026 kits?

1. Vasco da Gama third – Nike

Vasco’s first season with Nike after the end of the Kappa deal produced the shirt of the year. The third is pale yellow, meant to recall old sailcloth and navigation charts, and it drops the famous diagonal sash altogether. The red Cross of Malta sits alone on the chest, the trim is dark, and a small caravel is printed inside the V-neck. Fans agreed: in a ge (Globo) poll of 2026 third kits, reported by NetVasco, it won with 29.41% of 52,827 votes. Shop the Vasco da Gama third jersey or the full Vasco range.

2. Internacional third – adidas

The boldest shirt in Série A. A large red oriental dragon wraps the burgundy base across the front, sleeves and back, with a gold SCI monogram in the centre of the chest. The theme is Japan: Inter beat Barcelona in Yokohama to win the 2006 Club World Cup, and a seal on the back of the collar carries the coordinates of Yokohama to mark the 20th anniversary. See the Internacional third jersey.

3. Palmeiras third – Puma

Palmeiras were founded as Palestra Itália by Italian immigrants, and this azzurri blue shirt leans all the way into it. The template is based on Puma’s Italy 2006 World Cup shirt, the Savoy Cross from the 1916 kit sits on the chest under a red star, and the lettering is metallic gold. A small map of Italy appears on the hem. Pick up the Palmeiras third jersey or browse all Palmeiras shirts.

4. Corinthians third – Nike

A goalkeeper tribute worn by outfield players. The light blue shirt with navy trim and a 1970s polo collar recreates what Tobias wore on 5 December 1976, when he saved two penalties against Fluminense in the semi-final remembered for the “Invasão Corinthiana”, the thousands of fans who travelled to the Maracanã. The club’s 2026 home and away shirts are part of Nike’s 50th-anniversary campaign for the same day. Our Corinthians third kit article has the full story, and the shirt is the Corinthians third jersey.

5. Flamengo home – adidas

Red and black hoops will never surprise anyone, which is the point. Adidas went back to a polo collar and a look that recalls Flamengo’s 1986 and 2014 shirts, with white trim and white shorts. The third, red with no football crest and a rowing emblem instead, nearly made the list too; read about it in our Flamengo third kit article. Shop the Flamengo home jersey or every Flamengo shirt.

6. Fluminense third – Puma

Fluminense’s first year with Puma ended with a green third trimmed in golden beige. A dark watermark map of Laranjeiras, the neighbourhood where the club was founded, covers the body, and the old shield returns above a classic polo collar. It is a quiet shirt that rewards a closer look. See the Fluminense third jersey.

7. Bahia third – Puma

Deep blue with gold trim, a gold V-neck and a single-colour crest. The tonal pattern comes from the necklaces of the Pataxó people, and the club worked with FINPAT on the design. The back carries the line “O Brasil sempre esteve aqui” (Brazil was always here). It is one of the few shirts this year with a story that is not about the club itself. Find it as the Bahia third jersey.

8. Grêmio third – New Balance

New Balance replaced Umbro at Grêmio and opened with a 1996 anniversary shirt. It is blue with tonal pinstripes and a white polo collar piped in gold, with a gold single-colour crest. The shirt marks 30 years since the 1996 treble season, and the gold numbers 04, 06 and 12 refer to the months of 1996 in which the club won the Gaúcho, the Recopa and the Brasileirão. See the Grêmio third jersey.

9. Santos third – Umbro

All black, in a jacquard fabric that alternates matte and gloss stripes. Umbro took the idea from Santos’s 1997 shirts, adding a retro collar, white raglan piping and the 1997 version of the crest. “Resiliência e determinação” (resilience and determination) is printed on the neck. It is the simplest shirt on this list. Shop the Santos third jersey.

10. Cruzeiro home – adidas

Royal blue with a V-neck, and a tonal print that repeats a silhouette of South America with a star. It marks 50 years since Cruzeiro won the 1976 Copa Libertadores. A traditional home shirt with one clever detail. Pick up the Cruzeiro home jersey.

Which kits just missed out?

Atlético Mineiro’s orange Nike third, inspired by the flares of the club’s “Rua de Fogo” welcome, came close. So did São Paulo’s white New Balance home shirt with the gold line “Dentre os grandes, és o primeiro” on the back of the collar, and Botafogo’s off-white Mizuno third with the club’s 1904 monogram. Botafogo also released a pink fourth kit for Pink October, covered in our Botafogo fourth kit article.
