Leaked: Germany 2026 World Cup Check24 Kit — Fila Replaces Puma

The Leak

Comparison portal Check24 has confirmed Fila as the new supplier for its Germany 2026 World Cup fan jersey, ending a partnership with Puma that ran through the Euro 2024 promotional cycle. Pictures of the finished shirt surfaced on 27 May 2026 and were first published by Footy Headlines, who flagged the manufacturer change as the most surprising element of the release.

This is not Germany’s official DFB match jersey — that contract still sits with Adidas — but the Check24 fan shirt has become a cultural fixture in Germany during major tournaments. The Euro 2024 Puma version was distributed at scale through the app and ended up on terraces across the country, which makes Fila’s appointment a notable foothold for the Italian brand in a market dominated by the big three.

Design Breakdown

The shirt sticks to a classic black-and-white promotional palette. A thick black V-neck collar runs straight across the front, mirrored by black cuffs that finish each short sleeve. The body is white, which keeps the design legible alongside the sponsor block and the centred crest.

A monochrome DFB eagle sits high on the chest, positioned just above the Check24 wordmark — a reversed layout compared with the previous Puma-built editions, where the sponsor sat below a smaller crest. Fila branding is kept understated: a single black logo on the left sleeve, with no repeating tape or wordmark anywhere else on the body. The overall effect is sharper and slightly more retro than the 2024 version, leaning on contrast rather than graphic detail.

How It Compares

The Euro 2024 Puma-made giveaway shirt used a rounder neckline, a tonal sponsor treatment, and Puma’s wordmark across the chest. The 2026 Fila edition flips the silhouette to a structured V-neck, brings the sponsor and crest into a tighter vertical stack, and pushes the manufacturer mark to the sleeve. It reads more like a 90s training top than a modern marketing tee.

It is also worth separating this jersey from the Adidas-supplied DFB match kits that German fans will actually see on the pitch in June. If you are after the home, away, or goalkeeper kit being worn by Nagelsmann’s squad at the tournament, the official ranges are stocked at our 2026 World Cup category.

When Can You Buy It?

The short answer: you cannot buy it. The Check24 jersey is a closed promotional item, distributed free to users who play the company’s World Cup prediction game in the Check24 mobile app, with sign-ups expected to open in the weeks before kickoff on 11 June 2026.

For supporters who want a shirt they can actually wear into a match or train into Berlin, the route is the Adidas DFB range. Match-day cuts, replica fits, and goalkeeper editions for the tournament are already in stock — start with the Mens Germany 2026 World Cup Special Jersey, the Kids Germany 2026 World Cup Goalkeeper Kit, or the Mens Germany 2026 World Cup Away Long Sleeve Jersey.
