RB Leipzig 26-27 Away Kit: Red With Botanical Print
RB Leipzig’s 2026-27 away kit is a bright red Puma shirt with yellow Red Bull branding and a navy ribbed collar and cuffs crossed by yellow stripes. A tonal leaf-vein graphic across the front is a tribute to Leipzig’s botanical garden. No release date has been announced.
TL;DR
- RB Leipzig’s 2026-27 away kit is bright red, with yellow branding and a navy-and-yellow ribbed collar and cuffs.
- Puma has printed a tonal leaf-vein graphic across the front as a tribute to Leipzig’s botanical garden.
- No release date was given in the published details.
What Has Puma Revealed?
Leipzig’s second shirt for 2026-27 is red, which takes a moment to process given the club’s home shirt this season is the white one. The away strip is where Puma has put the colour, and it is not a muted red either — it is a bright, saturated shade, with the yellow Red Bull mark sitting straight on top of it.
The colour is not really the story, though. What Puma has done with the space around it is, and the reference is local rather than footballing.
Details and imagery were published by Footy Headlines on 8 August 2026.
Design Breakdown
Colour. A bright red base across body and sleeves, with yellow carrying all the branding and dark navy blue introduced only at the collar and cuffs.
Collar and cuffs. A simple ribbed crew neck in navy, crossed by yellow stripes, with the sleeve cuffs matching. This is the only place on the shirt where a third colour appears, and it does most of the work in stopping the red reading flat — it is also the detail that gives an otherwise modern shirt a slightly retro edge.
Graphic. A subtle tonal print runs across the front torso in intricate, intersecting lines resembling the vein structure of a leaf. Footy Headlines reports it as a tribute to the Leipzig Botanical Garden, which it describes as the oldest garden of its type in Germany. The print sits close enough in tone to the base red that at normal viewing distance the shirt still reads as plain.
Sponsor and branding. The Red Bull sponsor sits centrally on the chest in yellow, with the Puma cat in yellow above it on the wearer’s right.
Crest. The club crest keeps its standard full-colour roundel rather than being recoloured to match the yellow branding, which makes it the one element on the shirt that breaks the two-tone scheme.
Hem. A small circular badge sits at the bottom of the shirt.
How Does It Compare to the 26-27 Home Kit?
The two shirts are running opposite strategies. The 2026-27 home kit is a clean white design where the restraint is the whole idea. The away shirt is the loud one, and it carries the season’s storytelling — the botanical print, the navy rib, the full-saturation yellow.
| Element | 2026-27 home | 2026-27 away |
|---|---|---|
| Base colour | White | Bright red |
| Trim | White throughout | Navy with yellow stripes |
| Graphic | — | Tonal leaf-vein print |
| Branding colour | — | Yellow |
| Release | Released | Not announced |
Against last season the change is more straightforward, and worth a look if you want to see how the away slot has moved: Leipzig’s 2025/26 away shirt is the direct predecessor to this one.
It is also a neat example of a club with almost no history using a city’s history instead. Leipzig were founded in 2009, so there is no archive of old shirts to raid the way Bayern or Dortmund can. Pointing the graphic at a landmark in the city sidesteps that problem entirely.
