Every Premier League Kit 2025/26 Ranked by the Community
The 2025/26 Premier League season has produced one of the most talked-about collections of football kits in recent memory. From Liverpool's historic switch to Adidas to Manchester City's returning sash design, Sunderland's surprise chart-toppers and Chelsea's 1970s-inspired away shirt — there's plenty to debate.
The RateTheKit community has been rating every single kit since the season began. Here's what the ratings tell us — updated live at ratethekit.com/pl.
The Top Rated Premier League Kits 2025/26
The community has consistently placed a few kits far above the rest. Sunderland's return to the Premier League has been accompanied by a genuinely well-received pair of Hummel kits — their home red-and-white stripe and dark away kit are both sitting near the top of the leaderboard. It's a reminder that sometimes simpler is better.

The Standout Kits This Season
Sunderland — The Surprise Package
Nobody expected Sunderland to be topping the Premier League kit rankings in their first season back in the top flight. But their Hummel home kit — classic red and white stripes with a subtle sand-textured pattern — has proven enormously popular with the RateTheKit community. The away kit, dark with red trim, is drawing equally strong ratings. First time back in the PL, best kits in the league. You couldn't write it.
Liverpool — A Historic Switch
Liverpool's move from Nike to Adidas for 2025/26 is one of the biggest kit stories of the decade. The home shirt incorporates the LFC crest from 1987-1992 — the classic period — and the community has responded warmly. The teal third kit, inspired by historic Adidas designs from the 1990s, is picking up particularly strong ratings. Liverpool fans seem relieved to be back with Adidas.
Manchester City — The Sash Returns
Manchester City's decision to bring back the sash design has divided opinion — in a good way. The sky blue diagonal sash hasn't appeared on a City home kit before in this exact form, despite referencing designs from the 1970s. Community ratings have been mixed but passionate, which is exactly what a good kit should produce.
Chelsea — The 1970s Away
Chelsea's away kit — warm white with subtle red and green pinstripes — reimagines a 1970s Hungarian-inspired design. It's different, it's historical, and the community loves it. Easily one of the most distinctive away kits in the Premier League this season.

The Lowest Rated Kits
Not every kit can be a winner. The community has been less kind to some designs this season. Manchester City's third kit has struggled in the ratings — a dark navy design that many feel lacks the character of the home shirt. Some of the plainer away kits — clubs that have opted for simple white or minimal designs — have also rated lower.
That said, ratings change as more people vote. A kit that starts poorly can recover as it's seen more on the pitch and in matchday photos. Check the live leaderboard for the current bottom of the table.
The Kit Tinder Verdict
Our Kit Tinder feature — where two kits go head-to-head and you swipe to choose your favourite — has produced some interesting Elo rankings that don't always match the star ratings. In head-to-head matchups, Sunderland's home kit keeps winning regardless of who it's up against. Chelsea's away shirt beats almost everything when shown directly alongside a plain alternative.
