Fluminense reveal claret and gold Umbro third kit, last of current deal | OneFootball

The Deliberative Council of Fluminense approved, by a large majority (53 votes to 2), the launch of the new third kit for the 2025/26 season. The uniform, produced by Umbro, will be predominantly garnet, with gold details, and will hit the market in October, with the launch scheduled for the 15th.

The design features references to the club's Carioca identity. The phrase “we are from Rio de Janeiro” appears on the back, accompanied by a Sugarloaf Mountain patch. The collar, in a roll-neck style, is outlined by a golden line, while the supplier's logos on the sleeves also follow the golden tone.

Among the council members, the new piece is already drawing comparisons to the historic 2012 kit, also garnet and gold, which is considered by many fans to be one of the most iconic of the century.

This will be the last kit released by Umbro under the current contract. The English company has supplied Fluminense's sportswear since 2020, during which time the club won the 2023 Libertadores, the 2024 Recopa Sudamericana, two Carioca Championships, as well as reaching the Club World Cup final in 2023 and the Super Club World Cup semifinal in 2025, as the best Brazilian team in the competition.

Behind the scenes, Puma stands out as the favorite to take over the production of the uniforms starting in 2026, ahead of competitors such as Nike and a third undisclosed brand. Talks are ongoing, but the new agreement is only expected to be made official after the current contract ends.

With the garnet and gold kit, Fluminense is preparing to end its partnership with Umbro in grand style.
