Crystal Palace have finally released the new home kit for the 2026/27 campaign.

The Eagles have opted to commemorate the 1976/77 home shirt on the 50th anniversary of that season, unveiling a white strip with a red and blue sash going diagonally across the middle.

It is set to be worn for the first time in the friendly against Swindon Town on Saturday afternoon.

Any changes you would make to this predicted lineup? 🤔

Really hope Romain Esse impresses 🤞

Some Crystal Palace fans like it, some hate it. However, what the majority will enjoy seeing is the sight of the unique patch we get to wear in the UEFA Europa League this season after winning the UEFA Conference League last term.

UEFA to recognise Crystal Palace with bespoke sleeve badge

The new white home shirt will come complete with a slightly different sleeve patch compared to the one everyone else will be wearing in the UEFA Europa League this season, with ours set to read ‘UEFA Conference League 2026 winners’ around the edge as you can see below.

Under the lights at Selhurst Park on a European night, this new white kit is going to look absolutely fantastic – even more so with UEFA Conference League winners branding on it. What a time this is to be a Crystal Palace fan.

It remains to be seen what Crystal Palace have planned for the away kit – and it is also a mystery as to whether there will even be a third shirt for the 2026/27 campaign.

The Eagles will discover their UEFA Europa League opponents for the league phase when the draw takes place on Friday 28th August – the same day as our first home game of the season, a Premier League clash against Manchester City.

With the likes of Juventus, AC Milan, Bayer Leverkusen and Marseille set to be involved in the league phase, there could be some truly memorable away days for Crystal Palace fans next term.

What are YOUR thoughts on the new home kit? 🤔

I would prefer the sash not to have white gaps, but still quite happy with it 😍

Hopefully, Pierre Sage can pick up from where Oliver Glasner left off in Leipzig.
