cruzeiro Esporte Clube will honor the Brazilian national team with a yellow third kit for the 2026 season, according to reporting by Itatiaia on 2025/10/19. The colour choice is a direct tribute to Seleção, as the Brazilian squad prepares to compete in the FIFA World Cup hosted across the United States, Mexico, adn Canada.
The unveiling of Cruzeiro‘s planned uniform lineup for 2026 offers fans a first look at the club’s aesthetic direction as it approaches the milestone year. Beyond the striking yellow third kit, the club intends to return to a streamlined design for its primary and secondary jerseys, impacting both on-field appearance and merchandise offerings.
Cruzeiro’s first kit will be entirely blue, utilizing the ‘teamgeist’ template currently featured in their 2024 third uniform, and will reinstate the five standalone stars representing the club’s championship titles. The conventional white reserve kit will also adopt the same template but with a more minimalist aesthetic, reducing intricate detailing.
In addition to the updated designs, Cruzeiro will introduce long-sleeved versions of both the first and second kits. This addition mirrors a growing trend among elite European clubs and is expected to be rolled out across all teams sponsored by the kit provider in Brazil during 2026.
While the collection is currently undergoing final internal review at the club, potential adjustments to the designs remain possible before the official launch.
