In a city where football is more than just a game, where Sunday lunches are louder than goal celebrations and pride is worn like a second skin, Olympique de Marseille and PUMA have cooked up something as authentic as a grilled sardine on a plastic plate by the sea. The 2025/26 home shirt isn’t just new—it’s Marseille.
Unveiled on June 15th during La Régalade du Peuple Marseillais—a beachside get-together fuelled by sun, sea, and a serious dose of local love—the new Marseille home kit for 25/26 from PUMA made its entrance not under a spotlight, but through the people who breathe life into the club. 800 fans, feet in the water, cards on the table, and the smell of chargrilled heritage in the air, came together to see a jersey that feels like it’s always been there.
With an aesthetic that threads the past through the fabric of the future, PUMA taps into OM’s storied legacy. The shirt's design is clean and confident—an immaculate white canvas adorned with a montage of ten historic Olympique logos. The classic polo collar makes a bold comeback, dipped in Olympian sky blue, a nod to the kits worn by generations of warriors at the Orange Vélodrome.
And while the front speaks of tradition, it’s the detail on the back that grounds it in civic pride. Just beneath the collar, the city's coat of arms stands proud, complete with its motto: "Marseille resplendit par ses hauts faits"—Marseille shines through its achievements. It’s a reminder that this is more than a football club. It’s a way of life.
From the streets of Noailles to the cliffs of the Calanques, this jersey echoes the rhythm of the people who make Marseille what it is. It’s not just what’s worn on the pitch—it’s what’s worn around the barbecue, at the family table, in the stories handed down generation after generation.
That spirit of transmission is baked into the official campaign. Club legend Marcel Dib led the charge, trading boots for rolling pins as players joined locals in an osteria to craft proper Marseille-style pizzas. Laughter, flour, and football lore mixed together in a scene that felt more documentary than marketing push. As with everything in this city, the message was clear: if it’s not real, it won’t last.
You don’t just wear this shirt—you inherit it. With every thread stitched with memory and every logo a tribute to the journey, PUMA’s latest drop for OM is less about reinvention and more about reconnection.
It’s not fashion. It’s family. And in Marseille, that makes all the difference.
