The 25/26 Umbro Fluminense third kit captures the essence of the great city of Rio de Janeiro in every stitch, bringing together heritage, elegance, and cultural rhythm for a timeless look. It’s the type of shirt that moves beyond the pitch as a modern expression of what it means to be a Tricolor Carioca.
Fluminense and Umbro have just dropped the club’s third kit for 2025/26, and it arrives as a love letter to their hometown Rio de Janeiro. The latest threads draw inspiration from the city’s deep connection with football, rhythm, and soul and turn it into a look that is as beautiful to look at as the views of the city.
Engulfed in a deep maroon colour palette, the shirt perfectly embodies Brazilian elegance. It’s gold detailing adding those classy touches whilst glistening like a sunset over Guanabara Bay. But the kit holds much more than just aesthetics, laced with subtle graphics all across the design that nod to Rio’s cultural heartbeat. From the swirling vibrancy of Carnival, to the globally recognised silhouettes of Christ the Redeemer or Lapa Arches.
Every piece of thread in this design carries timeless culture, it’s more like a story sewn into the fabric. Flashed in gold, the Umbro double diamond and Fluminense club crest sit proudly on the chest, radiating with heritage. But featured subtly on the bottom of the shirt, there’s a feature that ties the whole design together. A special jock tag reading ‘Somos do Rio de Janeiro’ (‘We are from Rio de Janeiro’) signs off this love letter perfectly. A reminder that the club doesn’t just represent the city, it is the city.
