Balenciaga Kicks Off Its Soccer Series 2026

Balenciaga has unveiled its Soccer Series 2026, a capsule that reworks classic football-inspired dressing through the house’s distinctive lens.

The collection spans jerseys, tracksuits, hoodies, shorts, caps and socks, all rendered in a palette of navy, black and red with white and gold accents. Familiar sporting motifs are reimagined with new Balenciaga crests, logos and embroidered patches, while a leather jacket adopts the proportions of traditional off-pitch football outerwear.

Adding a personal touch, select stores will offer jersey customisation by professional calligraphers, allowing customers to add their names in handwriting inspired by Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli.

The accompanying campaign stars Tristan Gac, who showcases the collection across Paris through a series of football-focused scenes, from stadiums and training grounds to a playful foosball-table-inspired set.

Available through 4th June, the Soccer Series continues fashion’s ongoing fascination with football culture, viewed through Balenciaga’s oversized and subversive approach.
