West Ham have officially teased their new 2026-27 home kit, giving fans a first glimpse at their inaugural release with new kit supplier New Balance. The club posted a close-up image of the shirt on social media today, signaling that a full reveal is imminent. This marks the beginning of West Ham’s partnership with New Balance, who take over from previous long-term supplier Umbro.

On the same day West Ham confirmed that 42,000 season tickets for the club‘s first season after relegation to the Championship have been sold. This shows the big support from the Claret and Blue Army regardless of the drop from the Premier League.

Excitement and an increasing hope that things are getting better are following David Sullivan’s and Karen Brady’s departure from the Board. The new interim CEO Karim Virani has even launched an official fan consultation on the future of West Ham’s crest which has repeatedly been criticised by some parts of its supporters.

And with the fixture list of the new season now confirmed and opening day in August approaching there could be even more season ticket renewals until the deadline on Friday.

I am looking forward to a new season in a hopefully beautiful new kit, with new opponents to play and a new spirit of winning in search for an instant promotion!

Come on you Irons!
