60‑Year Milestone
Oldham Athletic and Puma have officially unveiled the club’s new third kit for the 26‑27 season. The launch marks exactly 60 years to the day since Oldham first took to the pitch in tangerine on 20 August 1966, a milestone that the club is celebrating with a throwback design.
Design Details
The Puma Oldham Athletic 26‑27 third jersey is predominantly tangerine orange, complemented by clean blue and white detailing. The shirt features a buttoned henley collar with white and blue trim, two‑tone ribbed sleeve cuffs, and white side panels. A blue owl crest sits on the chest alongside a white Puma Cat logo and the white Bunkabin sponsor. Blue shorts and tangerine socks complete the look of the new Oldham Athletic 26‑27 third strip.
Technical Features
Constructed using Puma dryCELL moisture‑wicking technology and RE:FIBRE recycled materials, the kit delivers performance and sustainability. The dryCELL fabric keeps players dry during matches, while the RE:FIBRE material reduces the environmental impact of the production process.
Availability
The new Oldham Athletic 26‑27 third kit is now available through the club’s official channels, allowing fans to celebrate the 60th‑anniversary milestone in style.
Context
The tangerine colour pays homage to the club’s historic kit, while the blue and white accents nod to the club’s traditional palette. The owl crest, a symbol of the club’s identity, is rendered in a modern blue shade that contrasts sharply with the tangerine base. The inclusion of the Puma Cat logo and the Bunkabin sponsor reflects the club’s current commercial partnerships.
Conclusion
The kit’s release coincides with the club’s 60th‑anniversary celebrations, providing a tangible link between Oldham’s past and its future. The design blends nostalgia with contemporary technology, and the kit is now available through the club’s official channels.
