As Amsterdam marks its 750th anniversary, Ajax is paying tribute to the city’s rich heritage with a striking new away kit for the 2025/26 season.
Designed by adidas, the shirt is inspired by the waterways that have molded both the terrain and the essence of the Dutch capital. Bathed in fresh aquatic blue and highlighted with fluorescent green, the kit showcases a fluid, wave-like pattern across the chest – a tribute to the flowing canals that characterize the city.
Beyond a mere visual tribute, the shirt embodies the club’s identity. The phrase “It’s in our water” – long tied to Ajax’s legacy for developing world-class talent – was employed to introduce the design, connecting the club’s enduring football philosophy to Amsterdam’s core.
Similar to the home shirt, this away version incorporates the classic Ajax logo along with a pennant detail on the upper back. This emblem features the city’s founding year (1275), its anniversary year (2025), and the city’s three iconic St. Andrew’s crosses – a subtle yet powerful acknowledgment of its heritage.
Just like the canals beneath its streets, Ajax’s roots run deep – and this shirt ensures the whole world sees it.
Ajax’s 2025/26 away kit is now available via the Ajax web shop, Official Ajax Fan Shops, adidas.nl, and select global retailers.
