Blackburn Rovers have unveiled their 25/26 home kit, marking the 150th anniversary of the club, founded on 5 November 1875 at the Leger Hotel in Blackburn.
The new shirt has been created by Macron, the club’s technical partner since the 2021/22 season, and retains Blackburn Rovers’ traditional half-and-half design, with white on the right, blue on the left, and sleeves in reversed colours.
The sleeve edges feature a blue trim, while the V-neck collar is split between white and blue to reflect the club’s iconic colours. A subtle vertical line pattern runs across the shirt, symbolising the thorny stem of the Lancashire rose, a nod to both the county and the club.

The back neck label features club colours and a gold anniversary crest. The Macron Hero logo is embroidered in black on the right chest, with the club crest on the left. A custom tape along the inside hem displays the numbers 1875, 150, and 2025 with rose detailing. On the outer rear collar, a commemorative black graphic shows two roses flanking a circular emblem with the number 150 at the centre.
The kit includes white shorts with blue side panels and blue socks featuring a white top and twin white stripes, while the shirt is made from Eco Everton, a recycled polyester fabric, which creates a vintage, shimmering effect recalling the aesthetics of kits from the 1980s and 1990s.
