In the year of the club’s 120th anniversary, Macron and Castres Olympique complete the 2026/27 Game Set with the launch of the Occitan club’s new Third Kit.
Following the Home and Away versions, the new third kit offers a bolder and more contemporary interpretation of Castres Olympique’s identity. The shirt combines black and light blue, with a tone-on-tone graphic across the fabric that enhances the design while keeping the club’s history and sense of belonging at its core.
The shirt is predominantly black, with light blue details on the polo collar and sleeve cuffs, as well as across the kit’s graphic elements, creating a clear contrast against the black base. A tone-on-tone pinstripe graphic runs across the body of the shirt, adding depth to the design while preserving its clean, understated look.
The chest features the Macron Hero, applied in light blue silicone, alongside the Castres Olympique crest, finished in 3D on a suede-effect base. The club’s history is referenced by the “ENSEMBLE DEPUIS 1906” wording, embroidered on the back neck, accompanying the kit throughout the season in which Castres Olympique celebrates 120 years of history. At the lower back of the shirt, an embossed detail also reproduces the club crest.
The same attention to detail continues on the black shorts, finished with light blue inserts along the lower side edges. The black socks echo the shirt’s colour contrast with a wide light blue band across the upper section and the Macron Hero on the front, while the year 1906 appears in light blue on the back.
The shirt features a Body Fit cut. As with all technical garments developed by Macron for its sporting partners, Castres Olympique’s new Third Kit is made using Eco Fabric, 100% polyester fabrics made from certified recycled plastic, reflecting the shared commitment of the club and the brand to more responsible production. The main fabric is Eco Armevo, specifically developed for rugby to provide optimum performance and high resistance to tearing. Inserts in Eco Bodytex and Eco Strong Mesh contribute to ensuring lightness.
