The eagle, the defining symbol of Crystal Palace FC, provides the inspiration behind the design of the club’s new 2026/27 kit, nicknamed the Eagle Black Kit, created by Macron and unveiled ahead of the new season. Black once again takes centre stage in the collection, enhanced by red and blue details reflecting the Eagles’ traditional colours, together with an exclusive graphic celebrating the club’s most iconic emblem.
The Crystal Palace FC 2026/27 Eagle Black Kit features a black base with red and blue detailing on the crew neck and sleeve cuffs, complemented by inserts across the shoulders and the lower front of the shirt. The body of the shirt is characterised by a tone-on-tone sublimated graphic depicting the plumage of an eagle, with the silhouette of the bird of prey forming the focal point of the composition. It is a direct tribute to the symbol that has represented the club’s identity since 1973, embodying its strength, ambition and competitive spirit.
The eagle theme is echoed throughout the finer details of the shirt: on the chest, where the white Macron Hero sits alongside a simplified version of the club crest, and on the external backneck, where a tone-on-tone stylised eagle is featured.
The internal backneck is customised with a background in various shades of red and blue, the club logo, the wording “SOUTH LONDON AND PROUD“, the Macron logo and the inscription “Designed in Bologna“, certifying that every garment is conceived, designed and developed at the Macron Campus.
The kit is completed by black shorts featuring side panels that continue the shirt’s graphic, with alternating red and blue details. The black socks feature two triangular bands – one red and one blue – which are wider at the back and taper towards the front. On the reverse, just above the ankle, the CPFC acronym appears, with the first two letters in red and the final two in blue.
The match shirt has a Body Fit and is primarily made from Eco Light Sirena, a fabric belonging to the Eco Fabric family, produced from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic. An Eco Micromesh back panel ensures lightness, comfort and outstanding breathability, delivering optimum performance throughout every phase of play.
The Crystal Palace FC 2026/27 Eagle Black Kit, together with the rest of the collection created by Macron for the English club, is available on macron.com.
