Stade Français Paris and Kappa have revealed the away jersey for the 2026/2027 season. Following the pink home jersey, the team has opted for a deep navy blue for their away matches in the Top 14 and Champions Cup competitions. The club describes the design with a simple formula: « Paris as a playing field, the Place de l'Étoile as a signature. »
The jersey is dominated by blue, with thin red stripes on the collar and sleeves. A ton-on-ton pattern begins at the center of the jersey and extends across the torso, creating a cohesive and elegant look. The design draws inspiration from the geometry of the Place de l'Étoile, a central area in Paris known for its 12 avenues converging around the Arc de Triomphe.
The choice of Place de l'Étoile is not accidental. The area, now known as Charles-de-Gaulle Place, was previously called Place de l'Étoile, a name that has remained in common use despite an official name change in 1970. The jersey's design subtly references this historical element without directly replicating the monument, offering a recognizable nod to Parisian identity.
This design contrasts with the vibrant pink of the home jersey and the white third jersey, which features pink lily petals. Kappa has created three distinct visual identities for Stade Français this season, balancing tradition with modern aesthetics. The club has also drawn on its history by revisiting design elements from the early 2000s, blending heritage with contemporary references to the city of Paris.
Reactions to the jersey on the club's Facebook page have been largely positive, with fans praising its appearance and noting that it feels like a traditional jersey. One supporter expressed a minor concern about the children's version needing a sponsor, but overall, the response has been more favorable than previous controversies surrounding Parisian jerseys.
