OGC Nice and Kappa have lifted the lid on the club’s new away shirt for the 2025/26 season, and it’s one that doubles as a love letter to the Côte d’Azur capital.
Just when you think you've had it all, Kappa go and do something like this. Titled “Nice la Belle”, the new OGC Nice 25/26 away shirt is less about performance wear and more about cultural expression, a jersey designed as an ode to the city’s heritage, atmosphere, and people. This isn’t a kit that hides behind templated aesthetics. The design leans into the visual DNA of Nice itself: the terracotta tones of Old Town facades weathered by the Mediterranean sun, contrasted with the deep greens of shutters, ironwork, and the natural vegetation that winds through the streets.
Anchoring it all is a base of bright, radiant white — a nod to the city’s famed light, which bathes every stone and square in warmth. Together, the palette translates the character of Nice into fabric, as if carrying the city on the players’ shoulders.
To emphasise that connection, the launch campaign went straight to the source. Shot at dawn along the Promenade des Anglais, under palm-lined boulevards, and in the colourful labyrinth of Vieux Nice, the imagery locates the shirt in its natural environment. Every frame is about bridging club and city, stitching football identity into cultural identity.
Kappa’s work with Nice has often strayed into lifestyle territory, but “Nice la Belle” feels like the purest expression yet. It’s a football shirt, yes, but also a piece of Nice — one that seduces like the city itself, inspiring a sense of belonging and pride that transcends the pitch.
