New away kit set for competitive debut this weekend

Everton’s new 2026/27 away kit will be worn for the first time on Saturday, when David Moyes’ side face Dundee at Dens Park in their opening pre-season friendly.

The club confirmed the news via its official X account, with kick-off at 2pm BST and the match available live on evertontv. It’s the first official confirmation of the kit’s on-pitch debut since images of the design leaked early on a Liverpool billboard last week, ahead of Everton’s planned release date.

Produced by Castore, the away shirt is a predominantly white design with thin navy pinstripes running the length of the shirt, finished with a navy V-neck collar and sleeve cuffs trimmed in yellow. It follows last month’s release of the club’s royal blue home kit, which introduced CMC Markets as Everton’s new front-of-shirt sponsor in a reported £20m-a-year deal.

Saturday’s match is Everton’s first outing of the summer, roughly seven weeks on from the end of the 2025/26 season, and comes after the squad returned to Finch Farm for pre-season testing before travelling to a training camp at St Andrews. It’s the first of six pre-season fixtures, with Bolton Wanderers, Stoke City, Hamburg and Stuttgart to follow before a home game against Lille and a meeting with Newcastle United at Murrayfield.

Supporters can watch the Dundee match via a one-off pass priced at £5.99, or purchase access to all six pre-season fixtures for £25 — reduced to £20 for Season Ticket Members and Forever Blue+ members.
