Wolves 2026/27 third kit by SUDU: the final chapter in a 150th anniversary trilogy

Wolverhampton Wanderers have unveiled their 2026/27 third kit, made by SUDU. It is the third and final release in the club's 150th anniversary collection, completing what SUDU call the "Alchemy of 1877" trilogy.

The design

The shirt uses a black base with an intricate tonal graphic woven across the front, sleeves and back. The pattern draws on elements from the club's coat of arms and continues the visual treatment used across the rest of the anniversary matchwear collection.

Old gold is the main contrasting colour, appearing around the neckline and across the SUDU branding and Wolves crest on the chest. MIDNITE is placed centrally as the main shirt sponsor in white, with additional partner branding on the sleeves.

The black colourway represents the opening stage of the collection's alchemy theme, coming before the white away shirt and old gold home design. It also references the club motto, "Out of darkness cometh light", tying the three 2026-27 Wolves kits together through the anniversary concept.

Further detailing sits beneath the rear collar, where a gold WW150 logo marks 150 years since the club's formation. A SUDU licensed product label is positioned near the lower front hem.

The pro version is made from a textured performance fabric and features a lightweight, heat-applied club crest combining silicone and mesh construction. Development included fit sessions with members of the Wolves first team, whose feedback shaped the cut, materials and finishing details.

The shirt is paired with black shorts featuring narrow old gold piping along the sides, with the club crest and SUDU branding on opposite legs. Black socks complete the strip, with two old gold bands around the upper section and SUDU lettering further down the shin.

The story

This third kit closes out a season-long anniversary project for Wolves. The old gold home shirt and white away kit that came before it now sit alongside this black third strip as three parts of a single design idea, each colourway representing a stage of the club's "Alchemy of 1877" concept for its 150th year.

It is also the first full season of the SUDU partnership being used to tell a sustained visual story rather than three unrelated releases, with the club crest, the WW150 anniversary mark and the "Out of darkness cometh light" motto running through all three shirts.
