Press release Official statement New plan
  • RK Zagreb will enter the 2026/27 season with Adidas as its new technical partner.
  • The club unveiled white home and blue away jerseys, both featuring two stars above the crest to represent its European titles.
  • The kits use Adidas’ Climacool technology and design features intended to support comfort and movement during matches.

Two stars now sit above RK Zagreb’s crest, marking the Croatian club’s two European titles. They are the defining detail on the new jerseys the champions will wear during the 2026/27 season.

The new kits were unveiled as Zagreb began a partnership with Adidas, which will serve as the club’s technical partner. The home shirt keeps the club’s familiar colors: it is primarily white, with blue running from the shoulders down the full side and three white Adidas stripes along that panel.

The away shirt is blue, with gold details around the collar and sleeve edges. Its three white Adidas stripes sit on the shoulders. The stars appear on both versions and are intended to recall the biggest successes in the club’s history.

It is always a special feeling to put on a new club jersey, and it is an even greater pleasure that a partner such as Adidas stands behind it again this season.

· Filip GlavašThe RK Zagreb captain welcomed the new partnership and kit.

RK Zagreb captain Filip Glavaš said wearing a new club shirt always felt special, while the presence of Adidas added to the satisfaction. He said the design combined tradition with a modern look, and that the stars served as both a reminder of past European success and an additional source of motivation.

The shirts also include features designed for professional handball. Durable fabric is intended for demanding match conditions, while elastic material around the collar and sleeves provides comfort and a closer fit. Side and underarm panels allow greater freedom of movement. Climacool technology helps disperse sweat, while quick-absorbing and fast-drying fibers help keep the skin feeling fresh.

The jersey is actually much more than equipment. It represents the identity of the club, the team and our fans.
