Manchester City and Puma will continue their kit partnership for the 2024/25 Premier League season, so here is everything we know about the release dates for their strips.
The German athletic apparel brand and Etihad Stadium club will embark on a sixth season in partnership in 24/25. Puma and Manchester City joined forces ahead of the 19/20 campaign when the Citizens axed Nike after six years. It marked the pair’s first time in partnership ever.
Puma further creates the home, away and third kits for the Manchester City men’s, women’s and academy squads. So, with that in mind, TBR Football has taken a look at everything you need to know about Manchester City’s 24/25 kits – including their predicted release dates…
When does the new Manchester City 24/25 Puma home kit come out?
Manchester City were one of the first Premier League sides to release their home kit for the 24/25 season. Puma unveiled the Citizens’ latest strip on May 16, 2024 with a sky-blue shirt with 0161 in the trim. It sought to have a subtle reference to the Etihad Stadium side’s roots.
Yet the Manchester dialling code is only one aspect of the Citizens’ kit. Puma is also making Manchester City’s new shirts from at least 95% recycled textile waste. But the design of the shirt is otherwise a simple blue ensemble with dark blue patches on either side of the shirt.
When does the new Manchester City 24/25 Puma away kit come out?
Puma will hold fire before releasing the new Manchester City away kit for the 24/25 season. The German brand even waited until August 10 before unveiling the Citizens’ changed jersey for the 23/24 season. It was the latest City fans had to wait for their away kit in recent years.

Manchester City took the covers off the away kit of the 21/22 term on July 29, 2021 and the 22/23 kit on July 19, 2022. TBR Football predicts Puma will return to a July release for 24/25 over waiting until August to unveil the away kit Manchester City will use in the new season.
When does the new Manchester City 24/25 Puma third kit come out?
Fans might have to wait until August for Manchester City and Puma to release the Citizens’ new third kit for the 24/25 season. The two outfits sought to wait until August in 2021 and 2022. But the Citizens jumped forward to July in 2023, before releasing their away kit third.
Manchester City opted to release their third kit for the 23/24 season during the club’s pre-season tour in Tokyo on July 25. It marked a change from the norm, having released their alternative jersey on August 18 in 2021 and August 4 in 2022, which is likely for this year.
