The wait is finally over for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) fans. Following their historic maiden IPL title in 2025, the defending champions, have officially unveiled their armor for the IPL 2026 season.
The new kit is not just a change in fabric but a celebration of their championship legacy, featuring a significant addition that fans have waited nearly two decades to see, a gold championship star.
Whether you are looking to wear the exact high-performance kit worn by Virat Kohli and Rajat Patidar or seeking a comfortable fan edition for match-day screenings, here is the complete guide to the RCB 2026 merchandise.
2026 design jersey
The 2026 jersey retains the franchise’s iconic red and navy-blue identity but introduces a more sophisticated aesthetic. The design features a smooth gradient transition between the colors, moving away from the sharp blocks of previous years.
The most prominent feature is the Gold Star placed directly above the team crest, representing the 2025 IPL trophy. The fabric also incorporates subtle, tonal geometric patterns and lightning motifs, symbolising the energy of the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Puma continues its long-standing partnership as the official kit partner, with new title sponsor Nothing making its debut on the front of the jersey.
Price List: Official match vs Fan editions
