RC Lens and Puma have today unveiled the club’s 2026 Sainte-Barbe jersey, continuing a yearly tradition that pays tribute to the region’s mining heritage.
Released ahead of the December 4 celebrations honoring Saint Barbara, the protector of miners, the new Lens 2025-2026 Sainte-Barbe special strip once again connects the club’s identity with its local history.

For the first time since the start of the Sainte-Barbe series in 2021, Lens moves away from the usual black-and-gold look. The Puma RC Lens 25-26 Sainte-Barbe special jersey switches to blue and red, directly referencing the colours of miners’ workwear—blue garments paired with a red scarf. The inspiration mirrors similar tributes seen in other mining regions, including Saint-Étienne’s special kit revealed on the same day.
The Puma RC Lens 2025-26 Sainte-Barbe special football shirt features gold detailing across the logos and numbers, while an embossed retro crest with the miner’s lamp sits at the centre of the design.
