When Birmingham released their new 2022-23 home jersey back in late June, the club's official announcement claimed that the football shirt features a graphic print “that will be enjoyed by no other club in the UK”. It seems they have chosen their words very carefully.
Nike Give Birmingham Kit Design "That Will Be Enjoyed by No Other Club in the UK"
For now, none of the other 7 English clubs sponsored by Nike have presented a new shirt with the same graphic pattern, but there are already two examples outside of the UK. These two well-known teams from Germany and Switzerland will wear the same graphic pattern in the 2022-23 season.

The new 1860 Munich 2022-23 home jersey features a white main colour with a light blue graphic pattern, while the BSC Young Boys 2022-2023 home shirt comes with the same graphic pattern in black on top of a yellow base.
