Update - Friday, 24 January 2025 Manchester City and Puma have started the fan vote for the Fan x AI-designed Manchester City 26-27 third kit. 10 designs made it to the final vote, with the winner to be announced in 2026.
We are disappointed by the results
In total, almost 180,000 kits were designed by City supporters around the world with the help of AI, using text prompting, customization tools, and intuitive sliders. Voting is open at aicreator.puma.com, and fans can submit their vote until 11:59 PM GMT on January 29.
The designs of the Puma Manchester City 26-27 3rd kit are, really, anything but magnificent. Instead, many of them are the contrast of bangers, and all of them could have easily be designed without the help of any AI.
The entry phase for submitting a Puma Manchester City 26-27 third kit design (designed by fans with the help of AI) ended on 20 December 2025. The top ten designs of the AI Manchester City 26-27 3rd jersey will be unveiled for voting in January.
Update - Early January 2025
We do not know which 10 designs Manchester City and Puma have chosen (or if they even have already chosen them). Several designers have shared what they created for the Manchester City AI contest - check them out below.
