As it has become a tradition, French team Racing Club de Lens released a special kit to honor Sainte-Barbe. And like in previous seasons, it is a very stylish one.
Saint Barbara is the patron saint of miners, firefighters, and pyrotechnicians. The Sainte-Barbe festival is observed every 4th of December.

This is the Lens 2023-24 Sainte-Barbe Special football shirt, made by Puma.
The Puma Racing Club de Lens 2023-2024 Sainte-Barbe Special shirt combines modern design with historical reverence, featuring a deep green base color with gold accents. The graphics on the shirt are hand-drawn in a distinctive style as a tribute to the Sainte-Barbe festival.
The front of the Puma Lens 2023-24 Sainte-Barbe Special shirt bears key symbols of the mining heritage of the region, including Saint Barbara's tower, a stained-glass portrait, slag heaps, a miner's lamp, and the "Sainte-Barbe" inscription. In honor of the Bollaert-Delelis stadium's 90th anniversary, the back of the shirt displays the years "1933-2023," a stadium pictogram, and Félix Bollaert's name.
