Mercedes has lifted the veil on its 2026 merchandise collection, and the colors worn by George Russell and Kimi Antonelli could reveal clues about the new F1 livery. The team launched its latest apparel line in collaboration with official partner Adidas, featuring modernized designs while maintaining the classic style that defines the German team in Formula 1.
Adidas continues as Mercedes’ official partner for the second consecutive year. The new range of clothing, footwear, and accessories draws on the brand’s expertise in creating technical yet stylish apparel suitable for everyone, not just athletes. “By enhancing simplicity and comfort without compromising style, each piece in the new collection is tailored for the wearer. From drivers to engineers and mechanics, we optimized both fit and functionality,” the team stated.

The 2026 collection includes polos, jackets, shirts, and suits. As seen in the photos at the end of the article, George Russell and Kimi Antonelli wear the new Mercedes 2026 merch, which combines the team’s distinctive colors and patterns with Adidas’ cutting-edge technology. The goal is to create modern, refined designs that deliver excellent performance and comfort both on and off the track.
The range features classic official driver shirts with engineered hexagonal prints and reimagined Ultraboost 5 sneakers with a striking gradient from aqua green to black.

Drivers on the new teamwear
George Russell commented: “In this new Adidas teamwear collection, our team’s performance was at the center of the design. Every detail matters to us, and what we wear is no exception. This outfit allows me to stay fit, focused, and perform at my best, providing not just for myself but also giving our team a critical advantage in our pursuit of both championships.”
Kimi Antonelli added: “It’s amazing for me to work with a partner like Adidas, who understands the need for innovation. I can’t wait to take a significant step forward in my second F1 season. Their commitment to optimizing fit and functionality allows me to go on track feeling confident and fully focused on my performance and achieving results.”
As George Russell and Kimi Antonelli prepare for the upcoming technical reset, this partnership highlights the increasing overlap between high-fashion and elite motorsport engineering. While the primary goal is success on the circuit, looking the part remains a key component of the Mercedes brand identity. Whether the teal-to-black gradient seen on the new merchandise eventually adorns the sidepods of the 2026 challenger remains one of the most exciting mysteries of the pre-season.
