Designed and produced by New Era, the 2026 team kit will be worn by
drivers Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz, as well as engineers and team
personnel, throughout the upcoming season of 24 races in 21 countries around
the globe.
The apparel collection offers a range of silhouettes in
men’s and women’s fits engineered to meet the performance and travel demands
of the team. Signature outerwear pieces include the rain jacket, padded
jacket and gilet, and a nod to the brand’s sporting heritage with a standout
varsity jacket. Underneath, sleek tees, tech polos, and hoodies feature in
dark navy with tonal graphics inspired by the tyre marks left on track
during high-speed corners.
An extensive headwear offering across
men’s, women’s and youth sizing anchors the range, including the curved
9FORTY, the 9FIFTY snapback, trucker, bucket hat, knit beanie, and the
iconic fitted 59FIFTY. Each design features the Atlassian Williams F1 team
logo to the front, complemented by New Era’s embroidered flag in white on
the left-hand side. To complete the collection, a range of accessories will
be available to fans.
Design details from the kit have also been
incorporated into a special fan-selected testing livery which will be on
Williams’ 2026 car, the FW48, when it runs for the first time in Barcelona
next week.
The new collection is brought to life through Creating
the Culture of Speed, a campaign starring Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz that
fuses timeless design heritage with British Formula 1 innovation to redefine
performance, style, and culture beyond the circuit.
Both the
collection and campaign reflect Williams’ bold identity and ambitions on and
off the track. One of the most iconic and successful teams in F1 with 114
wins, nine Constructors’ World Championships and seven Drivers’
Championships, Williams is transforming in all areas to win World
Championships again.
The team enters 2026 with real momentum
following its most successful season since 2016, securing fifth place in the
Constructors’ Championship with 137 points, two Grand Prix podiums and its
first-ever Sprint race podium.
Alongside the team kit, fans can
expect a broader range of New Era x Williams products throughout the season,
including lifestyle collections and race-specific releases, designed to
bring fans closer to the team than ever before.
The Atlassian
Williams F1 Team Kit will be available for fans to buy from January 21st
2026 via williamsf1.com, neweracap.eu and select retailers.
