Why Are Coventry City Called the Sky Blues?

Coventry City 2026-27 Kits

The new kits mark the return to the top flight. Each shirt is built for the Premier League, the FA Cup and the League Cup.

2026-27 Home Shirt

The home shirt looks back to the 1987 FA Cup win. A deeper sky blue base recalls the shirt worn at Wembley that day. Bold stripes cross the front, edged with navy pinstripes. A subtle four-tone pattern inside the stripes nods to the city centre scenes when the Cup came home. A small "1987" sits under the back collar.

The away shirt is white, with a navy collar and bright orange trim. It gives a clean contrast to the sky blue home kit.
