For Tottenham Hotspur fans, the latest away kit leak for the 2025-26 season has struck a nostalgic chord, reviving memories of a young Gareth Bale. Once a promising Welsh right back who turned winger thanks to his qualities at Spurs, Bale’s time at the North London club is what pushed him to stardom.

The leak of Tottenham’s upcoming away kit brings to mind the 2012-13 third shirt— a jersey that Bale wore during one of his most memorable seasons at White Hart Lane.

Bale made 44 appearances for Spurs that season and had amazing attacking output. He scored 21 goals and also had 4 assists, he ended the season with a total of 26 goals across all competitions. It was this season that pushed Real Madrid to break records and bring the Welshman to Madrid. (stats from Transfermarkt)

The 2025/26 Spurs away jersey is leaked as a half and half jersey, a look not many clubs sport anymore. It features a black and “Lt Iron Ore”- a subtle greyish tone colour scheme, as seen on leaks from Footy Headlines.

The black base will mark the first time since the 2014-15 season that Tottenham have opted for this darker shade in their away attire.

The design at the boundary of the away kit looks as if the colour from one side evaporates and transforms into the other. A honeycomb-like texture can be seen in some places along the middle as the colours transition.

Apart from that, the rest of the kit has a textured line finish that gives it a woven look. The shoulder cuffs have alternate colours with respect to the half and half look. The neckline is also entirely black. The badge and sponsor logos remain white, giving it a clean contrast from the darker colours.

This kit almost pays homage to the 2012/13 third Kit for Spurs made by Umbro.

The 2012/13 away kit though, had a more simple and clean half-and-half look, split right through the middle. While the shoulders had alternate colours like the current leaked away kit, the cuffs were bright yellow, which made the kit standout.

It’s this very kit Bale wore in his last season, and fans reminisce about him in a tight-fit kit running down the flank.

Fans have had a positive response to the kit, while there’s a minority that feels an all black kit would look better. Some wonder if there will be players next season who’ll make their mark and potentially make this kit their own.
