As previously announced VX3 have been appointed the club's kit and leisure wear provider for the next three seasons.
The club had to respond quickly in response to the bankruptcy of Hummel's UK arm, Elite. An arrangement that still had over one year to run.
Nevertheless, a full selection process was undertaken, with VX3 proving to be the best option in terms of quality and commitment to tight delivery times. In addition, VX3 offered a very generous gift of kit provision and were one of the only providers to offer to run our retail operations as part of the deal.
The last couple of weeks have been busy in planning for the various kit launches to coincide with product deliveries into the country, information that we are now able to share.
The first team will be wearing the new 23/24 home kit at our final game against Crewe on Monday 8th May.
We are very grateful to our home kit sponsors, Pure Vans, 57 Tyres and Candour Talent for working with us to ensure that all the commercial arrangements were in place so that kit production could be expedited.
Launch content is being prepared and the kit will be unveiled on the 4th May when replica kits will be available to purchase.
The training and leisure wear launch is planned for the 15th of June, which will be followed by the away kit launch on the 17th of July. We are close to finalising sponsors for the training and away kit and should be in a position to announce those sponsors shortly.
Just to remind you, season ticket holders who have purchased their tickets before the end of the early-bird period will have their names embossed onto the third kit, that kit will be launched on the 18th of August.
Further details on launch activities will be announced nearer to the time.
As always, a big thank you to the fans and sponsors for your continued support.
