New Kits Every Year - Ipswich Town News

Town have announced that they will change both their home and away kit every season from this summer. The Blues say they were the only club in the top two divisions to change both their strips biennially prior to making the change.

Town's retail manager Lee Hyde told the club site: "It seems that most clubs have been working with single-year rotation on their shirts for several years now.

"We are one of the last remaining clubs not following this strategy but we feel that we now have to fall in line with the rest of football in this country.

"To keep the costs of the shirts competitive, we have to meet the minimum order requirements which the one-year rotation will also allow us to do."

Hyde says Town's two new kits will be available for pre-order from May: "We have been working closely with Mitre, our kit manufacturers, to produce a modern, striking look for next season and we're confident the new look will go down well with the supporters."
