Adidas Expected to Continue as Kit Supplier - Ipswich Town News

Managing director Ian Milne says he expects adidas to continue as the Blues’ kit supplier beyond the end of the season when the current contract finishes.

The club agreed a four-year deal with adidas, who had previously manufactured Town kits from 1977/78 - including the iconic strips worn as Sir Bobby Robson’s side won the FA Cup in that first season and then the UEFA Cup three years later - until 1989/90, back in 2014.

"We’re in discussions with adidas and I think all will be well on that,” Milne told BBC Radio Suffolk’s Life’s a Pitch. "Adidas is a great brand, Ipswich Town is a great brand.

"I’m sure we will continue. It’s a discussion at the moment, there are no issues there

"There’s been a change of management within adidas and I think it’s a case of certain things they need to get together. I don’t see any hitches there at all.”
