Town Launch New Kits - Ipswich Town News

Town have revealed their kits for the 2018/19 season, which see a return to white sleeves for the home strip, as well as red detailing, and orange for the away.

Last week, the Blues agreed a new four-year deal with adidas, the club's kit manufacturers since 2014.

"Reverting to a retro-inspired round neck, Town’s new home shirt features white sleeves with blue and red contrast detailing,” the club explain on the official site.

"The red detailing continues across the adidas three-stripe branding to the shirt shoulders, shorts side panels and sock turnovers.

"The away kit is one of the most striking kits yet from adidas. The solar orange shirt, shorts and socks, feature contrast black detailing. It’s sure to be easy to spot from a distance, being the brightest away kit Town have worn in recent times.

"Continuing the orange theme, Town’s goalkeepers will also wear an orange kit when turning out at Portman Road.”

The kits will all bear the new EFL names and numbers, in partnership with mental health charity Mind, which will also be available on replica strips. Town’s shirts will also again feature local charity EACH and the new shorts sponsor Nicholas Estates.

The away kit will be available via Planet Blue and online from Friday 8th June with hte new home strip due at Portman Road at the end of June, with a launch date of Friday 29th June having been pencilled in. The home kit can be pre-ordered online from Tuesday, 6th June.

The two goalkeeper kits will be launched in July on a date yet to be confirmed.

The shirts will be priced at £45 for adults and £35 youth sizes, which won’t include the Magical Vegas logo due to EFL rules on gambling sponsors.

The kits will be on display on the Town stand at the Suffolk Show on Wednesday and Thursday.
