Town have announced that the new home, away and keeper kits for the 2013/14 season will be officially unveiled on Saturday 25th May, although some supporters will get an earlier chance to view them and buy a home strip.

Mannequins will display the new strips in Planet Blue from the day of the official release with the home kit on sale there and at Town’s stand at the Suffolk Show from Wednesday 29th May. The new away strip and keeper kit are on sale from Thursday 27th June.

TeamCard holders from 2012/13, which includes all season ticket holders, Silver Club members and Junior Blues, can get a preview of the kits at Planet Blue on Friday 24th May between 5pm and 8pm when they will also have the chance to be amongst the first to purchase a home kit.

Fans are required to bring their TeamCard in order to gain access on the evening when they will receive points rewards both for coming along and purchasing the kit.

All those attending will be entered into a draw giving them the chance to win a 2013/14 away shirt signed by the squad. Those buying a shirt on the evening will also be given a half price voucher for shirt printing.

Shirt sales will be limited to one per TeamCard holder with further purchases permitted when they go on general sale on the following Wednesday.

The new home kit is believed to feature a return to the traditional white sleeves as well as the red trim from this season, while the away strip is understood to be red and black.

Next season is the last year of the club’s contract with Mitre and we understand the Blues have already held talks with alternative potential future suppliers including Nike.

Hatman added 23:00 - May 17 I have 2 x unique 'Kit vote' shirts..., one that became the 2001/2002 Prem TXU home shirt, but as it was a kit vote sample, has 'Greene King'on it..., and also a blue with white and black trim shirt sample for the following season, with TXU as sponsor, that did not get voted in so very unique, it looks almost Everton-esque. Kit votes are great as it gives the fans power of choice, plus throws up a few unique samples such as these...!

jaspercon added 07:48 - May 18 superblues9 - Yes they did (although was 13 years ago! ) but you are not allowed alcohol branding on childrens shirts sizes anymore (which wasn't the case back then) and as kids always want the exact same shirt the players wear I doubt it makes any business sense to do in this day and age.

scooterblue added 21:07 - May 19 if we follow the season just gone and the home shirt has white sleeves and the away is red and black, does thie mean it is a red shirt with black sleeves or the other way round?.
