Town have unveiled their home and away kits for the 2025/26 season, which are on sale in Planet Blue and online now.

Umbro are the kit supplier for the fourth season and perhaps the last with the current deal up next summer.

The traditional blue home shirt, which is reminiscent of the strip worn between 1986 and 1989, is paired with a red away which has elements of blue on the sleeve and elsewhere.

Town’s press release explains: “The two shirts are connected by a ‘Blue Through and Through’ theme with the traditional blue home shirts joined by a red away shirt featuring blue detailing.

“The pattern running through both shirts – the body of the home and in the sleeves of the away – is a deconstruction of the modern version of the club crest, marking the 30th anniversary of its introduction in 1995.

“Both shirts feature a white v-neck collar with blue and red trim, which also appears on the cuffs.”

The home shirt is augmented by the traditional white shorts and blue socks with the shorts and socks of the away strip also red.

Both shirts bear new front-of-shirt sponsor Halo’s name as well as the Tingly Ted’s logo on the sleeve, minority shareholder and previous shirt sponsor Ed Sheeran’s hot sauce brand.

As part of the promotion, the club filmed young fans playing a game alongside first-teamers Sammie Szmodics, Sophie Peskett, Chieo Ogbene and Natalia Negri in Brantham.

For the first time during the current link-up with Umbro long-sleeve versions of both shirts are available for fans to buy.

In addition to a full range of men’s, women’s and youth sizes and children’s mini-kits are also on sale. Sizes range from S through to 6XL for adults and size 8 through to 18 in the women’s fit.

Supporters should note shirts will fit slightly bigger than in previous seasons – please check size guidelines online before ordering.

Planet Blue is open from 10am until 5pm today then from 10am until 4pm on Sunday 6th July before normal opening hours resume on Monday 7th July.

The new home and away kits can be ordered online here, with personalisation also available. Fans were queuing in Portman Road to get theirs from Planet Blue as it opened.

Shirt printing with names from either the men’s or women’s teams will not be available until after the announcement of squad numbers.

Flight_of_Shefki added 09:52 - Jul 5 Yeah, LOVE them! The home in particular. The collar and the sleeve ends, with the pattern on the home front look fantastic. And you know what, the simplicity of the 'Halo' sponsor is great. Away kit; not so sure on the sleeves - but will probably grow on me. Brilliant final effort under this contract from Umbro.

Blue_Heath added 10:00 - Jul 5 Great to see Szmodics hopefully he can get 20+ next season.

Rimsy added 10:02 - Jul 5 Like the home, round neck would have been better. Crest looks much better without the silly border from last year. All in all alot better than last seasons kit. Don't like the sleeves on the away shirt.

BlueFarmy added 10:06 - Jul 5 Home kit is lovely, traditional clean and timeless. The away kit however, the red is too bright, looks tacky imo

Generic added 10:12 - Jul 5 Most satisfactory. I wonder if the long-sleeved away version has the blue bits all the way down. That would be…busy.

silkcutblue added 10:16 - Jul 5 Love both ordered away in short sleeve (it looks like a keepers top in long)

flykickingbybgunn added 10:16 - Jul 5 Clearly I am completly odd. That red one is awful and the blue is disapointing. Especially after the great shirts we have had over the last few years.

wischip added 10:26 - Jul 5 Halo, Halo, what's all this then ?

warwickblue added 10:29 - Jul 5 Home shirt 100%. Red one- sleeves look like 1980s bus seats but maybe that's intentional retro vibe.

MickMillsTash added 10:29 - Jul 5 We’ve had worse, I’m sure I will buy one. Is the Ed Sheeran sauce on sale in the club shop? is he going to write a children’s book next?

boysof1981 added 10:31 - Jul 5 Blue kit is ok, the red kit looks awful. Be the first time in many years where I won’t be buying the away top.

Gforce added 10:46 - Jul 5 Home shirt very smart, better than last season in my opinion. The crest more subtle this time.

bringmeaKuqi added 10:53 - Jul 5 I agree the blue one looks okay and is better for not having a ring around the crest. It's a little plain... It's a bit 2019/20 but without the gambling and. The red one is really not my cup of tea. It looks like the 17/18 one - quite cheap looking. Hopefully the third kit is more interesting. Imo, away kits should be orange or white (though I appreciate this causes clashes) and I don't mind maroon or even pink (I thought that was a great introduction). Would love to see a pink kit as the third kit

Bergholtblue added 10:54 - Jul 5 No pictures of the goalies top?

The_Prof added 11:58 - Jul 5 From a practical point of view, the away strip is bright and therefore more eye-catching when you're actually playing. It's no surprise that the away games in the pink kit last season were some of our best performances. Teams have experimented with black and even grey away shirts, but they are harder for players to pick out when the game is underway, and tiny differences in things like that matter in terms of performance. I'm not a huge fan of Town wearing red (though Roy Keane apparently had a different opinion) but at least it's easier to pick out against the background than the maroon strips, nice though they were to look at.

blues1 added 12:28 - Jul 5 To those judging the away shirt by the pictures. I suggest u go down to the shop and see for real. Actually is really good. Haven't seen the long sleeve one, and do think the sleeves would be a bit too much. But the short sleeve ones are great. Think the fact its a bright red, will prevent us having to wear a 3rd kit for most away games too as wouldnt clalsh with blue.

gkroon89 added 12:31 - Jul 5 They should use the away shirt from last season as the 3rd kit. Was disappointing how little it got used.

blues1 added 13:10 - Jul 5 Widj123. What the hell are you on about? Same price as last season unless u want long sleeve version. Srill cheaper than most clubs kits. And end of the day, you dont have to buy it, do you?
