It’s that time of the year again, when speculation and excitement starts to increase among fans about the release of new kits.
Owing to the coronavirus pandemic which saw football suspended for three months, kit releases and fresh sponsorship deals have been put on ice, while clubs agree extensions with existing partners.
Now the season has finished, albeit in dramatic circumstances for Nottingham Forest following their disastrous defeat to Stoke on Wednesday night, wheels will have started turning as to what happens next.
We know that Macron will continue to provide the club’s kit and technical wear for the new season, with a fresh training range released earlier this summer, but who will provide the club’s main sponsorship remains a closely guarded secret.
Football Index signed a one-year deal last summer in what the club described as the biggest shirt sponsorship deal in its history, and it remains to be seen if that deal will be extended or if the club will seek a new partner.
Already, designs of new kits are popping up and these, created by Concept Kits, have got Forest supporters talking.
The home shirt, while obviously predominantly red, it features black and white piping along the front of the shirt, and on the sleeve, while the V-neck finish gives a smart look to it.
When it comes to the away shirt, it’s most certainly going to stand out with its bright yellow colour and blue strip down the middle of the shirt, while the third kit is predominantly navy blue with section of gold around the neck and arms.
