New Plymouth Argyle Kit 2020-21 | Puma PAFC Home Shirt 20-21 League One

This is the new Plymouth Argyle home kit 20/21, PAFC’s new home strip for the upcoming League One season. Made by Puma, the new Argyle home strip was officially launched on 28 May, 2020 by the Pilgrims.

Argyle were third in League Two when the campaign was ended early owing to the Coronavirus pandemic. It was however enough to ensure that they earned an immediate return back to League One, having dropped down from the third tier at the end of the 18/19 season.

The new PAFC 20/21 home jersey is predominantly dark green, with black Puma formstripe detailing across the shoulders. The kit will be paired with black shorts and predominantly white socks, as can be seen in the pics below. Ginsters remain principal shirt sponsors. Continue reading →

New Northampton Town Hummel Kit Deal- NTFC to leave Nike & Just Sport after 4 seasons

Northampton Town have announced a new kit deal with Hummel that will see the Danish firm become the club’s new kit partners beginning the 2020/2021 season. The announcement brings to an end NTFC’s four year association with Nike (Just Sport) that began in the summer of 2016.

The new home and away kits for the Cobblers have already been produced by Hummel and a release date will be officially announced once there is clarity as to when the 2019/20 season will finish. Northampton, who were 7th in League Two when the league was suspended, will participate in the play-offs, which means the Hummel deal could begin with them in League One (as was the case with Nike), should they win promotion. The Cobblers have also announced that they will continue to wear their existing Nike uniforms for the playoffs.

Among League Two teams in 2019/20, both Cambridge United and Oldham wore Hummel produced kits. The news comes on the heels of the Danish firm inking a 3 year contract with Everton last week. Continue reading →
