New Augsburg Special Edition Jersey vs Wolfsburg 16 May 2020- FCA Halt Zusammen Shirt by Nike

This is the new Augsburg special jersey 2020, a limited edition fourth shirt that will be worn by the club for their clash against VfL Wolfsburg on 16 May, 2020. The game will be Augsburg’s first ever in the Bundesliga without spectators as the league resumes after Covid-19, and to commemorate this occasion, manufacturers Nike have come up with a special kit that was officially unveiled today (May 15, 2020)

The predominantly black jersey has the words “Augsburg halt Zusammen 2020” on the front instead of the logo of traditional shirt sponsors WWK Insurance.

When the Bundesliga was halted due to the coronavirus pandemic, Augsburg were 14th in the league, with 27 points from 25 games.

1907 pieces of this special black jersey (the club was founded in 1907) have been made available for sale, with 19.07% of the proceeds going to charity. Continue reading →

Leyton Orient Home, Away & Third Shirts 2020-2021 | New Balance Kits with Harry Kane supported charities as sponsor

These are the new Leyton Orient shirts 2020/21, LOFC’s new home, away and third jerseys for the upcoming League Two season. Made by New Balance, the new Orient kits were officially unveiled on May 14, 2020.

In a rather unique deal, the shirt sponsorship has been bought by Harry Kane and the England captain in turn has donated the space to three charities- Haven House on the away jersey, Mind on the third kit, and Frontline Heroes on the home top. Kane had a loan stint at Orient in his younger days and scored his first professional goal in English football while playing for the O’s. The deal has been approved by the FA, Premier League and EFL.

10% of sales of every shirt will be passed on to the respective charity on the front of the jersey.
