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 →

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.
