Charlton Athletic’s brand new, bespoke home kit for the 2017/18 season, designed with the help of supporters, has been revealed.
The red home jersey, the first created by the club’s new kit manufacturer hummel, features distinctive white chevrons on the sleeves, and a sports fit, vented neckline and includes a number of details which pay tribute to the Addicks’ 25-year anniversary since returning to The Valley.
As well as every player who represented the club during the historic 1992/93 season having their names printed within the neck buggy on the inside of the shirt, Charlton’s famous badge is supported by a special scroll which reads ‘Back at The Valley’, identical to that which was seen on the front of the shirt when the club returned to SE7 against Portsmouth on December 5th, 1992.
