Swansea City unveil third kit with new sponsor ahead of 2022/23 season

Swansea City have released their third kit ahead of the new season.

The colour scheme of the eye-catching design is described by the club as 'anthracite grey', with the design containing black pinstripes woven into the fabric.

The kit is completed with black shorts and socks, with a white trim.

To help launch the new design, the club released a video featuring Swans legend Lee Trundle, who receives a call from Jamie Paterson at Fairwood, complaining of a possible 'kit clash' this weekend.

Trunds then goes in search of a solution in a nearby warehouse and, after a bit of fumbling eventually finds a box, which is then found to contain the new kit, much to the delight of Paterson and pal Michael Obafemi.

The shirt will feature two local brands, with Llanelli-based transport and warehousing firm Owens Group adorning the front of shirt for the first time. The company's logo, along with the player names and numbers, appears in gold to mark the firm's 50th anniversary.

Swansea Building Society, meanwhile, will be displayed on the back of the shirt, while DWJ Wealth Management is the back-of-shorts sponsor.

As with their home and away kits, Joma’s design is made from 100 per cent recycled polyester as part of the company's ongoing initiative to stop ocean pollution and eliminate plastic waste through the development of recycled products.

Supporters can purchase the new shirt from the club's online store, with prices at £48 for adults and £38 for youths.

The kit will be worn for the first time during Saturday's Championship opener with Rotherham United.

Kick-off at the New York Stadium is 3pm.
