Monday, 25 June 2007

Leicester City today officially unveiled their new 07/09 home kit - which players and fans alike will be wearing on and off the pitch over the next two-seasons.

The kit sees a return to the 'all-blue' look which has brought promotion success for the club in previous years.

The new strip, seen here modelled by Fox Hunt 2007 winners Simone Swift and Paul Gogna, is designed and manufactured exclusively for LCFC by their new technical sponsor JAKO. The two parties have signed a four-year contract - which sees JAKO provide the Foxes with all their team, training and benchwear. JAKO have recently put the finishing touches to the club's new 2007-09 home shirt - . The club have released pictures of the prototype shirt in the run up to the launch

- but the finished version will be produced to the correct Leicester City shade of Royal Blue and will include a refined sponsor logo.

The club hope to have the new home kit, which has a two-year cycle, available for purchase in the City Megastore before the end of July.

City retail manager Ben Swift said: "We have visited JAKO's headquarters in Germany and we have been thoroughly impressed with their professionalism to date.

"We look forward to building a good, solid working relationship with them over the coming months."

Markus Maritz, international Export Manager from JAKO, added:

"As a European leader in team football apparel and equipment, is it essential for us to associate our brand with organizations like Leicester City Football Club . "

The passionate fan base combined with strong market recognition of this excellent run football club is an ideal match with JAKO's goal to create strong and positive market awareness for our brand in the UK."
