Charlton Athletic revealed a new white and black third kit, provided by the club’s new kit supplier hummel.
The kit is a modified version of the club’s third kit option for the 2017/18 season and will be worn during the Addicks’ three pre-season games in Ireland.
The third kit will be used as an emergency strip for the season and will only be utilised if necessary. As such, it will not be made available for purchase.
The 2017/18 season is the first year of a new five-year partnership between Charlton and hummel and, for the first time in five years and every year of the agreement, the club will have both bespoke home and away kits.
The away kit will be worn for the first time in the club’s away friendly against Dover Athletic on Tuesday, July 18th.
Meanwhile, the new home kit will be worn for the first time in the opening league game of the season against Bristol Rovers on August 5th.
Both kits will be revealed later this month.
A one-off celebration kit will be worn for the December 9th home league game against Portsmouth, almost 25 years to the day after the Addicks beat the same opposition on December 5th, 1992. Details of this kit will be announced closer to the event.
