Dundee United today revealed the new 2013/14 home, away and heritage kits. The Club have again teamed up with Just Sports Group (Ltd) in conjunction with Nike in what is the fifth kit launch in this successful partnership.
The striking home design, modelled by new signing Paul Paton, features the traditional tangerine body with a gradient fading into a full black front panel at the bottom end of the design. The shorts and socks are both black to complement the full gradient effect.
The away kit, modelled by Michael Gardyne, features a lovely stylish button down open neck design on the all white top with a black trim around the collar to match the sponsor's logo on the front. The shorts for the away kit are tangerine and socks white.
The Club have also introduced a heritage cup kit for this season, 50 years after it was worn in the 1963/64 season. The striking kit displays a deep red body colour with white sleeves and features the United crest from 1963 with white shorts and socks to complete the heritage kit. The uniform will be worn by the team in cup competition only this coming season and no player names will feature to keep its authenticity to the heritage of the kit.
United's latest kit highlights the deal with main Club sponsors Calor Gas and again carries their black logo on the front although this year displayed in an eye catching font.
Also in Club colours, the back of the shirt sports the logo of sponsors GA Engineering who are in the second year of a sponsorship deal with the Club.
The shorts underscore a further new sponsorship agreement with Digital Goldfish who equally have adapted their logo to tie in with the overall look of the new kit. On the heritage kit the parent company Ninja Kiwi's red and black logo are displayed to sensational effect.
The socks on all three kits are sponsored by Tele Taxis who also have agreed to modify the colour of their logo to tie in with the overall strip designs.
The home shirts will be available from the Club Shop Dundee United Direct as of 28 June 2013 and the away kit and heritage kit will be on sale at a later date. More details will be available in due course.
