Derby County’s players will wear the club’s recently launched PUMA away kit in the pre-season friendly against Real Valladolid this weekend.
Paul Warne’s side will round off their 2024/25 pre-season games programme ahead of the upcoming Sky Bet Championship season at Pride Park Stadium against the Spanish top-flight outfit on Saturday 3rd August (3pm kick-off).
The new away kit was revealed last weekend and is now available to purchase from dcfcmegastore.com and from the DCFCMegastore at Pride Park Stadium.
The club was formed 140 years ago this year and is one of the founding members of the English Football League so, to celebrate the anniversary, the colours of the new away kit draw directly from the first-known kit of the 1884 team.
They were described in the press of the day as ‘brown on one side and green on the other, with a connecting trimming of gold’. The shirt uses Founders’ Green colour from the club’s identity palette as the base for this reinvented classic.
The kit was revealed at the end of July through specially printed ‘The Daily Ram’ newspapers located in various areas of Derby pertinent to the club’s long and proud history, including the site of the club’s first home at Derbyshire County Cricket Club, the Baseball Ground sculpture and The Old Bell, where the club was officially formed in May 1884.
The back of the away shirt features the wording ‘EST.1884’, and on the front of the kit will be the logo of FanHub, the club’s recently announced principal sponsor for the Men’s first-team.
The Men’s first-team squad’s playing kits will also display the
logo of back of shirt and shorts sponsor HSG UK, as well as sleeve
sponsor Tonic Weight Loss Surgery, during the season. Supporters wishing
to add either of these two logos to their shirts can do so in-person at
the DCFCMegastore ONLY.
The 2024/25 away kit is available to BUY NOW at dcfcmegastore.com and from the DCFCMegastore at Pride Park Stadium.
