Kaizer Chiefs' home and away kit explained


By Neo Poho

Ahead of the upcoming season Kaizer Chiefs have explained what the designs for their new 2023/24 home and away kits stand for.

The Glamour Boys unveiled the kits on Tuesday evening at The Galleria in Sandton, with several legends of the club invited too.

With Amakhosi ending their 22-year partnership with Nike and moving over to the Italian sportswear brand, Kappa which they first partnered with in 1989 until 1996 when the side won 12 trophies, Chiefs will hope that the new Kappa kits can spark a similar era to finally ending the club’s trophy drought.

“The home kit pays tribute to Kaizer Chiefs’ prestigious legacy, instilling both players and supporters, who are always behind the team, with a sense of pride, it is designed to evoke a sense of the club's rich heritage and tradition, the home jersey is predominantly gold symbolising Amakhosi’s commitment to success and excellence, with bold black inflections accentuating the sleek design, which will be complemented by either black or gold shorts on the field," the club said via a statement.

Meanwhile, the beguiling green and gold away kit is inspired by the natural beauty of South Africa.

“Inspired by the natural beauty of South Africa, the green represents the lush landscapes of the nation, while the gold trim symbolises victory and the accomplishment of the club over the past 53 years, this visually stunning away jersey is a testament to Kaizer Chiefs’ determination to dominate both on and off the field, forging ahead with confidence and style," the club added.

The Soweto giants will wear their new home kit for the first time on Sunday the 6th of August 2023 when they welcome Chippa United at Moses Mabhida in the DStv Premiership.
