With pre-season friendlies just days away in some cases most sides have released their playing kits for the 2023 season but the latest are League One’s Rochdale Hornets who have released an amazing set of kits for the upcoming campaign.
That 2023 campaign will sadly see Hornets compete in a 10-team division with the earlier announcement that West Wales Raiders won’t compete in the 2023 season, but the Hornets will be gunning for promotion in sleek new kits.
🤩 So then, here they are in all their glory!
We are delighted to unveil our new, Supro Sport home and away kits for 2023 🙌

Hornets blue club crest stands out in contrast with the colouring in what looks set to be a fan favourite in the upcoming season.
Fan response has already been incredibly positive with numerous responses insinuating that they’ll be purchasing it as well as their CEO passing comment.

As for the sides home kit it highlights the 151-year-old club’s traditional colours with a red bottom half below a solid white hoop displaying the sponsor and then their traditional blue across the chest and shoulders.
The white trim on the shirt and gradually fading hoops across the midriff give it a simplistic and classy feel.
