Swansea City have unveiled their new away strip for the 2004/2005 season as designed by the competition winner from the Evening Post (well, the colour is the same anyway!) The shirt, which will also carry in the material the names of up to 1000 fans (see here), was designed by Robert Hartley – a 13 year old Swans fan from the City.

This does not stop the club from producing a polo shirt which will include the white swan design and will be available for sale." The result (pictured below) is basically the same as this season’s away kit but in a different colour!
Knowing our track record of producing these shirts they will be on sale in time for Christmas (!!!!) and will be priced at £30 for children shirts, £36 for Youth sizes and £40 for adults. |
