New Kit

[Risc]

There is obviously a deal in place also involving the Legends brand and Scott Hochstadt who has announced that he is now ‘part of the Swansea City family’.

I know he was the person responsible for bringing Modric and Snoop Dogg on board. Not sure if he was always part of the ownership or not. Certainly seems to be now.

Brett Cravatt's long time associate.

With both kits leaking online now, there's no point in holding off the official reveal now.
They've been well received so just release them.

Unless there is some truth in the rumour that there will be a Williams partnership and linked to the livery for Spa this weekend? Seems a longshot but may be something in it

I'd heard something about Williams from F1 but didn't know that's what they were maybe planning.
They could still release the burgundy one - that Snoop's son was seen wearing.

So we've got Gulf back as a sponsor then?

Reviva coffee is Gulf Oil. Same company.

Our kit sponsor also sponsors Williams Racing.

Our third kit is in the colours of our sponsor. Williams also use their colours for the same reason.

Williams don't use the gulf colours, they used it once as a one off in Monaco 2024.

Ah wow. Had no idea.

 

[MrSwerve]

As a big F1 fan for 30-odd years (more so than football), this is a (potential) crossover I wasn't expecting.

Not a kit person but if the image of the third kit is accurate then it’ll go down as a classic.

Williams don't use the gulf colours, they used it once as a one off in Monaco 2024.

Mclaren brought Gulf back to F1 & had a one off full livery at Monaco in 2021.
They then transferred sponsorship to Williams who ran a fan voted full blue & orange Gulf livery at 3 races in 2023.
Gulf are just a secondary, not title, sponsor of Williams now with just the logos on the car & drivers overalls.
We might see something different at Spa but I'd be surprised

I love F1, but not as much as chips.

Always had a soft spot for Ford’s as the old man worked there. The GT40 is my favourite car of all time and if I had loads of cash that would be the car I would buy and in this colour scheme.

I was lucky enough to see one of these cars in the Gulf Oil colours at the Jersey Marine plant back in the day - it was stunning.

If this shirt is actually one of this seasons kits, then someone deserves a real pat on the back. I think the home kit is brilliant, not to keen on the away kit but the 3rd kit looks really promising. Joma have taken some stick in the past, but I think their kits look good and this years could be the best we’ve had in a while.

The delay in release isn’t ideal, but at the same time the anticipation is driving speculation and publicity. The owners getting Snoop Dog or whatever his name is has “broaden the brand’s appeal” and we could see a surge in interest. Things are looking a bit brighter than they have for a while!
