Clarets go Italian

The last six years has seen Superleague/TFG as kit suppliers at Burnley but Errea, who were involved with Cheltenham during Steve Cotterill’s time there have now completed a deal that will see us join the likes of Middlesbrough, Brighton and Derby as well as Cheltenham in wearing kit from the Parma based company.

As well as providing the kit, Errea will be looking to provide a much wider range of leisurewear as well and speaking on their behalf Export Manager Fabrizio Taddei said, We are proud to be associated with an historical club such as Burnley FC, their distinctive brand and large support base gives us a unique opportunity to develop many exciting products for the club's fans.

"We would like to establish an ongoing partnership that is not just about kits and shirts, but a total leisurewear package for the club designed and created and developed together with the retail department of Burnley FC.

"We are very happy to work again with Steve Cotterill, we were together during his successful spell at Cheltenham Town FC and we hope we can be successful again with Burnley FC."

Burnley’s home kit as the picture shows will carry a blue strip across the front which will carry the Hunters logo whilst the away kit is again predominantly white, the favourite for most Burnley fans.

The socks are not shown but certainly the home socks will, as they have been for most of the last forty years, be white.
