With the new Nike deal, Coventry City are having new home and away kits this season.
The white away shirt, chosen by then manager Steven Pressley, which was popular as a leisure item but not as a kit as it clashed with a number of teams home kits, forcing City to play in yellow, or change their shorts or socks for a game to different colour, was supposed to be for the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 season.
However, the new kit deal means a new away kit and CEO Steve Waggott said: “The full intention was to wear the current away kit for two seasons just as we have the current home kit but, because of the change of supplier, it means that’s simply not possible.
“We are very excited by the new partnership that will see our kits manufactured by Nike and we believe supporters will be too.
“But it’s only right that we recognise that supporters buying the white kit thought it was going to last for two seasons rather than one.
"We are working through all the detail around prices for the new kit at the moment and that will help to shape the discount we offer. I’d advise fans to keep their receipt or have some form of proof of purchase for when we announce the offer.
“I am confident that the new deal with Just Sport Group will see an even better service on offer to our fans through our retail department."
