Wrexham AFC’s New Home Kit Announcement
Wrexham AFC is set to unveil a stylish new home kit as they prepare for their upcoming 2025-26 Championship season. This announcement follows a remarkable journey through the tiers of English football, which has seen the club ascend from the fifth tier of non-league football to the Championship in a mere three years, fueled by three consecutive promotions. The club’s resurgence has caught global attention, particularly after Hollywood icons Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney assumed ownership in 2021.
Design Inspiration and Features
The new kit draws inspiration from a classic design worn during the 1981-82 season, which marked Wrexham’s last appearance in England’s second tier before they faced relegation. The modernized version features a sophisticated cut and a reimagined template, but it retains iconic elements from the original jersey such as a wide fold-over collar and a pinstripe pattern accented with stripes.
Additionally, this new shirt boasts motivational slogans tucked inside, including “Wrexham Is The Name” etched into the collar and a quote from the club’s song “Fearless in Devotion” reading “History Only Tells A Story” found along the lower hem. The centerpiece of the homage is the club crest, reminiscent of jerseys worn by former players like Joey Jones and Gareth Davies, who fought valiantly during their tenure in the second division.
Looking Ahead
As Wrexham prepares for the challenges that lie ahead in the Championship, expectations are high for Reynolds and McElhenney, who are not only learning the ropes of running one of the oldest professional football clubs in the world but also aiming for significant success in the coming season. Fans can follow their journey through the critically acclaimed documentary series “Welcome To Wrexham” on Disney+.
