Aston Villa have unveiled their new away kit for the 2024/25, celebrating their 150th anniversary.
Drawing inspiration from the club’s history, Villa have kept in minimal this season with a plane white base which is accented by claret and blue stripes on the collar. The adidas stripes down the shoulders are also blue in what is the first strip released since Villa parted ways with previous provider Castore.
The club’s new crest features on the front, while on the back is an ‘AV 150’ anniversary marque to pay tribute to the club’s formation back in 1874.
Villa will debut the new kit – the first away strip in the new partnership with adidas – in Saturday’s Premier League opener when they travel to face West Ham United.
