Kit Details

Manufacturer

Beaver continued as the club's kit manufacturer.

Main Sponsors

Mansfield Bitter continued as the club's main shirt sponsor.

Home Kit & Variations

The home kit remained the same from the previous seen, it was also worn at times with yellow socks.

Away Kit

I've classed this as the away kit for this season, as it was the season before, but it wasn't specifically named as such.

It was only worn once away at Cambridge this season with the Centenary kit used for more often but due to the Centenary kit being named as such this has to be unofficially the away kit.

On the occasion it was worn it saw different socks used to what was used the season before.

Centenary Kit

The Centenary kit was launched to mark 100 years since the first club resembling the modern day Mansfield Town was formed in 1897, the Mansfield Wesleyans. The club as we know it now, Mansfield Town, were officially formed later in 1910.

This kit was worn more than the white 'away kit' and was popular with the fans and is still considered one of our best kits. It was the first time the modern day Mansfield Town badge that we all recognised was used on a shirt. It also saw a different Beaver manufacturers logo compared to the other shirts.

Goalkeeper Kit

This goalkeeper kit remained the same from the previous season.

Goalkeeper Kit - Centenary

This grey GK kit had the same Beaver & club logo from the centenary kit and has been classed as such.

It wasn't however solely worn with the centenary brown and blue kit, it was also worn along side the home kit on occasions as well.

It featured a pattern of swirly black lines of varying thickness across the front however the pattern did not continue down the arms or on the back.
