Season 2023/24

This season was the first with new manufacturer Castore and it led to a shirt seemingly designed around the 1989/90 shirt by Scoreline. Only this time the subtle stripes on the shirt ran diagonally instead of the original vertical lines.

‍

The first Castore attempt at an away shirt saw the club return to a fully red shirt for the first time since 1988/89.The shirt was actually worn 2 times less than the third shirt despite the red shirt being an available option in all games where yellow was a clash.

The club returned to having an official third shirt for the first time since 2019/20. In the end it was worn more than the away shirt despite not seeing action until November. It was then worn a further 7 times. The two central stripes is not a design seen before at Mansfield but the Green sponsor unfortunately didn’t quite match the rest of the design.

The away GK was shown off at the same time as the blue home GK shirt but stock seemingly barely arrived at the club. The shirt wasn’t worn until a New Years day game away at Stockport. It was only worn a further 2 times away at Wimbledon and Barrow. 

The third GK shirt was worn significantly more than the third kit with it becoming a regular option at home with the One Call Insurance sponsor on. 

The official third version with the ICS sponsor was actually only used once away at Newport.

‍

FA Cup patches returned this season but this time the club had the sleeve sponsor on the left arm, previous seasons had seen one arm blank when FA Cup patches were worn.

The Stags lost at home to Wrexham in the first round.

For the third consecutive season the club had a dedicated charity fixture where alternate socks were worn in support of a Downs Syndrome charity.

The game chosen was a televised home game against Colchester.
