Cardiff City have unveiled their new home kit for the 2023/24 season.
It is the second year the club have had their kits made by New Balance, having shifted from adidas last year. The front sponsor on the shirt, which has been Malaysia Berjaya for three seasons, has reverted back to Visit Malaysia, the sponsor on the shirt during the promotion and Premier League campaigns.
It is the first kit Cardiff will play in under new manager Erol Bulut, who was unveiled as the new Bluebirds boss a fortnight ago.

The design sees the collar revert to a grandad-style neck, with thin white piping down the sleeve and a thicker white stripe down the side of the shirt. The torso of the shirt is adorned with dark and slightly lighter blue stripes. The shorts have a thick white stripe down the side, while the socks are a block blue colour.
The goalkeeper kit is a light grey, with different shades in a patchwork-type pattern.
"Cardiff City Football Club is delighted to reveal our 2023/24 Home shirt, produced by New Balance!" the club wrote in its statement
"Our 2023/24 Home shirt will be available to purchase online and in-store from 10am on Wednesday, 21st June. The Cardiff City SuperStore will be open from 10am-4pm on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week.
"Order online from 10am on Wednesday via www.cardiffcityfcstore.com."

Some supporters were hopeful of a big signing being unveiled in the new kit, but, alas, it was not to be. Mark McGuinness, Kion Etete, Joe Ralls, Ryan Allsop, Mahlon Romeo, Rubin Colwill, Callum O'Dowda, Perry Ng, Rhianne Oakley and Danielle Green were the chosen models for the unveiling. City fans will have to wait for fresh faces.
It is set to be a busy week for Cardiff. Bulut will unveil his backroom staff in the coming days, while the 2023/24 Championship fixtures are released at 9am on Thursday.
The players also report back for pre-season today (Monday), however it is understood not the whole squad will be there, as some are still on international break and others are owed holiday.
