Leeds United have confirmed the club’s 2022/23 home kit will go on general sale at 9am on Wednesday 24 August. The Whites unveiled the shirt all the way back in July during the club’s pre-season tour of Australia but have suffered with some major supply issues over the summer.
A severe Covid outbreak in Singapore, where the kits are manufactured, were the cause of the initial hold up. A boat coming in from south-east Asia holding several shipping containers of the club’s home strip then plummeted into the sea which sparked an even further delay.
But fans will now finally be able to purchase the new home strip starting from tomorrow. A club statement read: “Leeds United are pleased to announce that our adidas home kit for the 2022/23 campaign will be available to purchase from Wednesday 24th August online at shop.leedsunited.com and in all official Leeds United retail stores.

“Season Ticket Holders and Members will once again have an exclusive priority window to purchase online between 8am and 9am on Wednesday morning, with the kit then available on general sale from 9am both in-store and online.
“Please note that only adult and junior kits will be available to purchase from Wednesday 24th August, whilst women's kits, mini kits and baby kits will be available to pre-order due to ongoing issues with supply.
“The home shirt, which was unveiled during the pre-season tour to Australia, is a celebration of the club and its loyal supporters, in our classic colours of white, yellow, and blue.
“The kit has once again been produced in partnership with the club’s official technical kit partner adidas, using a high-performance recycled material that is soft and textured, with the AEROREADY fabric featuring the iconic LUFC script throughout to recognise the 50th anniversary of the 1972 FA Cup winning side.
“The adult home replica shirt is sponsored by SBOTOP for a third successive year, along with our new sleeve partner for the season Wish. This is the second of our 22/23 kits to be released with our much sought after Away shirt already available to purchase online and in-store.
“Supporters will be able to purchase or preorder the kit online here. Alternatively, you can visit any of our official Leeds United stores from 9am located at Elland Road, Trinity Leeds, the White Rose Shopping Centre and Merrion Centre.”
