West Brom release new Puma away kit for 2022/23 season - what fans are saying

West Bromwich Albion have released their new away kit for the 2022/23 season.

The Puma kit is inspired by club legend Cyrille Regis, who played for the Baggies in the 1970s. The custom-made strip, which is modelled by members of the Legacy Trust’s ‘Strike a Change’ programme, features the club’s traditional green-and-yellow stripes, and is emblazoned with inspirational Cyrille Regis quotes, as well as his autograph and the charity’s logo. The club will make a donation to The Cyrille Regis Legacy Trust for every away shirt sold and will support the charity throughout the season with fundraising events and activities. WBA italic lettering sits in place of the club crest, as it did on the iconic away shirt worn by Cyrille in the late 1970s.

How can I get the kit?

he new away kit is available to buy now in store and online at shop.wba.co.uk. The Megastore will remain open until 9pm tonight (Thursday, July 21) and will return to the new seven-days-a-week opening hours of 10am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm on Saturdays and 10am to 2pm on Sundays.

Another fan wrote: “The Regis is a great touch but the actual kit is awful.”
