Fleet join with Admiral for classic kit launch

Ebbsfleet United are pleased to launch our 2025/26 kits alongside a new partnership which will see the iconic Admiral logo displayed on two bespoke designs that are rich in history for the coming season.

Our collared home shirt takes inspiration from the classic and popular Admiral Seventies ‘hourglass’ designs worn by the likes of the Welsh national side and Coventry City, with the vibrant retro red shirts offset by a darker red and white stripe running down either side from beneath the arms.

Indeed the collared shirt of our new home kit recalls when Admiral were one of the Fleet’s first kit manufacturers to sport their logo on our strip in the late Seventies, which we wore in winning the Southern League Cup and in the season before we moved up into the Alliance Premier (now National) League.

For an added slice of history, the Fleet’s new kits were launched today at the local and iconic Brands Hatch motor racing circuit with photographs of players and kits taken in the famous grandstand and on the track itself – and a full gallery of those will be available to view later this weekend.

Fleet CEO Damian Irvine said, “It’s been a brilliant opportunity for us to showcase the club and in particular our new Admiral shirts at such a historic venue as Brands Hatch and one that lies only a few miles from our own base. Our home shirts have a real retro feel about them while still feeling fresh and bold.

“At the same time, we are delighted to agree a new kit supply partnership with such a well-loved brand as Admiral who have produced so many iconic shirts down the years and we trust Fleet fans will welcome this season’s shirts as another iconic chapter in our own rich history too.”

The new shirts will be available in children’s sizes (from YS to YXL) and in adult sizes (Small to 5XL). You can pre-order your 2025/26 replica kit here along with brand-new Fleet supporter training wear which this season comes in red or white colours.

Supporters are advised that the kit will arrive in the shop during the week commencing June 30th – we will issue updates once that stock has arrived or been dispatched for delivery. Once again, our shirt naming and numbering service can be ordered alongside your new kit.
