Aston Villa have unveiled our new home kit for the 2023/24 campaign, with Castore and BK8 confirmed as our manufacturer and main sponsor respectively.
As per the club’s official statement, we’ve agreed on a three-year deal with BK8 to become our Principal and Front of Shirt Partner, with the contract set to run until the end of the 2025/26 season.

That in turn will see BK8 on the front of all three of our shirts in that time, while details of charitable donations as part of the sales of the kit were outlined by the club’s statement too.
As seen in the images below, the new Villa home kit is now available, and we also got our first glimpse of the goalkeeper’s home kit too.
Meanwhile, Villa also confirmed our new Official Sleeve and Trading Partner in Trade Nation, and so our new look for the upcoming season is now complete with further unveilings expected for the away and third kits in due course.
Interestingly though, while the new home kit has our now badge on it as expected, Villa noted in another statement on its release that we will continue to use our existing badge around Villa Park and on digital channels as they collect further feedback as well as consider our upcoming 150th anniversary.
“The redesigned crest, which pays homage to our European Cup-winning heroes of 1982, appears on Villa’s playing and training kits this season,” the statement read. “The club will continue to use the existing shield design around Villa Park and on our digital channels, as well as in other areas.
“Aston Villa will monitor local, national and global reaction along with feedback to the use of both the crest and kit moniker as the 2023/24 campaign progresses.
“With our landmark 150th anniversary on the horizon next season, the club will further engage with supporters on the future identity of Aston Villa and how it should look for the next 150 years and beyond.”
Time will tell if there are any additional changes being considered and planned beyond this season to warrant that decision, but ultimately for now, Villa’s new home kit is now unveiled and it will hopefully spark the beginning of a busy few weeks and months ahead this summer as we prepare for the new campaign.
We’ll get our first look at the new kit in our first pre-season friendly against Walsall on July 15, and time will tell how many more new faces will be wearing it along with Youri Tielemans when that fixture comes round.
