Leeds United unveiled their away kit on Wednesday morning, and the widespread impression is that it’s one of the greatest in recent memory.
One exciting event in every pre-season is the club’s ability to reveal the shirts for the upcoming season, and there is one notable alteration this year.
The sponsor this time around is Red Bull, with a large front-and-center logo dominating the home strip, which divides opinion, but Adidas appear to have hit it out of the park with the away kit.
Leeds announce “Smiley” away uniform as a 1970s flashback.
Leeds’ new away kit for the 24/25 season has been unveiled, and it pays homage to the away jersey worn in 1973/74, around 50 years ago.
A bright yellow number with a sharp collar, blue and white sleeve details, and the classic ‘Smiley’ insignia featured, it’s a kit that has already likely sold extremely well, going down a treat among fans who have been clamouring for a yellow and blue kit for some time.
Red Bull’s sponsor has been changed to a tonal attempt that complements the jersey’s color scheme, and the kit is the first real yellow and blue outfit since Marcelo Bielsa’s third kit in 18/19.
Junior Firpo reacts to Leeds’ brand new uniform with delight.
Junior Firpo, a left-back from the first team to model the outfit at launch, is ecstatic with the new look.
Leeds must have their record-breaking kit here.
It’s not difficult to design an away kit that Leeds supporters will embrace and buy in droves.

With a reference to our tradition, you have a uniform that will undoubtedly smash records among fans.
