St Johnstone have launched their new kit for 2023/24 – and supporters have given it their seal of approval.
Saints will wear a blue shirt with white pinstripes, blue shorts and blue socks this coming season, with the shirt nodding to the Perth side’s famous pinstriped Umbro design of 1982-1986.
And after it was revealed at 5pm on Monday, fans took to social media to express their approval.
We are delighted to reveal the Club’s home kit for the upcoming 2023/24 campaign.
A new rendition of a classic design that pays homage to its 1982 predecessor.

While Twitter user Callum (@Calpol22i) added: “TAKE MY MONEY RIGHT NOW.”
Saints described the new kit as: “Primarily classic St. Johnstone Royal Blue, a colour associated with the club for most of its existence whilst, on the front, white pinstripes run down the jersey, a nod to designs of the past.
“The shorts are royal blue in colour, and the socks complete the ensemble, adopting a simple yet stylish approach with a solid blue design.”
They added: “Macron and Saints feel that the new kit is the perfect blend of vintage nostalgia and modern style.”

The new shirt also marks a change of main sponsor to GS Brown Construction, whose name previously adorned the front of Saints’ shirts between 2011 and 2015.
Back on Twitter, Colin Barnett said: “Tremendous effort. Best in a long time.”
