Revealed: Aberdeen’s new Northern Lights-inspired away kit

The Dons' new away strip is black with "cosmic swirls" - and references the night sky above the north of Scotland.

Aberdeen have unveiled their away kit for the 2023/24 season.

The new Adidas change strip is “inspired by the sights and colours often found in the sky that are synonymous with our special part of the world”, according to a Dons statement.

The club’s release added: “Our brand-new away kit features cosmic swirls on a black base, replicating the night sky when the ‘heavenly dancers’ come out to play.”

Aberdeen’s new away offering is available to pre-order from now until 5pm on Friday June 23, with pre-ordered kits expected to be dispatched from Tuesday June 27.

At present, kids’ mini kits and adult women’s tops are unavailable to pre-order, Aberdeen have stated.
