Burnley Kit Features Retro Sponsor
The very kit that inspired Burnley's 2022-23 home shirt will now be further recreated.
Burnley's 1991-93 home kit featured the logo of Endsleigh, an insurance company. After being allowed to do so by Classic Football Shirts, this former sponsor will take over the front of the shirt for just one match.
Endsleigh have donated £10,000 to Burnley's charity organization, which runs a community kitchen.
On December 17, 250 of Burnley's retro sponsor kits will be available to buy at the Clarets Store, making it quite the limited edition item.
What do you think of this retro sponsor? Should other clubs also do this? Comment below.

Deportivo Cali 1965 First Title Commemorative Kits Released
Colombian club Deportivo Cali and their technical sponsor Hillside have launched a special-edition capsule celebrating the club's historic first league championship won in 1965. The release consists of two retro-inspired jerseys — one in green and another in white — that pay tribute to the monumental title won over six decades ago.
Both shirts embrace a classic mid-60s aesthetic, anchored by an open polo-style collar. The green shirt features a contrasting white collar and cuffs, complemented by a tonal sublimated pattern of stripes, pennants, and historic club insignia across the fabric. In turn, the white version offers a clean, elegant look highlighted by rich emerald green trim. On the collar ribbing, knit detailing spells out "19 CAMPEÓN 65" in tribute to the landmark campaign.
Each jersey is adorned with a vintage Deportivo Cali crest topped by a single embroidered golden star representing that maiden triumph. Additional commemorative touches include a retro script Hillside graphic at the lower back and a stitched authentic crest patch near the hem displaying "Cali - Un Amor para toda la Vida 1912". The limited-edition pieces are delivered in custom collector's packaging alongside a certificate of authenticity.
