- Player Involvement: Wolves players, including the captain, were actively involved in the design process, providing feedback on the look, feel and functionality of the new kits.
Confirming the leaks, Wolverhampton Wanderers has partnered with new sports brand Sudo (officially "SUDU", founded by Wolves owner Fosun Group) as its new technical kit supplier starting from the 2024-25 season.
Wolves Announce Long-Term Kit Partnership with New Brand Sudu, Owned by Club Owner Fosun Sports
Sudo was launched by Levy Merchandising with Fosun Sports Group's backing. The new sports brand will design and manufacture all Wolves kits, "promising bespoke designs that honor the club's heritage while enhancing performance".
Financial aspects could be very favorable or very unfavorable for Wolves
The exact length and the financial details of the Sudo Wolverhampton Wanderers deal have not been disclosed. However, for us, Fosun is practically an in-house brand - financial aspects could be very favorable or unfavorable for Wolves, depending on how much money Fosun will take away from Wolves sales.
Wolves players were actively involved in the kit design process, providing feedback on look, feel, and functionality. Wolves captain Maximilian Kilman praised the collaboration, highlighting the positive experience and the quality of the final product.
Our philosophy is that a pro jersey should not cost £125, Wolves' will be £80. A replica jersey should not cost £80, Wolves' will be £58.
According to the press release, Sudo's "model eliminates traditional brand licensing, reducing costs and enabling affordable pricing". Pro jerseys will be priced at £80, while replica jerseys will be £58, significantly lower than Premier League peers. Wolves explicitly mentions Liverpool's expensive kits.
The Wolves 24-25 training kit will be launched on Friday, 28th June. The Sudo 24-25 home, away, and third kits will be released throughout the summer.

No More Nike: Adidas Croatia 2026 Training Kits Revealed
Following their switch from Nike to Adidas, Croatia's new training kit set for 2026 have been unveiled in the latest training camp for youth teams' goalkeepers.
However from what we've seen, both of the new jerseys are simply from Adidas Tiro 26 League template range, using default black and grey color choices. These are very likely just temporary options for the mean time, until the actual designs with probably bespoke colorways are officially released.
