Watch: Wrexham unveil dragon inspired new home shirt

Wrexham AFC kit launch

The sleeping dragon has awoken.

That was the the theme of today's Wrexham kit launch.

A video filmed in the Welsh countryside shows the new shirt, which has been given a noticeable makeover from last season's kit.

The shirt, which is now available to pre-order, will be worn in Wrexham's first season back in League One since 2005, after historic back-to-back promotions.

The red, Macron home shirt – featuring front-of-shirt sponsor, United Airlines, and sleeve sponsor, HP – boasts embossed dragon scales and Y Ddraig Goch within the design.

The shirt also features a full white retro collar – offering a throwback to older Wrexham shirts, as Wrexham AFC approaches the 160th anniversary of the club’s foundation.

The Wrexham website stated: 'Macron’s Eco Fabric is their eco-sustainable thread, made with a 100% PET recycled polyester and certified by Global Recycle Standard. For every shirt produced, 13 0.5 litre bottles are recycled.

'Consistent across all of our 2024/25 shirts, it also includes a tribute to the 266 victims of the Gresford Colliery Disaster ahead of the 90th anniversary of the disaster on September 22, 1934 – with ‘266’ and a miner’s wheel on the nape.

'The shirt is available to pre-order via shop.wrexhamafc.co.uk, costing £60 for adults (5XL-M), £50 for juniors (S-3XS) and £40.00 for sizes 3-6m to 1-2y.
