Castore creates products that make athletes better, developing fabrics that are lighter, more flexible and more durable than anything else in the market. Sport at the very highest level often comes down to the smallest margins and next season’s jersey is designed to give Rangers players an edge.
The jersey maintains the famous royal blue colourway of so many great title winning teams throughout history and combines this with a unique new wave pattern, designed to symbolise the Blue Sea of Ibrox and represent a new era for the club.
The ultra-technical fabric further exemplifies the fusion of traditional and modern and the white and red trims represent the iconic Rangers colours with a mesh panelling design to enhance sweat wicking.
