Following our in-depth article about the revival of the Robey brand, we’re taking a closer look at the 2024-25 shirts from the Dutch company.
Robey provides every club with 100% bespoke designs
Robey 2024-2025 Football Kits
Unlike the big sportswear brands that often rely on templates and streamlined graphics, Robey takes pride in delivering 100% bespoke designs to its partnered clubs. These teams may not be large enough to earn bespoke kits from bigger brands, but for Robey, they are.
In the 2024-2025 season, Robey was mainly inspired by the city and region of each team, creating designs that strongly connect the team with the region.
Several of Robey’s top designs sold out within just one day or week, but now, finally, restocks are coming
This unique for every club approach has paid off, with several of Robey’s top designs selling out within just one day or week of release. Robey shared with Footy Headlines that its kit sales have grown significantly compared to last year. Very nice for fans is that Robey has restocked a few of its most popular kits—including the NEC Nijmegen 24-25 third shirt.
