There is no info on Leicester City's kit maker for the 2022-2023 season yet. Adidas might make Leicester City's kits in the 22-23 season as well.

Adidas to Lose Cardiff City, Fulham FC, And Sheffield United Kit Deals? Leicester Deal Running Out As Well
Adidas currently make the kits for four Premier League, three Championship, two League One teams, and none League Two teams.
In the Championship, Adidas supply Cardiff City, Fulham FC And Sheffield United.
Cardiff City
Cardiff City FC have been sponsored by Adidas since the 2015-16 season. The current season represents the final year of Cardiff City's current deal with Adidas. There certainly won't be an extension.
Fulham FC
The current deal between Fulham and Adidas officially runs until summer 2023 - this means that Adidas should still make Fulham's kits next season. However, there are chances that both parties will end their partnership one year early. We don't expect the deal to be extended.
Sheffield United
Sheffield United's deal with Adidas expires this summer. It appears highly unlikely that Adidas will continue to make the club's kits. In 2021, they agreed on a short term extension to their partnership with Adidas for one year,
In fact, Sheffield United last summer were reported to investigate the option of bringing production ‘in-house’.
Hummel have secured at least one of Adidas' deals
We have no concrete info about the new kit manufacturer of each team but Hummel should have secured at least one of Adidas' deals...
Adidas could also lose their kit deal with Leicester City after the current 21-22 season.
