Castore to Make Hertha BSC Kits From 2025-26 Season
Nike's decision, reportedly made three months ago, will leave Hertha without the annual €2-3 million it has been receiving from Nike after extending the contract for 12 years in 2013.
Castore, the British sportswear brand, will take over as Hertha's kit supplier starting next season. While the initial deal is worth just €1 million per season, it could become more lucrative if Hertha manages to secure promotion back to the Bundesliga.
