Luton Town's first new home shirt since 2023/24 is made by official partner Reflo.
The strip, designed by sustainable sportswear brand Reflo, is made from 100 per cent recycled polyester and engineered with the ability to be mechanically recycled.
Luton Town described the move as a meaningful solution to the 92 million tonnes of textiles that end up in landfill each year.
But while the material used to make the kit if new, the style is far from it.
The design, which features Luton's traditional orange on the body and black sleeves, is similar to the club's shirt from the 1980s.

Gary Sweet, Luton Town's executive officer, said: "We are delighted to launch our partnership with Reflo with this new, unique kit, while reminiscent of the one we watched our heroes of 80s wear, like Basher and Raddy.
"The Supporters' Trust have been involved in the design process from the very start, and the fans who have seen it already have been impressed."
Kit maker Reflo, who plant a tree for every product sold, is part-owned by Harry Kane.
Having joined the company in 2024, the brand pledged to plant 500 trees for every goal that Kane scored during the 2023/24 season.

That came after announcing last season they will change their home shirt every other year - instead of the usual annual churn most clubs opt for.

Colton and Martin lead Tyrone to Minor final victory over Kerry
Tyrone 1-16 Kerry 1-15 NO JOEL KERR? No problem for Tyrone who, it turned out, had a terrific replacement for him in the shape of All-Ireland MFC final matchwinner Diarmuid Martin. Rising star Kerr couldn't play in this Newbridge final due to being contracted with Premier League side West Ham United. Tyrone's answer was to draft in Martin who more than filled Kerr's boots, striking the winning point in the third minute of stoppage time and three crucial points overall. Tadgh O Slatara challenges for the ball with Diarmuid Martin and Padraig Donaghy. Tom Maher / INPHO Tom Maher / INPHO / INPHO There were huge contributions too from Peter Colton, who hit a vital goal from a penalty in the 52nd minute and finished with 1-2, Eoin Long and midfielder James Mulgrew while Padraig Goodman was terrific in the number three jersey. It was a sensational finale from Tyrone who trailed by four points with 11 minutes to go and who were still a point back at the start of stoppage time. Colton's point from a free ultimately levelled it up at 1-15 apiece before Martin pounced for the winning point in the 63rd minute. Kerry had a chance in the very last play but Ben Kelliher, who finished with 1-2, wasn't given a free in despite being brought to ground close to goal. It's Tyrone's first All-Ireland minor title since 2010 and with back-to-back U-20 titles already tucked away by the Red Hands, and the seniors through to next weekend's semi-final, a glorious treble could very well be on the cards. The Kerr situation added an extra layer of intrigue beforehand with conflicting reports around his availability. He was eventually ruled out, robbing Tyrone of a vital scoring outlet as Kerr demonstrated with his semi-final goal against Roscommon. Martin, who came as the last sub in the semi-final, was Kerr's direct replacement and the Fintona talent was at the pitch of the game immediately, scoring a 16th minute point and enjoying a terrific head-to-head with Tadhg O Slatara. Tyrone full-forward Eoin Long was tracked by Ronan Sheridan while at the other end, Kerry's in-form scorepoacher Kelliher had Ciaran McCrystal for company. Kerry hit the interval with a narrow 1-7 to 0-8 lead and, considering they were playing into the stiff wind, must have been content with that. Alex Tuohy, wearing number 12, covered huge ground for Kerry and chipped a point. It was pretty much the same story for wing-back Danny Murphy who punished Tyrone with his probing runs. Advertisement Tyrone briefly led by three points late in the first-half after a Mulgrew two-pointer was followed by a Long single. But Kerry scores from captain Gearoid White and Murphy were followed by the Kelliher goal just before the break. Murphy was involved again, playing the pop pass that Kelliher took at speed coming in from the right before rounding the goalkeeper and striking home. Tyrone restarted the brighter, initially at least, and levelled the game up for the sixth and seventh times before Kerry again pulled clear. Ben Kelliher is challenged by Elliott Kerr and Ciarán McCrystal. Tom Maher / INPHO Tom Maher / INPHO / INPHO Two-pointers from White and Kelliher left Kerry 1-13 to 0-12 ahead but a simmering Tyrone suddenly came bubbling to the boil. In the last 11 minutes they outscored Kerry by 1-4 to 0-2, the goal coming from a Colton penalty after sub Matthew F Daly was fouled by Curtin. Long also struck the post during the Tyrone blitz and fired a separate opportunity just over as Gerard Donnelly's side turned the screw impressively. Tyrone scorers: Peter Colton 1-2 (1-0 pen, 0-1f), Eoin Long 0-5 (0-3f), James Mulgrew 0-3 (tp), Diarmuid Martin 0-3, Darren McAnespie 0-1 (0-1f), Aodhan Quinn 0-1, Matthew F Daly 0-1. Kerry scorers: Ben Kelliher 1-2, Gearoid White 0-4 (1tp, 0-1f), Kevin Griffin 0-3 (1 tp, 1 45), Tadhg O'Connell 0-2, Danny Murphy 0-2, John Curtin 0-1, Alex Tuohy 0-1. TYRONE 1.

Liverpool pre-season new start date as tributes planned for Diogo Jota
Liverpool's squad is due to return to the AXA Training Centre for the commencement of pre-season on Tuesday (July 8), following the tragic death of Diogo Jota. Most of Arne Slot's first-team players attended the funeral of Jota and his brother, Andre Silva, in Gondomar on Saturday (July 5). The brothers lost their lives in a car crash in the early hours of Thursday morning when their vehicle swerved off the road due to a tyre blowout. They were travelling across Spain to catch a ferry back to Merseyside for the start of Liverpool's pre-season. Following Jota's death, Liverpool decided to delay the beginning of their pre-season training schedule. The initial group of Reds players had been scheduled to report to the AXA Training Centre on Friday (July 4), with a larger group expected to return on Monday (July 7). Instead, Slot's team was given additional time off to come to terms with the heartbreaking news of their colleague's death, with most players travelling to Portugal for his funeral, reports the Liverpool Echo. However, the squad will now reconvene at the AXA Training Centre to kick off their pre-season preparations on Tuesday (July 8). Liverpool's first summer friendly is currently due to take place next Sunday (July 13) against Preston North End at Deepdale. A decision on whether this match will proceed has not yet been made. A decision will only be made once the team have returned for pre-season training and after all players and staff have been consulted, as they mourn a close friend and colleague. Preston are currently preparing in anticipation of the match proceeding, which would be their first home friendly of the summer. The Championship side will stay in touch with the Premier League champions and will follow their lead when deciding if the friendly will take place. It is understood that Preston are planning tributes to honour Jota at Deepdale, should Liverpool indeed decide to go ahead with the fixture.
