Paying homage to the first Wellington Phoenix men’s side that qualified for the Finals Series back in 2010, the new kit features the club’s traditional yellow and black stripes and black shorts.
As has been the case for the past three seasons, the new men’s kit will feature the tohu
gifted to the Phoenix by local iwi Te Āti Awa.
The tohu is woven into the black stripes while Te Raukura (the plume of white feathers), which is an important symbol to the tribes who affiliate to Te Āti Awa and other Taranaki iwi, once again takes centre stage on the front of the shirt.

“I have fond memories of watching the Phoenix play in a similar kit to this when the likes of Paul Ifill were playing,” said Wellington Phoenix skipper Alex Rufer.
“And when I first joined the club we had the yellow and black stripes so it’s great to see them back.
“Dynasty has done a fantastic job producing this year’s strip and I can’t wait to pull it on and represent the Phoenix with pride.”
Now available to buy online, Wellington fans can also purchase the new jersey in selected Rebel Sport stores.
The new replica shirt will also be on sale at Sky Stadium ahead of the club’s clash with Wrexham AFC on Saturday, July 19.

In another change from last season’s kit, the Nix will also have a new front-of-shirt sponsor, with technology company Entelar Group returning as one of the club’s principal partners.
“This iconic jersey reflects both tradition and progress – values that resonate deeply with Entelar Group,” said Entelar Group CEO, Rajesh Singh
“Together with the Wellington Phoenix, we’re committed to supporting our communities across New Zealand including local schools and grassroots clubs.
“We’re also looking forward to continuing the Nix in Schools programme, helping young kids meet and play with their football heroes.”
The Entelar Group logo will also feature on the new Phoenix women’s Ninja A-League away strips which will be unveiled in September closer to the start of the new campaign.
