With Bafana Bafana seemingly on a winning streak at the African Cup of Nations (Afcon), South African soccer fans have begun dusting off their old retro kits.
Others have headed to their nearest sports retailer to get their hands on one of the latest season jerseys, which are undoubtedly in hot demand.
On Saturday, 3 February, SA will take on Cape Verde in the Afcon quarter-final. The game will be broadcast at 22:00 on SABC Sport and the SABC 1 channel.

THE 23/24 NATIONAL TEAM JERSEYS
Last year, Bafana and Banyana’s kit sponsors, LeCoq Sportif, unveiled three new looks for the 23/24 season.
They are a yellow home jersey, a green away jersey, and a retro white, black, and gold striped alternative kit. The white alternative kit was specially designed for Afcon, claims the brand.
