“We are excited to team up with Kappa once again, a brand with which Kaizer Chiefs set new records and established itself as trendsetters in African football in the early 1990s,” said Marketing and Commercial Director, Jessica Motaung.

“Kappa, like Kaizer Chiefs, is a unique brand of style and class and one of the key players in the global football kit space. Kappa have had great partnerships with some of the world’s leading football clubs, as well as a number of local teams over the years. This deal is not only an acknowledgment of our past but also an exciting leap into the future for the club.

“The relationship between Amakhosi and Kappa dates back to 1989, when Chiefs first wore the chic Italian brand. The partnership – which lasted until 1996 – saw the two brands build a strong and proud heritage. Over this time, Chiefs won many trophies and became leaders in the football fashion sphere. This marriage also generated enormous growth for the Kappa brand in South Africa and neighbouring countries.”
