Aldershot Town FC has unveiled its 2026/27 home shirts, paying tribute to the club's rich history and heritage. The classic design takes inspiration from the 1970s, featuring a striking red base complemented by a traditional blue collar and sleeve trim. The shirts display the current ATFC badge, representing pride, passion, and community spirit. As Aldershot prepares to celebrate its centenary year, this shirt stands as a tribute to everyone who has been part of the club's history dating back to 1926. The beauty of the shirt's design is in its simplicity, instantly evoking memories of great players, great teams, and great moments in the club's history. Paired with blue shorts and red socks, it proudly reflects the traditional colours that have represented football in Aldershot for generations. The short sleeve shirt will cost £55, and the special long sleeve shirt will cost £60, both of which can be purchased via LS4 Teamwear's website. Mark Butler, the club's representative, had this to say regarding the story behind the special concept of the 2026/27 home shirts: 'When it came to designing our Centenary Home Shirt, it was arguably the most challenging of the three kits. While the away and third shirts allowed us to start with a blank canvas, the home shirt carried a greater responsibility. It needed to represent 100 years of football in Aldershot. Our journey began by looking back at the club's earliest years and the shirt worn by the team in 1926. While some elements of that original design simply could not be recreated due to modern manufacturing methods and football regulations, one thing became clear: this shirt had to be rooted in tradition and instantly recognisable as Aldershot Town. As we explored different concepts, we kept returning to one of the most iconic eras in the club's history. The classic shirts of the 1970s, with their striking red body, blue collar, and blue sleeve cuffs, captured everything we were looking for. They were simple, traditional, and unmistakably Aldershot. Sometimes the best designs are the simplest, and this one immediately felt right. Creating a shirt that celebrated our history whilst accommodating the requirements of the modern game did bring some challenges. We were determined to preserve the shirt's traditional appearance as much as possible, and we were incredibly grateful that our valued sponsors Bridges Estate Agents, Natta, and EBB embraced this vision by agreeing to feature in a tonal red finish, helping maintain the classic aesthetic of the shirt. However, due to branding requirements, it was not possible to apply the sponsors' logos in the traditional way, but we were able to find a solution that worked for everyone involved.
