Saints will resume having their kit made by adidas from the start of next season.

adidas will be responsible for producing Saints’ team kit, replica kit, training wear, leisurewear and equipment.

Saints started their arrangement with adidas in 2013 but they were not involved in this season's strip.

Full details of the new adidas home and away kits will be released this summer.

Saints Chief Executive Officer Gareth Rogers said: “We are very grateful to adidas for the support and understanding they have offered over the past twelve months whilst we took an enforced hiatus from our affiliation.

“adidas has a global reputation for quality and innovation, making them the perfect partner for the club and we are looking forward to activating our working relationship for the third and final year of our contract.”

adidas UK Brand Director, Barry Moore added: “adidas is pleased to announce the continuation of our deal with Southampton Football Club for the 2015/16 season. The deal will include the supply of match wear, training wear and a full fan wear range for next season.

“We are excited about working closely with the club across the season by bringing together the latest adidas kit innovations with one of the best teams in the league."
