The Buccaneers have joined Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns in announcing their new home and away kit before the start of the new season in August.
Pirates have opted to go back to the club’s traditional colours after going green last season. The unveiling of the 2017/18 season jersey on social media is accompanied by photos of Abbubaker Mobara, Thabo Rakhale and Thamsanqa Gabuza wearing the new design.
The home kit is expected to be seen on the field in the Carling Black Label Cup at the end of July when they face Kaizer Chiefs at FNB Stadium.
