WE are delighted to announce a multi-year agreement for Kappa to become the club’s new technical partner.
The partnership includes the supply of technical clothing for all teams and staff – ranging from the first team of both men’s and women’s sections at Inver Park, right throughout our Academy at all levels.
We are delighted to announce this will also see Kappa providing the creation of customise-designed shirts for all match kits in the 2026/27 season and beyond.
Founded in Turin in 1978, Kappa is an Italian sportswear brand recognised worldwide, currently supplying the likes of OGC Nice, Fiorentina, Genoa and Deportivo de la Coruña.
Larne’s Football Consultant Alex Black is delighted to welcome Kappa to the club, saying:
“We are thrilled to enter into this partnership with Kappa.
“This agreement signals an exciting new era in the history of the club and one which is fitting of Champions.
“Kappa are a globally recognised brand and a partner who meets our ambition to do everything we can to the highest possible standard.
“They have a reputation of being both an experienced teamwear partner, as well as providing innovative designs and products.
“We are excited to unveil the designs locked in for our three playing kids as well as training and teamwear we are sure our supporters will love.”
The brand-new kits will make their first appearance in next month’s UEFA Champions League first qualifying round.
They will also be proudly worn across the country as the club’s domestic campaign gets underway in August.
Peter Masters, Managing Director, Q Brands Plus, is proud to be working with Larne, saying:
“We are delighted to formally launch our partnership with Larne Football Club. While this announcement marks the public beginning of the relationship, our collaboration actually began in late 2025, when discussions first started around supporting Larne’s long-term ambitions and future growth.”
“Larne will proudly fly the flag for Kappa within the NIFL Premiership as the league’s only Kappa-supplied club. That is a position we are extremely proud of and one that reflects the club’s ambition, professionalism and growing reputation both on and off the pitch.”
“For Larne supporters, this partnership is about much more than a new kit. Fans can look forward to premium-quality playing and training wear, improved merchandise availability and exciting new retail opportunities throughout the season. Every product has been developed with the club and its supporters firmly in mind.”
“Our ambition is to establish Larne as a flagship club within our wider football portfolio across the UK and Ireland. We believe this is the start of a long-term partnership built on shared values, innovation and ambition, and we are excited to work alongside the club as it continues its impressive journey both domestically and in European competition.”
Supporters can look forward to keeping their eyes peeled across our social media platforms, as we build-up the launch of our exciting new kits, training and leisurewear in the weeks to come.
