I really love FaithWear, honestly, but ZC is on steroids at the moment. I know everyone on this forum has been commending them over and over - and right now, we have to do it again! I know its just kit but this is positive news.The rehabilitation of Zimbabwe Cricket has taken another major step following the signing of a lucrative kit sponsorship deal with the sports manufacturer Reebok.
Zimbabwe Cricket managing director, Ozias Bvute confirmed the deal, telling Sports Pro Media: "I can confirm that an agreement has been reached with Reebok but we will make a public announcement in the next few weeks. We are currently finalising the details."
The deal is expected to cover all national teams and franchises, and brings to an end a long-term tie-in with the local manufacturers, Faith Wear. The national squad, which is currently in South Africa ahead of a series of two Twenty20s and three ODIs, is likely to start using the new kit as soon as possible.
Reebok is a subsidiary of the German sports manufacturer Adidas, which has already secured kit deals with the Sri Lanka and South Africa cricket teams.

Re: Zimbabwe sign kit deal with Reebok
Yep we are standing in line for my FIRST zim shirt, I really liked the new faith wear kit, their Last I guess and they went out with a bang. That contract was quite significant for faith I guess. I think they had also become complacent as the quality had become very shoddy, down to stitching details. Thank you Faith welcome Reebok!

Re: Zimbabwe sign kit deal with Reebok
Looking forward to the new kit, esp the Test one - when we get there (soon). At the moment, SA and Sri Lanka's Reebok kit doesn't do it for me! LOL. Yes, I know its just cream/white but when you see England's and Australia's - there is a big difference - personally, I like the Australian kit. I guess time will tell...
