2 Tone is back!
Coventry City’s incredibly popular 2019/20 Third Kit is now back on sale as part of the Sky Blues’ Retro Range.
The iconic kit was created to commemorate the 40th anniversary of 2Tone and launched back in 2019, prompting huge demand from Sky Blues fans and others around the world.
The 2 Tone shirt is back available now at www.ccfcstore.com and in the CCFC Superstore at the Coventry Building Society Arena plus the Store at West Orchards Shopping Centre.
The 2 Tone music movement originated in Coventry, fusing traditional ska and reggae with musical elements of punk rock and new wave music – and was made famous by bands including Coventry’s The Specials and The Selecter, plus Madness, The Beat, Bad Manners and others.
The 2 Tone kit commemorated the 40th anniversary of 2 Tone and the impact the music and movement had on society. At a time when racial tensions existed in Britain, many 2 Tone bands featured a mix of black, white, and multiracial people.
The distinctive checkerboard design closely associated with the 2 Tone era features across the front of the shirt – with top half of the shirt white, and the bottom half black.
On the back of the shirt is the ‘Nutty Dancer’ from the 2 Tone era, which was designed by John Sims - the man behind much of the 2 Tone artwork - while inside the neck is the Kick It Out logo, plus the words '40 Years of 2 Tone'.
The shirt is available in Adult and Junior sizes.
Demand is again expected to be hight, so make sure you visit www.ccfcstore.com, the CCFC Superstore at the Coventry Building Society Arena or the Store at West Orchards now!
