New Balance maintained the predominance of blue in Cardiff City’s 2023/24 home shirt. For the said season, the said traditional colour appeared to be richer and deeper in tone, with complementary white accent coming from the raglan sleeve seam trims and Henley collar providing a supporting detail. A refracted tonal vertical striping, confined to just the front body, gave the outfit a visual design to look after. Signing off the shirt was a small Bluebird logo at the back right below the collar.
