HNK Hajduk Split and technical sponsor Macron presented their new third kit they will wear in the 23/24 season on Wednesday.  

The new kit is made from 100% recycled plastic, certified according to the “Global Recycled Standard.” 

Thirteen 0.5L recycled plastic bottles are used to make one jersey.

The front side of the shirt is made of a special eco-technological fabric that follows the concept of “body mapping,” and there are perforations (small holes) on the jersey where athletes sweat the most, providing a special visual effect while improving ventilation. 

The new kit comes with the inscription “Hajduk živi vječno” (Hajduk lives forever) sewn on the back of the collar. On the front side of the shirt, on the right, there is a silicone Macron Hero logo, while on the left side, at the heart, the silicone emblem of HNK Hajduk is located.

“The new green third kit represents a combination of technological innovation, sustainability, and the sporting spirit that are synonymous with Hajduk Split. This set stands out with its design, quality, and connection to the club’s values. Let the green colour of this jersey symbolise strength, growth, and hope for a better world, while the Hajduk emblem is proudly worn on the heart,” the club said today.
