The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have taken fans on a nostalgic ride by reintroducing their legendary black and gold jersey from the 2008 season. This retro revival has sparked excitement, with stocks selling out within minutes on KKR’s official website!
A Blend of Legacy & Modern Style
KKR unveiled the limited-edition kit in a stylish social media video with the caption:
“Black. Gold. Fearless. The jersey that started it all makes its return—a tribute to the fire, the fight, the spirit of the Knights. No frills, no changes—just pure, unshaken legacy. Korbo, Lorbo, Jeetbo. Retro roots. Modern glory.”
The updated jersey stays true to its original black-gold theme while incorporating modern fabrics and a sleek fit.
Will Players Wear It?
