Gateshead FC is delighted to announce a long-term extension of its successful partnership with HOPE + GLORY, who will continue as the club’s Official Technical Kit and Fanwear Partner.
The renewed agreement marks another significant milestone in the strong relationship between the two organisations and reinforces a shared commitment to delivering high-quality products, enhancing the supporter experience and supporting the continued growth of Gateshead Football Club both on and off the pitch.
Since joining forces, HOPE + GLORY has played a key role in supplying the club’s bespoke playing kits, training wear and fanwear collections, helping to strengthen the Gateshead FC brand while providing supporters with a range of premium apparel that reflects the identity and ambitions of the club.
The long-term extension will see HOPE + GLORY continue to work closely with Gateshead FC to design and deliver bespoke playing kits, develop innovative merchandise ranges and create exciting new opportunities for supporters to engage with the club.
Simon Johnson, Head of Football Operations at Gateshead FC, said:
“Hope and Glory have been the best kit supplier I’ve worked with during my time at the club. The personal touch that Ric and the team bring, alongside the family feel that runs throughout the business, makes this an outstanding partnership for Gateshead FC.
They understand exactly what we need as a football club and have consistently delivered for us. Over the last year in particular, they have been incredibly supportive, understanding our requirements and gone above and beyond to help the club with whenever is needed.
We’re also delighted that, as part of this extended agreement, Hope and Glory will once again feature as sleeve sponsor on our third kit, continuing their fantastic support of the club from last season.
We look forward to continuing this excellent partnership and working together to build on everything we’ve achieved so far.”
Ric Dennis, Founder and Owner of HOPE + GLORY, added:
“We’re delighted to extend our partnership with Gateshead FC. The club has a strong identity, an ambitious outlook, and a passionate fanbase that aligns perfectly with our values as a brand.
We’re proud of what we’ve achieved together so far and excited to continue developing bespoke playing kits, premium technical apparel and fanwear that supporters can wear with pride.”
The partnership extension provides stability and continuity as Gateshead FC continues its development both on and off the field, with supporters able to look forward to future kit launches, merchandise collections and exclusive products delivered in collaboration with HOPE + GLORY.
The agreement will also see HOPE + GLORY continue their support of the club as sleeve sponsor on Gateshead FC’s third kit, further strengthening the relationship between the two organisations.
Gateshead FC would also like to thank supporters for their patience regarding the launch of the club’s 2026/27 playing and training wear range. The club is currently finalising the remaining commercial aspects relating to next season’s kits and is looking forward to unveiling the new bespoke designs within the next week.
Everyone at Gateshead FC and HOPE + GLORY is excited to share the new range with supporters and appreciates their continued support and understanding throughout the process.
