Scottish Premier League club Hibernian have extended their kit partnership agreement with French manufacturers Le Coq Sportif for a further season. The previous deal was due to expire at the end of the current campaign but this new agreement means Hibernian will have received a decade of kits from Le Coq Sportif. Therefore, the French sportswear company will provide home and away kits to the SPL club throughout the 2009/10 season.

Fife Hyland, Commercial Director for Hibernian FC, said: “This is a fantastic agreement for the club on a lot of levels. The commercial benefits and returns are of paramount consideration but the players also require the highest possible standard in terms of technical performance of the kit.”
