Kits are debuted on the site on the 28th of each month (reveal night), with a sneak peak being shown on the 15th of the month. (For example the December kits will be sneaked on November 15th, with reveal night being November 28th). Club members are automatically sent the monthly kit, new members need to sign up on reveal night to ensure a subscription.
