SWINDON Town have shared a sneak-peek of the club's new third kit for the remainder of the 2022-23 season.
After releasing a red home shirt with black features and a plain-white away shirt for the current campaign back in June, it appears as though Scott Lindsey's side will occasionally be donning a green changed strip from now on.
In a post on Town's social media channels, the club said: "Something special is landing tomorrow..." with a close-up shot of the crest surrounded by a predominantly green zigzag pattern.

Later on Monday, a second post regarding the kit was published by Town.
The subsequent social media post contained the caption: "cherish the present, while embracing our future" along with a photo of the bottom of the third shirt.
A gold kangaroo is clearly visible - presumably as a nod to Town's Australian owner, Clem Morfuni - along with further evidence of the green and white zig-zag pattern.

With Sutton United arriving at the County Ground on Tuesday night - a side which often wears yellow - Town are expected to wear the new third kit when they travel to Doncaster Rovers on Saturday, September 17.
Rovers' red and white home kit would have presented some logistical issues for Swindon, but that will no longer be the case after the introduction of the predominantly green strip.
The early reaction on Twitter was very positive from fans, with many excited to see the full shirt and others insisting they would be buying it at the earliest opportunity.
Town say the shirt - which is expected to be available in a limited capacity - will be on sale from Tuesday, September 13, but only in the club shop.
