Sponsors
The team's kit has traditionally been made up of combinations of the colours green and gold, the country's sporting colours. There was however, a period in the early 2000s, when the team wore a predominately white kit. The current home kit is mostly gold, while the away kit is mostly green.
When the team returned to international football in 1992, their kit was supplied by Italian clothing company, Kappa. The team wore Kappa kits up to and during the 1998 FIFA World Cup.
Since the 1998 World Cup, the kits for all South African national football teams have been supplied by German sports apparel company Adidas. The sponsorship deal is believed to be worth R14 million per year. Their contract with the South African Football Association runs until the end of 2010.
The team has two main sponsors, ABSA and South African Breweries, which sponsors the team under their Castle Lager brand. The team's techinal sponsor was Adidas, and its broadcast sponsor is the SABC. Other sponsors are AVIS, Coca-Cola, Internet Solutions, Mercedes-Benz South Africa, Netcare, South African Airways, SASOL, Southern Sun and Vodacom.
On 7 June 2011, SAFA announced Puma as its new technical sponsor and unveiled Bafana Bafana's new kit.
