Only in a friendly match against Real Madrid, the Hércules wore the sponsor Cívica. On 29 July 2010, the new shirts were officially presented. The first kit, maintains its traditional colors of blue and white vertical stripes with historic characterized by its thickness. The black color of his pants is the same as in its 88-year history. The socks are blue with some white details. New for this season, is the second kit, which for the first time in his life, will have horizontal stripes on his shirt.
