The campaign celebrated the diversity of Swindon fans, with photos of supporters from many backgrounds in iconic Swindon locations.
MP for Swindon South, Heidi Alexander, and MP for Swindon North, Will Stone, lent their support to the campaign by wearing the new shirt at Parliament.
Alexander said: 'People often ask me what best represents Swindon, and I always say that nothing captures its spirit more than the roar from the County Ground on a matchday. I was really proud to bring a part of that into the heart of Westminster this week.'
Stone added: 'It's great to be able to bring Swindon Town's new kit to Parliament for the My Town, My Shirt campaign. Football brings communities together from all walks of life, which is why I think it's fantastic that this campaign showcases our amazing fans across Swindon.'

Nick Coote, TrustSTFC board member, said: "When we talk about belonging, we're talking about creating space for every voice.
"This campaign isn't just about football kits – it's about who we are as a town and how football brings us together."
