The New New Kit Thread

"Does the PIF have a financial interest in this?" is like playing six degrees of Kevin Bacon at this point.

[Baddar]

Really like this one.

It's very "teamwear", not helped by the no sponsor and the daft new badge. Nice colour I guess.

[stokeriño]

I didn't realise that they'd used that badge before until I just looked it up. Reminds me of the 'Ken Bates era' CFC badge that Chelsea had, in that it reeks of "we thought that being simpler and more stylish would be a good thing, but on reflection actually no one wants that".

With that said, I think it's great.

Chef's. Kiss.

Honestly with no main sponsor or anything, I would absolutely buy one. But 100 euros? Fuck me.

Just remembered why it felt very Saudi to me...

Those kits are going to look so good with 28% possession.

Are they sponsored by that shop in the town centre that sells drug paraphernalia but definitely and I repeat definitely doesn't sell drugs?

[Colly]

You can't do anything with stripes.

and maybe that's a good thing.

Brighton continuing their one team crusade to ensure that all their kits clash with all Newcastle's

[Colly]

If they dig out a white third kit they'll have done the exact opposite of us last season and have to bring a training top with them.

Are Blackburn sponsored by a 90s ska-punk band?

I hope they don't Reel (a) Big Fish for a sponsor. Then they'd be a Sell Out.

"Here's a shirt that will never look this nice because we are determined to slap some horrible sponsor on it by the time we put it on sale in mid-August. But please, by all means, pre-order now."

(I don't like the glossy plastic badge either, tbh.)

[Colly]

That'd be nice without the weird badge, though as you say a sponsor may murder it further. What's going on with the white bits on the back?

[stokeriño]

No idea - can't find a clear shot of the back anywhere. The 97/98 shirt it's referencing doesn't have anything like that either.

[Naitch]

Yeah I don't like that one bit. The weird colouring on the badges doesn't work and I've never liked Nike's recent obsession with that stitching across the chest. This looks like a cheap/generic training kit that's been turned into a knockoff.
