stokeriño Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 The release video for the above kit is the usual kind of twaddle (that is going to severely disappoint anyone who visits the real London) - but I give it a pass entirely for the appearance of a wild Gunnersaurus at 01:10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stokeriño Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 At this very moment I am wearing our 50th Anniversary FA Cup Shirt and frankly it would have to start burning my skin like acid* for me to choose any other version of our kit over it. * or alternatively, be in the wash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCO Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 At least the players will wear the logo too. Despite sponsors being banned for international teams, our wonderful FA only sell our jerseys with a massive 3 plastered on it for some reason. The same with Eircom and Opel before it. You haven't been able to buy a proper Ireland jersey since the 80s. I had to buy a player issue one on a resale site to get a normal jersey.

Naitch Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 I also don't mind the sponsor but don't really like the black detailing. White, white and red, or even yellow/gold would fell more fitting. It very much looks like a training kit. MERGE: Or is it navy? I'd still prefer it to be white. I have also seen fan-made concept kits using "Three." and "SAMSUNG", both of which look better than the real version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roster Depth Sicko No. 2 Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 That's a nice Everton kit. And that Chelsea shirt is lovely bar the humongous 3 logo plastered on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCO Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 O'Neills are making Patrick Thistle's kit this year. Like always it's a weird and unique design, much better than another template! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colly Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 I love Hummel kits and that's a great one. Hate this trend of really high up sponsors though, I don't get it. Surely it's better to be massively stretched over a fat football fans gut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCO Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 It's been a trend. I loved this away kit from 02 but thought it was strange NTL went for small and high rather than big and colourful for the home. I remember it mainly because we beat Juve at SJP wearing it, while they strangely wore their black and white stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 Yep, really like that Everton kit. Glad the betting company are gone off the shirt too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 I love Hummel....even though the trainers and hi-tops I had off them the end of last year lasted for about 3 months each. 😕 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colly Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 I want them to bring Quicksilver back to the MCU just for that Hummel tracksuit he had. Anyway, this is lovely. I do wish Barca shirts were still sponsor free though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a nice kit, just like the simplicity of it more than anything. Plus I like the little arms coming of the A in the sponsor.

stokeriño Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Chelsea doing their utmost to make their new home kit more appealing by now releasing their new away kit that, from a distance, looks like a Man City shirt covered in lint. We now, of course, await official confirmation of the 3rd kit Crystal-Palace-in-disguise coup de grace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCO Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I just noticed the sleeve sponsor is massive as well. I remember Chelsea had a similar one that was much lighter, closer to white even, back in the early Abramovich era. That was a pretty nice one I think!

It is a bit odd looking back through the history of Newcastle away kits and seeing how many black and/or white ones there are. You'd think sticking with any of the kits from before 1999, except maybe the mid-80s grey ones, would make the most sense. 23 hours ago, Colly said: I want them to bring Quicksilver back to the MCU just for that Hummel tracksuit he had. Anyway, this is lovely. I do wish Barca shirts were still sponsor free though. That is a beautiful shirt. So simple and yet aethetical pleasing, not even the sponsorship ruins it. It presume it must be a common thing for most teams with betting companies as sponsors, but Norwich and Ipswich have both used different sponsors for the kids shirts in the last few years, which have consistently looked a lot better than their main ones. Especially so in Ipswich's relegation season, when their Magical Vegas sponsorship was in full colour rather than white to match their colour scheme.

We had an all black with gold a few years ago which looked great but was essentially useless as an away kit because the socks and shorts were the same as the home. Think that was a Puma theme for 3rd kits though as Leicester's one was identical. I still desperately want a retread of the 09/10 Championship double banana now. That was a proper away kit, bright and with over the top colours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity is a good way off yet. Also I'm pretty sure "filtered through a modern street lens and colour palette" is designer speak for "and we just did whatever we felt like".
