NYO Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 So we choose to celebrate our illustrious Club's 150th anniversary by replicating, what was at the time , one of the most universally disliked kits of our proud heritage. Abominations, both of them! Do what you like with the Away Shirt, have an epileptic fit using Adobe InDesign if you must, but keep the Home Shirt sacred. Comes to summat when a Huddersfield fan is laughing at us. Each to their own of course, and I'm sure our fans will buy it en-masse but they are shockers!

Anyone liking it is showing blind loyalty to our club My two favourite away kits were the two black and yellow ones in the early 90’s. This is reminiscent of both. I really like it.

Shezza Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) At least it wasn't presented along with a slogan like "forged in steel" or something similar. Edited August 2, 2017 by Shezza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horrific kit (and I'm not being over emotional or exaggerational) Yes you are, you always are. It's a shirt, get over yourself ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Designed by Stevie Wonder" was the original suggestion I believe but there wasn't time to do the graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miffed Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Love the home shirt, haven't bought one in years but I'm definitely getting that. Would look nicer with black shorts instead of white but hey ho. away shirt I'm not so fussed about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenilworth Owl Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Both look terrible and poor quality to me. DC gone in house or just to a cheaper supplier, either way the end game is a poorer quality product and increased profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoadABallacks Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I like how the background image of the kits depicts our history as blue and white stripes, yet the chairman has decided to go for a crappy Arsenal style shirt based on a small fraction of our history.

Miffed Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Interested to now know what price these will be selling for and where they will be available to buy. It's probably safe to say that the only place to buy them is from the club shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangonrose Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Home kit nice (esp with the blue and white hooped socks we're promised, but obv hadn't arrived in time for the press shoot). White makes us look as though we're moving faster, and it's easier to spot out on the pitch. Away kit ok - BUT who really cares, so long as we're winning matches...

fpowl Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Either I've completely left st the plot or are we genuinely all using this as another excuse moan. The home kit I get its 150 years and I'm for going back to the roots for it the away kit I genuinely don't mind infact I'll go as far as saying I quite like it it reminds me of this bad boy. Bo idea what to make of the sponsor thoufhnim guessing this is a sponsership FFP with them making the kit. or a shrewd way into the kit manufacturaing market for chansiri and his new venture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'd call that a press shoot - more like a work experience lad shoot. So that's why Speedy Gonzales dressed like he did. I bet that rascal of a rodent wasn't as fast as I've always thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moffatowl Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Both kits absolutely rubbish. Our kit is blue and white stripes and black shorts. End of. The home kit is the same as the horrible 60's crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just bloody horrific. Like others have said, I 'get' the home kit and I actually like it. That away kit though looks like summat Att knocked up on MSPaint after watching Hull City play.
