New Kit...

[Deano6]

Are some of you genuinely happy/upset about the kit?

 

Sorry, unless you are a bird, that's a bit gay don't you think?

 

And what would be wrong with being gay?

In Stooey world it's even worse than being a student.... or a woman.

Im astonished 85% of you lot like it. I think it is awful. We dont look like Southampton anymore. It looks like a traning polo top. Bloody Awful.

I'm amazed that people keep saying stuff like 'we don't look like Southampton anymore' when we've known for months that it was going to be a sash kit. :smt102

You can't get more traditional than wearing a kit based on the first ever kit.

No, i quite like that actually, pretty good idea

[kpturner]

If you go to the saints web site and hover your mouse over Lamberts midrift you get a tooltip saying "Norman" ?! Is that his nickname for his **** or what?

I've only read up to post 225....all got a bit "samey" so I skipped to the end :-)

Does anyone know the writing colour on the back. If its red it will be pretty much like England's

[dune]

I like the fact it has a collar.

[for_heaven's_Saint]

I'm tempted to get something on the back, even though it is slightly childish, but not sure what to get. Don't really want a current player, or my own name. Might just get the number 7. Is it stupid to get an old player's name on a new kit? Might get Le Tissier...

Here's a theory. It's called an alt tag. Images on websites have them. If you turned off the images to make your dial up connection run a bit quicker then that is what would be displayed. Good for SEO but let's stick on topic here. It doesn't matter where you hover over that photo it will display Norman as that is what is in the alt tag. It isn't like hovering over a facebook picture to see who is who. Why Norman is there i don't know however.

To be fair, if it reaches his midrift he should call it Kong...

[doggface]

Ok now I have seen the kit in the "flesh" here is my verdict.

 

IMO it is the best kit we have ever had, however a couple of disappointments.

Although the label is "tailored by Umbro", it is not a true tailored by kit imo as it is 100% nylon and not the gorgeous cotton poly mix seen on the england/city/ireland/sweden kits which is so comfortable. That said, those mixes lose their shape easily and don't wear well. The material is nice though and comfortable.

The sizes are "fitted" but again not true tailored by which usually come in half sizes 36,38,40,42 etc.

There are a couple of nice little bespoke features on the shirts like the red and gold triangle ehich is saints branded 125 behind the umbro logo. Even the red nose works well!

Really nice design simple & classic exactly what I was hoping for apart from the fabric.

8/10.

 

p.s it's viewable in the shop.

Who's the w****r in the sash, you hear the away fans singing it.

As a football fan I can't bring myself to use the word sa..

 

I'm with Stu, it's gay.

 

Can't we call it a stripe FFS?

 

Stripes can be any angle.

 

See Red Stripe for proof.

[Minty]

Technically, I guess on this kit it's NOT a sash. It was on the original, because it was a seperate sash that went over the white shirt. But I would say this is a 'diagonal stripe'.

 

Not that actually matters in the slightest. Nor is the word sash 'gay'. But each to their own.

Seriously, in what hetoresexual context would you ever use the word 'sash'???

 

Feck me I'm all for metrosexual man but really?

[Legod Third Coming]

Cor that was a good goal to start a World Cup!!!

[kpturner]

Here's a theory. It's called an alt tag.

It is an interesting theory, but then those who really know HTML will realise that this tooltip comes from the title tag - not the alt tag.

[dune]

I bet some spags start singing "come on you reds".

[dune]

im getting "I 8 Pomp3y"

 

Won't you look a pillock. It'll suit you.

You must be a winner at parties. I think my description is fine for the layman (Trousers) thanks.

Lol. It's quite simple really. A 'sash' is a word of Arabic origin, traditionally a cloth belt used to hold a robe together, and also used for decorative purposes to pass from shoulder to hip.

 

It's a noun to describe a piece of clothing. Nothing more, nothing less.

I hope that those who moaned about the lack of an installment plan don't buy this and spend the money on food for their family.

[Saints Warrior]

Will get one. Not sure on the sash but growing on me. Wasnt this one of the options for the last home game at Dell, but then it was the quater shirt

[sperm_john]

Pretty over whelming support for the kit then! should fly off the shelves, could even be worn during the england games over the world cup lol

With less than 48 hours notice?! Surely this can't and won't happen?!
