Batman Posted 1 June, 2013 Share Posted 1 June, 2013 Yes, they quite obviously do. Are you here to tell us that everyone shouldn't really be bothered again? that is your trick isnt it? telling people not to get so 'upity' on a message board I was just asking as it seems many new kits are "horrible" to a few here? I may be wrong, just an impression given when scanning this thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong, just an impression given when scanning this thread No; there was a just a previous poster on here who regularly arrived on posts telling people they shouldn't be worried about things that he, well, wasn't worried about. I sensed your post was running along the same lines. And of course some new kits are "horrible". The Cardiff one is disgusting; so is the Boro one. The West Ham one IMO is very nice, as are a lot of the templates. Its called having an opinion and expressing it. Kind of what message boards are for, really.

Good for you. Personally, I would find that almost exactly the same as our current kit, and therefore pretty sh*t. There we go. Opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doggface Posted 1 June, 2013 Share Posted 1 June, 2013 What chance of a picture leak this year?

The9 Posted 1 June, 2013 Author Share Posted 1 June, 2013 Just me that thinks the white shirt/blue shorts looks dreadful on the whu kit? Home is nice though. Yeah, they've only done that to use the light blue as an alternate to the white home shorts and socks, they'll probably play in all white most of the time where they can.

Restark19 Posted 1 June, 2013 Share Posted 1 June, 2013 (edited) no? Feyenoord 12/13 kit. I know it's Puma and we're going adidas but imagine this with aap3 and the saints badge, so much better than what we have at the moment Edited 1 June, 2013 by Restark19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 1 June, 2013 Author Share Posted 1 June, 2013 I'm not entirely against a halved kit or a sash kit every other year, I could even put up with the odd all red shirt, provided we wear stripes more often than not. This is frankly a significant climb-down on my part, but I was thinking about Lens kits the other day, and they've worn pretty much every combination of "sang et or" in the last 10 years - the difference being that "blood and gold" is a fairly unique colour scheme which is distinctive in itself, red and white is already the most popular colour combination in use, which is why a particular style or pattern is needed to provide the identity. As it is we're either Sunderland or Liverpool, at least Stoke are white shorts and socks. The halves would be unique, just as the sash is, both set in history and if we ARE going to "rebrand" away from stripes, those would be my preferences.

The9 Posted 1 June, 2013 Author Share Posted 1 June, 2013 Not so keen on this Rapid Vienna template though (same as the West Ham away minus the pinstripes and underarm contrast), it needs contrast sleeves on both sides and that advert makes the aap3 and umbro flybe look subtle. The back must be plain green as well judging by the side panel colours : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I would prefer halves (similar to the Rapid Vienna template above)/quarters to all red/red with white pinstripes...but I have a nasty feeling this kit will be VERY red with a tiny amount of white.

Badger Posted 1 June, 2013 Share Posted 1 June, 2013 Halves or quarters would be a great improvement on this season. Feyenoord kit looks a classic design: no? Feyenoord 12/13 kit. I know it's Puma and we're going adidas but imagine this with aap3 and the saints badge, so much better than what we have at the moment Not so keen on this Rapid Vienna template though (same as the West Ham away minus the pinstripes and underarm contrast), it needs contrast sleeves on both sides and that advert makes the aap3 and umbro flybe look subtle. The back must be plain green as well judging by the side panel colours : Red & white in the above would be an improvement over this season. No sorry, this below is dreadful, even Cardiff only managed to mismatch the reds between shirt and shorts, not on the same item: Had a little play and devised this. Quite like it actually!
