The9 Posted 19 June, 2013 Author Posted 19 June, 2013 Sorry The9, just grabbed the nearest red shirt to put the lines on. Didn't think you mind as it was for a joke on this forum! (I guess referencing the ****ty graphic that announced the Adidas deal on the OS, has been lost. Not that it was a good gag, but hey!) FYI there are a couple of shirt ideas for other teams doing the rounds that are also using your original mock up! I'm not bothered at all, and as for twitter... they're welcome to it, I won't be using it any time soon. Anyone can take a pic of a teamwear kit, shove it into Paint.NET and stick a Saints badge on it...
lloydie Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 diagonals maybe That would look smart in red with white pinstripes! Mock up someone??
DaK AttacK Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 Long time lurker here....thought I'd contribute to the pointlessness and make a mock up using an Ajax shirt:
niceandfriendly Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 nice shirt. would be cool as a one off (another one!) but still hope we don't lose our stripes forever. Unless we changed to go for the sash shirt every year which I would also be happy with!
Downthe36 Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 Long time lurker here....thought I'd contribute to the pointlessness and make a mock up using an Ajax shirt: I'd be so happy with this, it won't be though.
The9 Posted 19 June, 2013 Author Posted 19 June, 2013 It definitely won't be that, it's a 2012 template, you can see the white flash across at the end of the 3 stripes which is in a contrast colour on the 2012/13 Stoke and West Brom kits. Still going to be better than anything all red though.
Bananaman Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 Love the reverse Ajax... If only life was that good to us It gonna be awful isn't it...
SO16_Saint Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 I'm sure that as a kid shirts weren't changed as regularly as they are nowadays? New shirt in each of the last 4 seasons at least, and another one set for this season - and again next season. We seem to be accepting of this but I think it's wrong. Understand why clubs do it though

Understand why clubs do it though It is more than from years back but I don't have a problem with it. No-one forces you to buy the shirt, and if people stopped buying shirts then the change every year wouldn't happen. So it satisfies demand. And you can't really complain if you buy an item of clothing and a year later it needs replacing.

Bought home and away last season, a will prob get home this....regardless of the design.

Saint Garrett Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 I buy one every five years on average. Bought the sash, previous one was out relegation shirt, previous was our first yr at st Mary's. I don't wear it enough to make it worthwhile to buy every year. I will happily buy next years if its nice and decent stripes, but right now if its ****ty Liverpool kit I will keep my money!
teacher Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 Long time lurker here....thought I'd contribute to the pointlessness and make a mock up using an Ajax shirt: Really like this!
trousers Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 Mug. Person in spending their money as they want to shocker...
hypochondriac Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 Person in spending their money as they want to shocker... Oh he is perfectly entitled to buy whatever he wants. He admitted the charge anyway...

The aap3 logo is all wrong of course. But this would obviously have to be, as the twitter picture says, a really rough version that a fan has designed. Presumably after hearing a description of the kit. I know its very unlikely to be genuine but I think a lot of us would prefer this kit design to the all red shirt designs we have been speculating we are about to get for the last couple of weeks. Edited 20 June, 2013 by Saint J 77
trousers Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 Here you go. An interesting hybrid. Would maybe satisfy most camps - mostly red but incorporating stripes. There again...
Saint Fan CaM Posted 19 June, 2013 Posted 19 June, 2013 (edited) Here you go. Liking that quite a bit...but the mia san mia inside collar ("we are who we are") is from FC Bayern Munich, so this kit is somewhat unlikely. Edited 19 June, 2013 by Saint Fan CaM
Polaroid Saint Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Here you go. Fixed it. Pfft. Sorry, couldn't resist. I'll stop now I promise.
Fozzybear Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Here you go. I quite like this one, still much prefer the rank xerox-esq mock up, but would be pleased with this design all the same.
JRM Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 are saints now the only club to have not announced any new kit or first team friendlies ? not sure if it's down to us being unorganised or just not bothered about announcing things at the end of the season.
sussexsaint Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Worth another quote to bring it back to the thread again, can whoever made this send it to the powers that be, I would buy it in a heartbeat
tajjuk Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Here you go. I'd be happy with this hope there is some truth in this. It's obviously a mock up but maybe someone has done after seeing/hearing about the actual design. are saints now the only club to have not announced any new kit or first team friendlies ? not sure if it's down to us being unorganised or just not bothered about announcing things at the end of the season. The following clubs have announced their new kits:- Chelsea Liverpool Man City Man Utd Newcastle (away) Aston Villa Cardiff Norwich Palace Stoke (away) Sunderland (away) Swansea West Ham Hull (away) Thing is we only got the deal sorted with adidas recently so it will take use a bit longer plus lets hope Cortese is busy with all these transfer negotiations!
The9 Posted 20 June, 2013 Author Posted 20 June, 2013 West Ham don't seem to be struggling with switching to adidas, could that be because they're more organised than us? That striped thing is horrible, and doesn't correspond to any description we've heard on here. At least it's a current 13/14 template though.

Why ? Are you seriously suggesting the discussion about the kit appearance only started when the deal was finalised ?
alpine_saint Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 West Ham don't seem to be struggling with switching to adidas, could that be because they're more organised than us? You should know by now that such comments on here are viewed as base treachery..

New shirt in each of the last 4 seasons at least, and another one set for this season - and again next season. We seem to be accepting of this but I think it's wrong. Understand why clubs do it though The one year cycle has been in use for about 5 years now, it was specifically announced for Saints' Umbro deal in 2008, and Adidas have done it for all clubs for a similar time. Spurs have been changing 3 kits a season since 2000 though, which was around the time the UK government recommended a minimum 2 year duration, after parents' complaints led to a working party investigation.
Supersubpuckett Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 The deal would have been in discussion for months as Umbro knew ages ago they wouldn't be supplying kits next season due to their change in ownership. The club probably feel they will sell more if they build up demand/anticipation through a delayed launch. Also, we will be selecting our kit from one of their templates as we don't sell enough to warrant a bespoke design.

Also, we will be selecting our kit from one of their templates as we don't sell enough to warrant a bespoke design. Everyone gets one of their templates, but there are levels of template : 1) "Variation on a template with a bit of trim or pattern where others don't have it and a weave or pattern that is unique to the club" (eg Bayern's diamond weave), 2) "Standard template, but with a bit of a club-related tweak" (West Ham's pinstriped away, MLS kits with the print pattern) 3) "You can have that Hull away/Hearts away/Bolton teamwear one for one of the kits, what colour do you want it in?" to 4) "Here's the catalogue, we're putting your badge on it". I think we're sitting somewhere between 2 and 3, we just don't know where exactly yet.
The9 Posted 20 June, 2013 Author Posted 20 June, 2013 Oh, and just noticed the thread was started on 19th December 2012 (yeah, it really WAS pointless and early!), so a chorus of footballing trumpets for the 6 month "halfiversary". ...yesterday.

The9 Posted 20 June, 2013 Author Posted 20 June, 2013 I see a deep V neck on the Fulham shirt. That's unique in English kits so far (Aberdeen have it though), unless of course the rumours about Saints' away are right ? Did we get any clarity from the ITKers on the 3 areas of conjecture I posted ? Oh, and I believe that makes Saints and West Brom the only remaining Prem clubs to not have either released a shirt, promoted a shirt with a release date, or had a shirt leaked.
berkshiresaint Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Here you go. Probably the best one I have seen from all the mock up's
SO16_Saint Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 (edited) Probably the best one I have seen from all the mock up's Shame it's not correct . But we will see for sure in a week or so Edited 20 June, 2013 by SO16_Saint
SO16_Saint Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Can u tell us anymore so16 ? seen it yet? Heard whispers from good sources, and it's similar but not right.
Pamplemousse Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Heard whispers from good sources, and it's similar but not right. Are you suggesting that there is some form of stripes?
SO16_Saint Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Are you suggesting that there is some form of stripes? Couldn't get specifics. Will advise more when I can, and when people won't lose jobs etc!!
darren2 Posted 20 June, 2013 Posted 20 June, 2013 Hope this works, but (Not saying I like it being in the stripes camp) how about this??
