Saint Charlie Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Its not that bad. Would be better with the sponsor and badges in white but hardly worth the vitriole some on here have given it. Better than last year IMO.
Smirking_Saint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 I like it as a kit but its not saints, its more or less a liverpool kit Oh, and thats obviously a hash up, the badge is wonky
alpine_saint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 OMG, that's crapper than crap. The gold makes it even tackier...
Saint Garrett Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Its not that bad. Would be better with the sponsor and badges in white but hardly worth the vitriole some on here have given it. Better than last year IMO. Not difficult...both vile shirts. https://www.facebook.com/groups/saveourstripes/?hc_location=stream
once_bitterne Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 OMG, that's crapper than crap. The gold makes it even tackier... The big question tho Alps is will it come in size XXXXL?????
Saint Charlie Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 The actual kit is fine for what it is, a football kit. The gold wouldn't be my choice but its laughbale how much people seem to get bothered by it all. Its a football kit.
alpine_saint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 The big question tho Alps is will it come in size XXXXL????? For you, maybe. I wont be buying that design under any circumstances. First kit with addidas. What a wasted opportunity to produce a memorable classic.
Saint J 77 Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 I keep trying to tell myself that it could be worse, but I am not sure it could!
Golden Balls Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Terrible. Will be made worse by having red shorts.
skintsaint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Not a great kit if that's the finished article.. Trouble is my stripes shirt it starting to look worn and tatty...look like a tramp playing footie in it. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
JRM Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 we are a Bristol City / Nottingham Forest red club now , not red and white as saints should be. it's more than just a kit as others said , it represents the club, what if Celtic changed to an all green home kit? 3/10 for effort addidas
Mowgli Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 There's a touch of irony that all these people (including me) who wear football shirts feel qualified to comment on what is / is not fasionable to wear.
Verbal Kint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Terrible. Will be made worse by having red shorts. This. With black shorts and white socks it wouldn't be too awful but with all red shorts and socks it will look ****e, just as last year's did. And yet people will still queue up for it...
Saint Charlie Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Would look best IMO with white logos and white shorts and socks. Away shirt should be class.
doubleonothing Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Hopefully it's a training kit and the real shirt has stripes! And then we'll all look stupid! (Straws, clutching @)
skintsaint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Just showed a couple of work colleagues and their input was "shirt it alright...just not Southampton though is it." Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
ant Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Ha, I quite like it. Would've worked better with Lotus F1 on the front but not going to throw a wobbly.
St.Patrik Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Think your onto something here (at least I hope you are) Hopefully it's a training kit and the real shirt has stripes! And then we'll all look stupid! (Straws, clutching @)
tajjuk Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 I like it as a kit but its not saints, its more or less a liverpool kit Oh, and thats obviously a hash up, the badge is wonky Glad someone else noticed. That is quite obviously a template that someone has printed onto.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Nope, that's it. The away is obviously the black and silver with the V on the front.
Batman Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Nope, that's it. The away is obviously the black and silver with the V on the front. that is the one I am getting.
Saint Charlie Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Nope, that's it. The away is obviously the black and silver with the V on the front. That will look good.
Colinjb Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 I believe the away shirt will be black with gold trim, not silver.
Pilchards Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Three years ago we had a brilliant team photo of the sash shirt, two years ago 5 players showing off the shirt stripe shirt. Last year all the players wearing the shirt with the stadium in the background. This year the shirt is laid on a cupboard ****ing box. Can't say the marketing team is doing wonders for us?
DT Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Could have been a lot worse. Wonky badge though. Gold is a bit naff. Doubt if their designers spent too long on this to be honest.
CB Fry Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Don't worry. Mad Frank on here has already told us that only people on this forum won't like it. Saints fans "in the real world" will absolutely love it. This forum is in no way representative of what real Saints fans think.
Dig Dig Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Don't worry. Mad Frank on here has already told us that only people on this forum won't like it. Saints fans "in the real world" will absolutely love it. This forum is in no way representative of what real Saints fans think. Will you be picking up the kit CB, socks n' all?
Stoozer Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 What a shame. We could have done something really special with Adidas and stripes. In itself it's not a bad kit but it's not "Saints" to me and describing something as "not bad" isn't really a ringing endorsement. For the second year I won't be buying the kit. Looks like I'll be buying a retro striped shirt.
Hatch Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 That kit would look great. On a recreation footy pitch at 11am on a Sunday morning being worn by fat blokes from the pub. For a Premier League team trying to be a 'brand' it is bollx. #pubfootball

For a Premier League team trying to be a 'brand' it is bollx. #pubfootball In reality, it will look crap worn by pub fatties but probably fine on professionals.
Hatch Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 and is also probably the reason all these transfer targets are turning us down. Target A ' I'm not wearing that shyte' Agent ' He will for an extra million quid' Cortese ' Both of you get out'
Saint Charlie Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Any takers on the first #saintsfc moron to take a pic of themselves queuing outside the megastore?
once_bitterne Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Three years ago we had a brilliant team photo of the sash shirt, two years ago 5 players showing off the shirt stripe shirt. Last year all the players wearing the shirt with the stadium in the background. This year the shirt is laid on a cupboard ****ing box. Can't say the marketing team is doing wonders for us? Indeed. I mean that is the actual marketing photo that has been taken and will be plastered all over the O/S tomorrow at 9am......
LuckyNumber7 Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Awful. It'll be the Championship promotion shirt again for me next season.
Webby Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 People bang on about stripes. Red and white stripes. Ever heard us sing 'come on you whites'?
trousers Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 (edited) I just showed it to a 'friend' on Facebook and his first comment was: "Nah, that can't be right, Saints would never get rid of their stripes"... at which point I showed him a picture of last season's kit. Obviously word doesn't travel as fast as we thought it did... Edited 27 June, 2013 by trousers
trousers Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Oh, and one of my Dutch friends just posted.... "OMG! Aap means 'monkey' in Dutch"....
Colinjb Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Oh, and one of my Dutch friends just posted.... "OMG! Aap means 'monkey' in Dutch".... Yep. We are sponsored by a cubed monkey!
Scummer Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 The more I look at the photo the more suspicious I am. Saints badge isn't straight, and also looks like it's been photoshopped (blurring round the edges of the Saints badge and the Adidas logo).
Bananaman Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Oh, and one of my Dutch friends just posted.... "OMG! Aap means 'monkey' in Dutch".... Will look great if we ever play in europe
Batman Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 The more I look at the photo the more suspicious I am. Saints badge isn't straight, and also looks like it's been photoshopped (blurring round the edges of the Saints badge and the Adidas logo). its obviously out kit.
JN9 Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 its obviously out kit. I seem to be only one of a few that really don't think that is the kit that will be unveiled tomorrow.... I hope I'm right as well, its bloody awful. But like I said, I just can't see it...
alpine_saint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 I believe the away shirt will be black with gold trim, not silver. Great, lets all look like a barmaid behind the bar at the Rovers Return......
OttawaSaint Posted 27 June, 2013 Posted 27 June, 2013 Clever ploy by the club, those wanting stripes will be frothing at the mouth to buy a shirt when they finally bring them back....with a hefty hike in the price...
