The Kraken Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 Strangly, for those reasons you mention I actually prefer the Peru one. Both are fine shirts in their own right mind. Yeah the Peru one is very nice too. In general I'm just more of a fan of a football shirt with a proper collar than a round neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 Yeah the Peru one is very nice too. In general I'm just more of a fan of a football shirt with a proper collar than a round neck. Always found the collars to be a bit fussy and redundant on a sports shirt. Each to their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kraken Posted 24 May, 2014 Share Posted 24 May, 2014 And well done. Possibly the only style would consider buying so would have loved it to be true. Yeah, that's kind of why I knocked it up in the first place, I'm expecting nothing of the sort to actually be released. I'm not overwhelmingly a huge fan of stripes, and i welcome us doing different things so long as the kit looks good and represents something of Saints. Neither of our last two home kits have done that for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 24 May, 2014 Share Posted 24 May, 2014 For those craving a return to the Danish pyjama kit: Hummel have produced a bit of a throwback for Reims. Wouldn't get my vote.

The Kraken Posted 24 May, 2014 Share Posted 24 May, 2014 Not a huge fan of that Hummel shirt; but I wouldn't mind a full red and white halves shirt as a nod to history. A bit like this, but with white socks: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kraken Posted 24 May, 2014 Share Posted 24 May, 2014 On both Hummel kits I think they'd look better if the lighter side was more of a contrast. They're too similar, the lighter side needs to be lighter IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 24 May, 2014 Author Share Posted 24 May, 2014 Well that's tangible cobblers. Oops. Though I will say you couldn't have known that we'd go "own brand" in January because there was still 6 months to get another supplier in at that point... Good knowledge though. Oops, I appear to have bumped my original (and now very wrong) kit thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 24 May, 2014 Author Share Posted 24 May, 2014 Oh - I've got the Yellow one which went with the Light Blue one you're so keen on, and it's fine, EXCEPT it only comes down just past my navel, which because of the voluminous cut of the shirt, makes it very a very draughty wear. That can't be right, can it? Where has it been proven? Spain? Italy? World Cups? European Championships? You're forgetting the 2005/06 season Black/Red sweat-box away shirt It's proven? Put up the proof that "teams who wear all red strips are more successful". The yellow one was fine, unless you were Peter Crouch, who had to wear a t-shirt under it. As for the Red success myth, I have the article bookmarked (though I can't link it on my mobile) , it proves absolutely nothing about successful colours.

The9 Posted 24 May, 2014 Author Share Posted 24 May, 2014 Oh, here we go, the original "red is best" article... Except it doesn't actually say that. http://www.dur.ac.uk/r.a.hill/Attrill_et_al_2008.pdf I didn't have any problem with that black/red kit either. Slightly narked that the "original" kit thread has been moved though (presumably merged)... If you haven't read it, don't bother arguing about it. That's my 3 for the day, so hope the link works!

Better than our last two efforts admittedly, but the white sleeves are too Arsenal for my liking. Away version is better but again would not be first choice.

BlakeySFC Posted 25 May, 2014 Share Posted 25 May, 2014 Revert to page 1 You don't keep to keep banging your drum MLT, you say it's an own-brand kit, fair enough but other sources have said that it could EITHER be an own-brand kit or an obscure manufacturer that hardly any of us have heard of, I'm hoping it's the latter as the quality could be slightly better but it won't really matter either way really, it's just nice to speculate.

While I absolutely love the Hummel kits of old (my first shirt as a kid), I'm not feeling it now. This is all pretending that MLT isn't right and we're not going 'own-brand' of course.
