The Long Overdue Pointless 2015/16 (Adidas) Kit Thread

Every stupid joke idea is already being done seriously somewhere... Next season's MLS numbers will look a bit like this....

Oh dear. When Pimply see this, they will have their next money raising tool. Selling places on their shirt numbers to the fishy few!

i've heard that the new shirt will surprise and please many saints fans. can't reveal too much at this stage, but it's going to be arguably the best kit we've ever had.

Very subjective though isn't it. Even if is was based on one of the old 'favourites' that people go on about, I bet there'd be a big difference of a opinion about it.

 

Looking forward to it nonetheless.

i've just spunked $500 on kit and accessories (dog lead? water bottle?). I went for small mans size for my 13 year old, as a result of ridiculous sizing comments on here.

 

Anyone coming to Oz/Brisbane in the near future? We want some more merchandise, but I don't like the GBP20 postage cost - it's not that bad tbh.

Here's to the real Kit thread!

Why the hell would you do that?

The kit manufacturer has done a tremendous job. It is very rare I am lost for words but I saw the kit last week and it is awesome - a tremendous tribute to a great club. Fans have waited a long time for this and it is going to be fantastic. I really believe it will be the best football kit anywhere both in style and the amount of detail. I think everyone is very excited to see the work under way and to know it will be a reality next July.

Let's be creative with the red and white. Like Coventry were.

Jesus, who let that one get through the common sense filter? The shirt is coloured red and looks like it has just been violently thrown through a windscreen. And it's got Peugeot on the front.

 

The French director signing that off must have seen something deeper in it, dedicated follower of fashion, perhaps.

 

"Non, non. C'est bon!" :)

I've seen the new official club boots and they are incredibly detailed.

Thank f**k for that!

Fortunately the numbers are provided by the Football League and they won't have any say in the matter.

I never quite get the point of these kind of posts. Adidas launch a new set of kits every season, with different layout, material shapes and so on - we know it'll be striped, people are saying it'll be adidas, and yes, that's a striped adidas kit - but it definitely won't be that 2012 adidas style. At very worst with adidas it'll be a current 2014 design and they rarely use those for "proper" teams, so pretty comfortable it'll be a new 2015 style. (Sunderland's stupid "last season's design but not last season's kit all white 3rd kit" as used at Palace on Monday was one of those times they had to bolt on an emergency 3rd kit and the 2013 template is understandable).

 

I'm not sure how difficult it is to picture "red and white stripes with adidas stripes on" as a general concept without needing to see an out of date version that it isn't, so I don't understand why it's relevant to be using old pics of old styles as if it will look like that, we're already into "2015 details".

 

Speculation about other brands is still fair game (can't really go off the ITKers at this stage much as I'd like to, not enough proof - but it'll be gospel in a few months nevertheless) and all 2015 designs are relevant for that reason. I think we're safe from the dreaded all red, but even so, there's nothing wrong with working other previous designs into the mix (sash, halves, quarters, broad stripe, etc) because there's an outside chance that it's possible it might be those too.

 

But a 2012 design that happens to be red/white and adidas, it's not that.

Why the hell would you do that?

 

It's only £250 plus P&P, that's what it costs for a shirt £50, shorts £25 and socks £10 for home, away and keeper's kit (which also doubles as the yellow alternate away shorts and socks). Plus he said accessories - and probably training kit too.

 

I just hope it fits. :o

 

Seeing as I just mentioned yellow alternate shorts and socks, I wonder whether we'll bust out a completely new yellow outfielder shirt against Palace away on Boxing Day? We've already worn the yellow shorts and socks this season, and Palace's blue/red was adjudged to clash with Sunderland's stripes and their light blue away, wouldn't be surprise if the officials decide our red home and navy away are also too similar to their shirts.

 

In which case, I want them to sell a replica of it... annoys me when we wear stuff you can't buy.

 

Examples:

 

They never sold the yellow away shirt from this season, only the 1976 commemorative version without the sponsor. Pretty sure they also didn't sell the yellow shorts we wore for almost the entire season when Burley just decided the yellow looked better than the blue.

They didn't sell the white FA Cup semi final shorts:

Or the white shorts we wore against Leicester away in the FA Cup in the mid 2000s (or the black alternate socks we also wore at some point in the 3 years we had that style of sock). Both were the reverse of the black/white normal home kit and worn with the usual home shirts in this style:

Or last season's Cup alternates:

Black adidas shorts

We didn't sell these red shorts in 2009 (which were also alternate shorts with the home kit at Watford and Hull) and we didn't sell the red socks that were also a charcoal alternate - and that we wore for more of the 2008/9 season than the charcoal itself:

A few more recent adidas kits for 2015, showing similar themes to previous designs with the band around the bottom of the shirt and the motif with the holes in it.

They didn't wear that kit against Tottenham. They wore a black kit that was pretty similar to our black kit last season.

 

Ah, wondered what you meant - I didn't see it at the time. That's still a fair bit rarer than the gazillion variations of the home kit from last year doing the rounds, including the near-inexplicable "all white with blue trim" kit that Sunderland wore at Palace the other week (when they had a perfectly good set of yellow shirts sitting around from last season).

 

Still wondering if we're going to be breaking out yellow third shirts for Palace or if we'll get away with the home kit (which Sunderland didn't) or navy shirts/yellow/yellow.

I really rate this.

I like a bit of a funky away kit.

 

A good strong home kit (Rank Xerox / Feyanood) with something modern n different as the away kit. keep everyone happy.

New Bayern shirt leaked for 2015/16, can't see much of the design though. You'd think Umbro might want a word...

Of course the big kit news of the past week has been this, which might set an unfortunate precedent for striped teams trying hoops:

That's if you don't think Saints launching new red/yellow training kit is more interesting. :D

 

More adidas styles (that we've already seen):

 

Universidad de Chile

Away kit on the left here is the same style as the white Mexico/navy Colombia shirts above:

Barcelona fans must be thinking something similar with the leaks of their HOOPED home shirts for next season. (Pics above) :o

 

 

Any new info '9 on what saints can expect next season? From info the last few years, it's normally signed off on by Jan.

An early leak of what half our team will be wearing next season... ;)

Warrior are rebranding to use the New Balance name, in boots as well as shirts - and this is Liverpool's 2015/16 shirt.

Looks like the kind of abortion the Italian would have saddled us with.
