Only problem is that the sleeves are too long. I think next season's kits should be in this style: Might help with offside decisions going our way.... 1
Saint86 Posted 5 May, 2021 Posted 5 May, 2021 This was on the 4th page of threads which means I'm guessing the answer to this is probably a no.... 😄 But... has anyone heard any more news on the kits for next season or when they might be announced? Hold an glimmer of an outside hope that we might give the new kit an outing in the final game of the season.

EBS1980 Posted 5 May, 2021 Posted 5 May, 2021 They don’t seem to be shy promoting Hummel though, their “wallpaper Wednesday” graphics had some nice Hummel stripes in the background today. 1
Saint86 Posted 5 May, 2021 Posted 5 May, 2021 (edited) Well, i noted that the store webpage has been offline for "maintenance" for a couple of days now, and was cheekily wondering if there might be an announcement coming soon etc. Edited 5 May, 2021 by Saint86
alehouseboys Posted 5 May, 2021 Posted 5 May, 2021 Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if we get a Hummel launch soon but Under Armor are still under contract so will expect the exposure until the end. But the way UA have fooked the club around over the deal I'm sure they'd happily kick them out the door sooner. 1

doggface Posted 6 May, 2021 Posted 6 May, 2021 100% photoshop, though my guess is the home shirt will not be miles off this if indeed a modern version of the 89-91 home kit

doggface Posted 6 May, 2021 Posted 6 May, 2021 On a 5 year deal, they have 5 home kits to make so I’m sure that will be reimagined in the next few seasons

Saint Garrett Posted 7 May, 2021 Posted 7 May, 2021 Confirmed last night as stripes, and club is really excited about the kit with Hummel. Isn't templated, and supposedly very nice indeed with lots of little Saints related touches. 2
rooney Posted 7 May, 2021 Posted 7 May, 2021 Thank goodness our stripes are back but I hope there is no bra effect at the top. 1
The Kraken Posted 8 May, 2021 Posted 8 May, 2021 I suppose it’s time for a return to standard stripes for a season. 5 year contract with Hummel. I think I’d quite like to see us putting in a stripes variant every 2 or 3 seasons though, as we’ve had with the Rank Xerox and the sash. Ideally I’d like a return of the late 80s half and half, if not that a feyenoord style half and half at some point, that’s got some tradition for us from way back and IMO looks good. 1
Pedantic Pete Posted 8 May, 2021 Posted 8 May, 2021 (edited) I know someone who works at another club (nowhere near the premier league) who have just signed with Hummel. He said the proposed kit designs even for their club that they have been shown are really good. Some were new designs but with a mix of retro stuff as well. He was really, really impressed with Hummel's team and the effort they are making to produce something that meets the clubs aspirations. I am hopeful Hummel will be a really good partner!

charliemiller Posted 9 May, 2021 Posted 9 May, 2021 Really hope the Black third kit is what was put on twitter a few weeks backs , its like a thin red and white psg stripe down the middle ......looks really really nice

If clubs thought about kit clashes there would never be a need for 3rd kits however that’s not the main consideration anymore.

Wurzel Posted 14 May, 2021 Posted 14 May, 2021 Any likelihood of us wearing the new kit in any of the games left this season? See Chelsea have already announced they are doing that. Can't see UA would give a toss if we did and no change in sponsorship issues.

Saint Garrett Posted 14 May, 2021 Posted 14 May, 2021 I think it's unlikely, especially if we're spanning different contracts (UA / Hummel)

You are correct as the Club made their own kit in those far flung days. Probably Rupes had set up a Factory in Bangladesh with cheap labour.
EBS1980 Posted 20 May, 2021 Posted 20 May, 2021 Everton are announcing their away kit tomorrow (assume ahead of wearing vs City on last day). Would give us a few clues on style possibly used for ours?

JCBSaint Posted 21 May, 2021 Posted 21 May, 2021 No more sash! This seasons in my opinion was smart but fir me not really us. I do think there is a case to freshen up from time to time but there’s too much red. I think more white with red rather than other way round but def no more sash. Stripes or the early keegan variants are classic looks. Nobody has that early 80’s look anywhere in all the leagues as far I am aware, def not in the top flight. Rumours are stripes which I will be happy with. I have to say the under armour stuff was too fussy.

I really like the away sash kit and would be more than happy to keep it and have more often than the "Keegan variant". If there is a change I'd be just as happy to have stripes. The sash could easily become the kit everyone knows as our style of kit. 2
Badger Posted 22 May, 2021 Posted 22 May, 2021 I'd like to see the sash reserved for anniversary kits.

Badger Posted 22 May, 2021 Posted 22 May, 2021 Okay, don't suppose they could resist that link to launch it, but agree with you 135 years isn't such a noteworthy milestone to commemorate.
