Saints Kits Season 2024/25 - Page 24 NSFW

[LuckyNumber7]

Why is it so fucking difficult to put stripes on the back of the shirt?

Looking at the pics on the OS, have we basically got the same shorts for both home and away?

Pretty much, same design. Away shorts are Navy with Yellow.

Pretty sure its a UEFA/EPL rule that prohibits striped backs. Has been since 2015 ish I think.

Welcome to the world of corporate buzz words.

I really enjoyed watching the launch, 20 mins of watching people sipping beers then Kenzie building the excitement, super stuff. 

Kits ordered. 

[The Kraken]

No idea why all of our kits have to have the cheap, terrible looking massive vinyl sponsor over the front. Every year the same.

The Starling Bank one actually looks alright.

Any pics of the third kit?

[SNSUN]

I don't mind the shirt, I don't like the sponsor - but whatever the club thinks is financially our best option then so be it. I get the home shirt as a Christmas present from the wife every year so it's not like I have to spend my own hard earned on it.

I do need a new Saints hoody though...

[bpsaint]

Why do we persist with plain backs, they look shit.

[JCBSaint]

It’s ok, clean, simple, just a shame it’s a plain back, I just don’t get that. There’s no need, a black number would have looked great on a striped back. I won’t get one because of that. Maybe next year. 

[goodymatt]

Kits are fine, sponsor does ruin them but if that’s the biggest offer then we take it. 

For me red and white stripes for home and a yellow away kit is my preference, so can’t complain.

It's a UEFA/EPL Guideline sadly.

Except it’s never policed, and other striped teams like Brentford don’t adhere to it.

[sadoldgit]

Don’t mind the shirts although the bib effect is a bit strange. Much prefer the home shirt to last year’s effort. Is the third kit really pink?

Agree with everyone about the sponsor’s logo.

Said for years that we should wear yellow & black, not yellow & blue. However, The kits are fairly bobbins. Home looks like a non-league affair. Sponsor looks terrible. 

Complete lack of imagination, again.

Changed my mind - cheers for the photos.  Sponsor lets them down a bit though.

UEFA, not EPL. Look at Newcastle last season.

Awful.

And what happens with the player name and those 5 white lines? Name printed under it would be far too low so got to print over them?

Very glad I don’t buy Saints shirts as this one is very poor.

I know there’s a guideline for those who qualify but we don’t! 
I just think it’s a ridiculous rule no matter the team, we have been watching striped  backs for decades, now somebody that probably had nothing to do that day decides we all have to have plain backs, we could see the numbers perfectly fine  years ago, now somehow it’s too difficult? Absolutely ridiculous, it ruins a kit in my opinion. At least for another year I save on having to buy one. 

[gammon cheeks]

Both kits are really good .

[Dr Who?]

Waited all this time for that. Not that I will buy it for myself, but will for the boy. I will only get training tops, and they are not up to much.

What an abortion.

Really have to wonder about the people in charge of our club, and the commercial dept. 

How do other clubs manage it.

[Cascadia Saint]

Someone needs to mockup a Draper Tools logo exactly the same size as this shite logo and then sell it as an iron on patch on Etsy.

Edited 16 July, 2024 by Cascadia Saint

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Looks okay. Basic, with a decent collar, feature at the bottom to give it a boost and an interesting back. The away kit looks more than okay.

Shame I missed the stream, but I didn't want to risk flashbacks of cringy work events.

Sunday League shirt lol

I believe the phrase that best describes that is "low effort". 

I know the profit margins on all football shirts are obscene but seriously, how much are they charging for that piece of market-quality tat?

Agreed.

[OttawaSaint]

Didn't realise we had so many fashion experts on here!

I think both kits look great.

[hypochondriac]

Quite like the away kit. Home kit is pretty low effort though.

Why do the socks look like they're designed to prevent strokes post operation?!?!

[Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd]

I guess that kit manufacturers knock up a handful of designs for the club to then choose the ones they like best?

If this is the case then whoever has the final say at Saints clearly has little taste. Other than last season, which was a safe bet as it was a replica of a popular 80's kit, Saints shirts have been piss poor for years. 

It can't be a case of every manufacturer being rubbish at designing kits. They seem to do ok with other clubs so it must be that we have Stevie Wonder making the final decision.

Trying to capture the older fan?

[Osvaldorama]

I like them, just wish the criminal sponsor badge was a bit smaller 

Ruins the whole shirt 

[Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd]

The more I look at these the more I think Cambridge Utd & Exeter City. 😩

[Polaroid Saint]

The home kit on the players look okay, if utterly uninspired. 

The ones hanging up in the shop look shockingly terrible.

I think it's the extra fabric in XL etc, is adding an extra white strip of stripe ? Is that what is happening? Looks horrid.

Otherwise, three plain white stripes down the front of a red kit with black trim is pretty much what you'd expect/want from a ' traditional ' Saints kit. No?

Hummel's striped Kilmarnock kit for next season. This would of been lovely, striped back too!

Yeah, it does have a Sunderland-y feel. Sunderland are back with Hummel this year and they've immediately made them a kit which would have been great for Saints. 

Here's what might have been. 

Should have stayed with Hummel. 

[Saint86]

The home kit is atrocious. Reminds me of the old flybe exeter kit (which was better). Struggle to nail "lower league" better if we had tried.

Not sure Puma have ever made a decent kit. Such a shame we’ve gone with them. Really poor effort, and a shocking sponsor logo. Looks so cheap. 

How very underwhelming

Not us. Ours are absolutely horrific.

The club wanted to maximise commercial revenue i guess.... hopefully that didn't include shirt sales 🤣

They have a nicer sponsor logo but the actual kit is nothing worth writing a musical about.

I wonder if we’re the only fans who do this or if the Arsenal forum is full of people saying, “it looks like a Bristol City kit,” every summer.

[Paul Chuckle]

Just cracked opened a bottle of Kingfisher, dimmed the lights and going to put the opening 30 mins of the kit launch on and pretend I'm there mingling with Southamptons best fans and influencers.

Huddersfield Town and Brighton have really great designs for next season. I look at both shirts and think, these would look great in red & white. Instead we end up with what looks like a non-league shirt. 

[Patrick Bateman]

I hate stripes anyway, always look crap, but that's a whole level of new crap, definitely made worse by the toy town looking sponsor 🤮

wonder how well this will sell compared to last seasons?.....................maybe its a grower?

[saintnick]

Not bad but not great, the sponsor logo just spoils it and distracts from anything good. Meh
