Griffo Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 There's the saints badge on the right arm too. The umbro logo and the crest seem a bit too far apart, but apart from that, it's nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Farmer Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 (edited) There's the saints badge on the right arm too. Thought the 'watermark' was a nice touch, but if you want rid.... And, unfortunately, I think it will be hard to find any design that doesn't resemble a previous incarnation SOB, we have had about 27 variations of the old red and white thus far lol!!! I actually like the quarters myself, but think its to retro too be wheeled out in 2009. It would make us stand out though!!!

DaveyR Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 Big fan of the quarters, as they say a leap away from the stripes for a while to signify a new beginning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 Thought the 'watermark' was a nice touch, but if you want rid.... The "watermark" is certainly a feature of the new 09/10 Umbro shirts so it's not out of place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 Ok, so the home shirt should be Red and White, but what is there that says the away kit has to be yellow and blue? Why not get really creative and design something completely new for a new era? New colours etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 (edited) I reckon the quarters would be great for this season. 'A Fresh Start' and all that... I'm assuming that if we get bought out the contract will remain in place and we'll have the same home kit - seeing as its all still full price. Now a yellow/blue quartered away kit, that would be vomitastic, especially with the contrasting flybe colours in the middle as they now insist on a plain background. I do like the one Dav posted, would look great if someone tidied it up a little, or maybe mocked up the West Ham style in those colours (stripe is a bit narrow though). Umbro kits this season are remarkably bland, the plain collars, thin panel of contrasting colour down each side of the shirts and shorts and the fussy multiple lines on the top of the socks are pretty weak characteristics, only the watermark stands out, and that's hardly original. We're not going to be getting the "classic" tailored look of the England kit like Man City have got either. Sunderland away kit (dull cack IMHO) : Hearts away (weeeeak) : Image has been withdrawn from the source at the request of Umbro... Blackburn (meh) : Edited 11 June, 2009 by The9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 (edited) looks nice,miles better then the rubbish one we have at the moment. Disagree, I think the current home kit is one of the best we've ever had. It's plain, except the red shoulder bits which aren't particularly intrusive. I think last season's Sunderland kit is miles better than their new one as well. I'm not sure I like the big plain panel at the top of the chest of some of the new Umbro kits - the Hearts one, for instance has shadow striping up to the chest but no pattern above that - the West Ham away seems to have a line of sorts at the top of the advert too. Still, at least it's not a pointless seam like THIS one : Though all in all I think that's an awesome retro-style kit.

The9 Posted 11 June, 2009 Share Posted 11 June, 2009 Dammit, knew I should have copied that Hearts kit before they "cease and desisted" it... well, it just looks like the Sunderland away one but in light blue and navy anyway. I forgot to mention how nice the Man City sponsor looks on the diagonal sash kit - not like Man City need the money from Etihad, but nice touch to have the sponsor logo small and under the badge rather than messing up the diagonal lines.

I like the home kit, none of them are current Umbro templates though, and the socks SUCK (the red on the home and 3rd kits don't match either and personally I'd cover the colour options with black socks on the third kit). The shorts look remarkably like the UEFA Cup ones, and the red on the yellow kit is absolutely vile. But I would buy the home one, and I already bought the 3rd one, kinda. Needless to say I like Gecko's ones better, especially the yellow stripe version, even if they do still have the Hammers crossed on the inside of the collar. I still want the wide stripe style like Birmingham had last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not due a new home kit unless administration/debts somehow voided the contract with Umbro, otherwise the situation was that at the start of last season "all kits were one season", but then when flybe announced they'd stay on as sponsor we kept the home kit for next season as well. Its plastered all over the club shop in West Quay that the home shirt is until the end of 2010, there's no doubt really, especially as they have loads of stock left.

I think that shade of yellow looks a bit dull and it looks very similar to the kit we got relegated without ever winning a game in. Third one looks too much like this years training kit for me. Personally I think a dark green with black trim kit would look awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeg Posted 13 June, 2009 Share Posted 13 June, 2009 The Farmer had a play.... the farmer done good - I would buy that without doubt - a quality shirt - like the Saints logo at the bottom and the "proper" badge great efforts by all but PLEASE do not put the Saints badge in a poxy shield - it should be on its own as per the current shirt!

The style of kit many would like to see IMO, but need to switch the colours round the other way. Not a fan of the round badge either, keep it as just the creast and will look much nicer.

Not a fan of the round badge either, keep it as just the creast and will look much nicer. I think that if the crest sits on a red surface then it needs to be within White shape to pronounce it further otherwise it becomes less significant.... By doing it that way it becomes the focus of the shirt. I'll switch the colours round the other way and see how it comes out... If the crest sits on White it probably won't need any backing. I have a feeling by changing the colours round the kit will be be White and red... Not red and White..... If that makes sense. I'll hve a go when I have a spare 10mins!
