I spotted that pic, but do you remember how we had green or black shorts for that away kit, I'm assuming we'd need a different colour other than black when playing away to Derby etc? It was the same last season when we used yellow shorts instead of the royal blue ones.

Individual letters could be troublesome too. You'd end up being sponsored by
MER CAN
PRESS

Walk into the shop wearing the teamwear version of the third kit, ask the club to print Bruno's name and number on the back of it and buy one of those badges at the same time. I dare you.

Yes it often happens, I guess they'll cross that bridge when they come to it.

Even better, tell them the badge and sponsor fell off in the wash and you'd like them replaced free of charge.

No way am I buying any of those monstrosities. Yuck, yuck, thrice yuck.

I like it on the whole, but not the solid blue sleeves on the home shirt, yuk - I wonder what the long sleeve will look like (if such a thing exists anymore in these days of "underskins")?

Thank **** I don't wear football shirts; 50 odd quid?

And how anyone can like the Luton kit is beyond me.

I said it before, and I'll say it again. Look at these beauties:

Thats my new gym shorts sorted.

They are Nike Laser II shorts for the record M'lud.

Yes, yes and yes!

I'll get working on it straightaway (I'm sure the boss wont mind...)

On one hand I'd like to see Nike banned from supplying kit to any UK club until they sort out their worker welfare issues, I doubt that will happen as the whole East Asia sweatshop culture suits us in the west. But if people could empower themselves to make their own decisions, based on what is right, rather than what is perceived to be cool, then that would make Nike et al change their practices.

We've been down this road before. I pointed out to you that there are plenty of reports of Nike driving improved working welfare, but I get that it doesn't suit the "bash the big corporate" agenda of many (I'm not saying you) to concede such points. Are Nike any better or worse than Adidas or Puma? I don't actually know and I suspect unless you've been out to the Indian subcontinent, you don't really either. But Nike do have the scale and power to make improvements like no-one else and it seems they are rising to that challenge.

I am surprise that I don't like the look of it, as usually I think Nike shirts look very good.

That's fine though. Every new kit launch there has ever been has been met by "I love it"s, "I hate it"s and plenty of people who sit in the middle - we all have different tastes. This thread illustrates that quite nicely.

What you have to see though, is people will have read you grumbling about this shirt for months now, and as such it's hard to believe you've approached it with a completely open mind.

Wahhay,thanks. I might buy a job lot and set up a stool outside falmer station, do you think the club would mind?......I reckon i could knock out the orange ones for £30 quid a pop.

 

[sparkie]

I reckon the red and black kit is fantastic.

 

[Hiney]

I love it

 

[Billy the Fish]

The goalkeeper shirt has individual letters instead of a panel and it looks LUSH.

It would take ages to do that on every single shirt. There probably weren't enough Filipino children to get it done for the start of the season!

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

Quite like the home and orange kit, not such a big fan of the away one though.
