...although I MUCH prefer the material used by Nike, to that used by Errea (unless they've changed it since we used them)

I have never worn a Nike shirt, my youngest son has a few kits but I've never compaired the material.

I just think the last yellow Errea shirt looked far better than this one.

Are all 3 kits replaced after this year, or don't we know yet ?

I just don't get the dreadful green. Who chose that colour for the sleeves? Black would have been much better - or blue. Has no connection with the club and makes us look like Norwich. And we'll be wearing it at all the big away matches. It's a FAIL from me.

One other thought - presumably the driving force behind this is how many shirts the club will sell. In which case, why don't the club consult the fans? I don't think many would have voted for a yellow shirt with green sleeves.

Probably because the feedback will all be from middle aged blokes who's wardrobes are two thirds navy blue.

I'll bet any money that the under 21's will love this kit. It happened with the last home kit - universally slated on NSC, in reality the best selling Albion kit of all time.

I've always said this.
As the fans are the ones who buy it, why not have a compo to design the kit and put it to a vote.

Exactly. Or just present there alternative designs for people to vote for.

To be fair, Arsenal and Bournemouth haven't launched their away kits yet, maybe they'll go down the poncy rugby naming option.

they're a bit confused about the naming thing. The youtube promo vid avoids this "alternative" lark.

I think we all know what would happen if fans of certain other clubs found out there was a vote...

Not if we use our fan numbers somehow

The sleeves aren't green. They are black and yellow stripes. They just look green from a distance.

Same as the red-and-white Chewit wrapper/NOBO kit looked pink from a distance?
