People love to whinge. Nike have churned out a succession of perfectly decent, if uninspiring, blue and white striped shirts. The latest is actually pretty good.
Only once have they strayed from 'safe' and it was almost universally HATED (the Frankenstein one).
I've no idea what people actually (think they) want.

Not sure what you can do with blue and white stripes.
This years kit though is fantastic.
A lot more detail and design when you actually see it in the Club Shop.
Shirt Sales increase year on year so somethings right about them and what they are providing.
FixedI would've preferred a switch to adidas but I can see the appeal of Nike for the uncool kids
wtf is a "technical partnership"?
I guess for one of the biggest clothing manufactures on the planet to have access to a designer who can design a half-decent new shirt every couple of years? Half of NSC seem to be able to do it with the mock-ups we regularly see, but it seems to be beyond a company who specialise in it and generate $9 billion a year.
It really doesn’t seem that much to expect.
My guess is that the majority of ‘older’ fans would like more of a classic kit, predominantly blue, with stripes on the back. .
Much like this season's one then? (bar the striped back).
Or did they actually want it made in Airtex?
I met a guy on holiday a couple years back who reckoned he was pretty high up in Nike. I bought up their crap kit designs after quite a few drinks, as you do. He kind of laughed, then told me that Nike have no interest in ‘soccer’ kits, and only get involved to stop rival sports firms from cornering the market! I have no idea if he was just full of shit and talking bollocks or not, but it would explain the dire strips they design!
