City’s New Kits

Ordered 2 home shirts from dh gate,
$60 Aussie dollars about 28 quid
Since we’ve been with Puma, I have ordered my lad a shirt a season,and the quality is excellent, he has no clue they’re
snide, we’ve bought “real shirts” in the past- not anymore.
From personal experience it's a waste of time ordering the shirts until they are on sale as they will be wrong ,once they have a shirt to copy from is the time to buy
 
We’ve had worse home shirts but as an overall kit I genuinely think this is the worst we’ve ever had. It doesn’t even look like a City kit. What was even more disappointing was this was the first time the more traditional new badge was used and yet it was used on the least traditional home kit we’ve ever had.

i agree that was a stinker.

Its a toss up between this and the hideous 2006/07 kit.
I’ll give it to the 2006/07 kit though as we had the football to match ;)
 
Ordered at DH Gate. It’s really worth trying. And if it’s rubbish or it turns out to be different than what the original turnes out to be, I’ll get one from the City shop.
 
That is an all-time stone cold classic!

Love this shirt. Only thing that confuses me is that I have seen many official ones, both in match photos and for sale, where the umbro logo is navy blue. Kinda weird why some have white logos and some have blue. Anyone know why? Maybe they just used what they had in stock in those days for us because we were shit?

The run of kits from shirts, shorts n socks between 1987 -1993 were thest best ones we have had, home away and 3rd were all great, not just as a shirt but as full kits, none since these have been exactly perfect as these were.

I've ordered from China for many years, mainly for friends. Experience is that at this time of year they're mock ups and I've received some horror stories and some nice attempts.
Buy one at a time, if it's right go again, if not you ain't lumbered with 3 XL pyjamas that your kids can't get in. They don't always get things right. Chance you take.
 
In Turkey a few years back with the new season kit out. Kun on the back with number 16. He had just changed to 10.
