City’s New Kits

[jamielowndes]

Did anyone get to the bottom of why the blackout away kit is different in the 'authentic' £130 version and the replica version, with the collar stripe missing? Other than it being a massive con?

They've been doing this since the 22/23 kits. There are differences of varying subtlety across all kits.

In the treble year, the red and black diagonals sat underneath the shirt numbers onfield. Replicas had a plain back.

Don't really get it tbh, especially considering how the authentic shirts aren't really wearable on a regular basis.

Heads should roll, whoever agreed to that should be locked in a secure unit and never see the light of day again, horrendous kit.

They should be made to wear it in public for 115 days consecutively.

Think it's just the case of if they are identical less people would buy the player versions. What would be the point?

I reckon that’s better than this grey and green one.

So you think the icecream was better. Ok. Cant discuss ‘taste’.

In a way its a pity they didn’t choose the awaykit at the WC tournament as a third kit.

Definitely, would happily see that make another appearance.

Horrendous, as we all knew already

Puma are absolutely shite, there's no way any player walked into that kit launch and was excited to put that on

 

[edgecroft]

I like it!

 

[warpig]

Kind of agree. It's just the design and the colour that's an issue....

Apart from that it’s ok?

I think that’s for next season’s third kit (2026-27).

The finalists were these:

Unless I’ve missed it, I don’t think the winner has been announced yet.

My personal favourites are these two:

Not perfect, I’d rather the sky+navy sash be diagonal from shoulder to hip, and I’d rather the white pinstripes on the purple kit were uniform in distance… but still the best of the bunch, for me.

Those 2 are class.

It's not far off perfect - all they need to do is:

1. Start again
2. Do everything different.

Love Puma they must read this forum then produce a kit for shits n giggles

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

Just for kids to choose in FIFA/FC - will serve its purpose. Ugly as fuck though, reminds me of the silver we had when we had Wanchope

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

So bad it's good lol hopefully we win 6 nil every time we wear it

That 3rd kit is a crime against humanity and everyone involved in making it should be put on trial at the Hague immediately

Whatever you think of the third kit, don’t comment, it just gived the Daily Fail another excuse to slag us off

The Daily M*il is a far right shit stirring roll of toilet paper for the homeless.

I'd wear their criticism as a badge of honour.

The gold 'ol Beeb - highlighting £152 - have a HYS open for this.....

Manchester City: Club's new third kit inspired by Manchester weather

Manchester City's jersey features a raindrop graphic over a grey background, taking inspiration from the city's wet weather.

fucking hell.

 

[Bluesince1979]

Excellent - So 26/7 will be Sky blue shirt/Shorts with white socks.

Away will be a variation on either white/maroon/red/black

Third will be orange and peach with with some other neon colours made to look like a bad LSD trip at an illegal rave.

And a one off champions league kit tribute to Curly and Raquel off Corrie.

If puma are reading this. I'm cheaper than the people you already pay 6 figure sums a year to snort the entire cocaine mountain of Bolivia before they enter a prompt on chat gpt to create our new kits.

DM me if you wish.

Think thats basically it.

Trouble is, if you get the usual FOC’s to design each seasons shirts … they would be exactly the same every single year.

Literally.
