If it's sales then simplifying them and alway being similar can't be good. I would guess Puma and before them Nike know whats good for sales.

Many fans will buy shirts every year because it's the latest shirt but making them appealable to most would help sales.

Would it though, My son bought the away last year and the anniversary shirt. If the home this year was as it is without the mosaic he said he wouldn’t be buying it as its too much like the 125 shirt and he’d just get the away again. The mosaic means he’ll buy the home, though not sure if he meant as well as the away.
Myself don’t buy them but like the mosaic design and story behind it a lot.

He didn't suggest buying the third kit?
 
If that was another team's kit you'd all be saying how crap it is.

Puma did a bad job this year.

There wouldnt be another team....the mosaics down to City...woosh straight over the top

Like the concept of the design, it would look better long sleeved with the pattern running straight tbru it...the look is ruined for me with a black etihad....white etihad long sleeved would have been a cool look

I've never seen one before - no one has - but I'm guessing it's a white hole.

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. A black holesucks time and matter out of the Universe; a white hole returns it.

Going back through the modelling shots as well you can see they are all different too, as the earlier poster mentioned. That's actually a really nice touch.
 
Patterns are in this year, most teams I've seen are using some form of pattern. Puma have gone with what they could rationalise/sell to the fan.

It is not for me, but in a season when so many are doing kits with some form of noise on them, it is no worse than any old random effect pattern.
 
I wonder if it's somehow randomized or if there's just a fixed number of templates. I know nothing about textile manufacturing but I would imagine it's most likely the latter.

It’s where the ‘repeat’ of the design falls. Different sizes will have different parts of the print repeat. It depends upon the cutters ‘lay plan’ (pattern sheet)
