City’s New Kits

Yep, hated it. The Kappa design wasn’t the issue,mit was the shade of blue. Our colour is pale/light blue (Sky Blue)

I agree with you on the shade of blue but i liked that shirt, and i still have it now. Bit tight on me nowadays though; )

I remember the bullpooh they said about the blue getting lighter and lighter, like the way we played. It did feel like a system reboot when sky blue returned in 2003. It was sorely missed.

Yes, this is the correct ‘City’ Blue…

For most of our history the colour was never actually pale blue but it became a washed out pale blue in the 80’s and early-mid 90’s.

We have fucked about with our colours too much for my liking tbh, all clubs should have a Traditional identity.

We are state owned and the kit should be the colours of the UAE flag.*

Really? Hadn't noticed. Definitely a defining generation shading, design and trims. Last season's home kits are equally dynamic.

Yeah we’ve pissed about with the shade over the years, however If you check back historically our colours were either listed as Pale Blue or Light Blue. Only in the 1950’s did it start to be referred to as Sky blue. If you can get hold of any old programmes you may see this. Personally I prefer the 1968-1970 shade

from Historical kits…

After the Second World War, City's colours were described as "light blue" and, towards the end of the decade, "sky blue." There is no evidence to suggest that the shade of their shirts changed, however, merely that these terms were thought to be more modern.

Coffee? Have they let Bernardo do the design this year?
