New away kit revealed

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

that kit looked brilliant last night, but to me it looked all black.

Interesting...

Don't like the badge. Not a bad kit though, I love City in maroon (even if it's just the sleeves

I think we should have maroon band on the top of the home socks and have a full maroon 2nd or 3rd kit

Agreed. Favourite away shirts are the maroon ones.

I ordered the away kit with Sane 19 printed on it and it came today, but it has Sane 9 printed on the back. Anyone know how i can contact the club?

Got one for my lad. Printing is in white - is yours white or yellow? Team had yellow numbers last night.

Getting in touch - try twitter first @ManCityStore

Similarly to our home kit, it doesn't seem like a "City kit" but I do like it as a kit. The away doesn't bother me as much as those can be changed to something different all the time but I am very curious to see how this supposed orange third kit turns out.

Mentioned it in the post-match thread but the monochrome yellow crest looks awful - all detail is completely lost. It would have looked so much better as standard full colour. Really poor. Plus, again mentioned before, the red piping down the sides of the shirt is a different red/burgundy to the shoulder panelling and it clashes awfully.

This is your idea of a joke, plesae tell me it is.

No joke. Do you not agree?

Most importantly, it's not the jinx last years away kit was.

to be honest its not that bad besides that fucking red stripe up the sides? a random colour that has nothing to do with the rest of the kit? should have made that stripe maroon like the shirt to match it all together!

the red stripe isn't random.

 

[TheBlueDune]

That is nice.

Lieutenant Commander stripes?

 

[blue banks]

the red stripe isn't random.

So, what's the thinking behind it?

 

[Bozo]

Who else thinks Nike and City have scrapped the orange and purple third kit, and are frantically designing a new one we'll all love to boost sales?

My son has the same. At the store they said the team will wear the white lettering in the premier league and yellow else where; I'm awaiting us wearing it in the premier league to see if this is true.

well the sleeves are red and black stripes, so a red stripe down the side matches.

Screenshot here from the OS store. I wouldn't agree that the shoulders and side piping match.

agreed! plus my 8 year old has the kit with the yellow writing on the back but the red strip up the sides just look shit!

I think the Premier League uses standard white lettering for all the teams so it should be white numbering there, it's in the European games teams can go crazy and have their own colours/fonts. I think you have to get permission to use different lettering in the domestic cups like we did in the FA Cup final with the numbers with the Manchester coat of arms on.

Anyone else think the monochrome badge looks too yellow, the normal badge would of been best but if they really had too would it not be better with a black outer circle
