Away kit is crap, looks dated.

Not even close to being as good as any of Umbro’s away shirt designs.
 
I'm from Norway, and while I didn't expect it, Norwegian retailers have actually received the first batch of kits already. They weren't displayed in the store I visited, as they were still in boxes, but the clerk was kind enough to go and find one.

At that point I was quite excited to see the kit in person, but I was unfortunately left disappointed. The kit looks okay in pictures, but I thought it looked even worse in person. The texture was just so 'flat', for lack of a better word. The navy blue was the same material as the sky blue, and it just looked cheap. The shield didn't help either. God, I miss the Umbro kits from 09/10 and 10/11. Left without buying it.

Oh, and the price in Norway? 90 pounds. And that doesn't even include printing or badges.

Hope the third kit will be much better. If it is, I might buy it the next time I'm going to Manchester.

Isn't there any leaked pics, of our third kit doing the rounds? Someone on here said they'd seen it, and it's definitely a take on the wembley 99 kit. Now that's a shirt I'd buy, anyone know when it's likely to be released?

I'd heard it was lime yellow but not seen a thing!

Going off past seasons the 3rd kit doubles up as the euro away so would expect it to be realised in time for the first chimps league games
 
Maybe our third kit is the home kit with white shorts?

Not that ugly red crap banded around.

We need to have our own identity kits to avoid copying/pasting designs from other clubs. The same goes for other CFG clubs.

The City Football Group clubs have:
Melbourne City FC. White home kit with blue stripe. White/red striped away kit. Nike brand.

Yokohama F. Marinos. Dark blue home with white shorts. All red away shirt. Adidas brand.

New York City FC. Club's official color scheme of navy blue, sky blue and orange. Adidas brand.

Just proves that Nikes designers have no imagination or any idea about what looks good. If you had a poll between this fans effort against Nikes id guess 99% would pick this one.

Gonna be honest. You're wrong and it just goes to show that Nike's efforts are still better than the fans.

That red and black striped shirt is horrific.

The blue shirt looks 95% the same as this seasons home and that away looks 95% the same as last seasons, so not quite sure what your problem is.

That pic was a really bad example to prove your point.

Yep. 99.9999% of fan kits I see are awful. The one above is no exception.
 
Loving the away, but I generally don't buy collared kits. So I'll go for the Home or Alternate.

So, if someone loves it they should expound endlessly; if they hate it they should shut up?

Seems reasonable for a forum.
