Without the shield it would be gorgeous. Ah well..
I agree. The shield is shit.

But then it just reinforces that our badge is shit. If we had a round badge it wouldn't need a shield around it and I would be a great shirt with a disc seen on rather than a silly shield around a daft chicken sticking it's tongue out, three stupid stars and some stupid Latin that doesn't mean what we think that is all too busy meaning Nike want it in a shield.

With this that would be a disc and we would see any sort of shield.

Now that badge is a thing of beauty, always loved it, no idea why we fuck around with Germanic eagles and pointless stars.
Really its been explained a trillion times why it went and will never come back

Fair enough, sort of remember reading threads on here about it but I've put my head in the sand so to speak, just glad we can still get it on the retro year shirts in cotton.
 
I can't for the life of me understand why they went for the badge style crest.It actually makes the shirt look like it's a fake.

If only they had stuck with the normal badge it would have been a good job.The fit looks far better than the early pics that were doing the rounds on here.

Some of the other gear on the os looks really good.

Joe Hart said that he hopes it won't stick as he was sweating. Well I would imagine they are modeling replica versions. Nike player shirts usually have lots of holes in the sides and are thinner than the replicas and have an ironed on badge rather than embroidered, so whether the player shirts are going to be different we'll have to wait and see. Interestingly, on the OS description it does mention dri fit and that it has lots of little holes so maybe they will be the same like the Umbro ones were.

I thought he said "I hope it doesn't stink"!

Using the sheild enables the badge to be sewn on to make the badge integral means embroidering each shirt this measn more cost

Of course it's cost cutting on Nikes behalf but if we are expected to be paying the sum of £55 for a shirt its the least we could expect.It's my only drawback and the reason i won't be purchasing the kit, for Nikes first effort after the quality we are used to from Umbro it's a major let down.
 
I love the whole kit!

The shield has been done well, not a different colour to the shirt to draw attantion to it, though even on the shorts I think it works well.

All the haters won't even notice it come next season when they will find something else to moan about.
