Next seasons home shirt (allegedly)

[Dunne's own goal]

Heard from a good source this is it.

Based on the rumours I've heard I actually pray to God this is our new shirt instead of the shite with navy blue sleeves!!!!

And nike at least gave us this year's home kit. Which was real top class my opinion.

They are hit and miss it seams.

It was the right colours but the quality of the material is very poor. Bargain bin material for top quality prices = Nike football kits

I find it hard to get too worked up about next season's kit until it's actually revealed. Everything is just speculation until then.

I actually think the Nike kits have been decent so far, particularly last season's. Any change is always frowned upon, and most people would prefer the kit not to deviate much from the 2009/10 Umbro one, but presumably they have to make it slightly different every year, othewise no one would buy it.

My only realy gripe with Nike is that we seem to have be short changed financially on the deal, but then again none of us were privy to the negotiations or indeed what our true market value is.

Likewise.

I've stopped buying shirts football shirts anyway but the shirt design does interest me. As someone who started supporting the team in the 60's, it's the shirts from the Mercer Allison period that are the style I like best, I still hanker for maroon on the socks but dark blue has been the predominant trim colour for quite some time so I guess it is not really the break with tradition that I envisage it as.

I prefer the home kit to be a variation on sky blue shirts with white trim, white shorts and sky blue socks. The shirt is the most important element there and the one I would like them to dick around with the least but the marketing need to differentiate each season's product is going to win the day. Not many clubs sport a sky blue shirt so as long as the bulk of the body of the shirt is sky blue, no one is going to mistake which team it is. I reckon that dark blue sleeves, whilst a bit of a radical break from tradition, could look really good but then really needs to be followed by a very traditional shirt in 2017/18.

Does the kit have on official release date?

Assuming we introduce Pep on June 1st, and potentially Gundogen at the same time, We're going to need to release the shirt at the same time aren't we?

Probably thought he'd start on a Monday and not a Friday. I imagine Pep will be chomping at the bit and in with the cleaners on the 1st.
