23/24 season kit thread

Some care, some don't. It's all subjective and often divisive.

For me, certain key parameters have to be adhered to for a striped Sheff United shirt. There is a minimum and maximum acceptable stripe width, and the centre stripe is ALWAYS RED.

As mention previously, thin stripes at a distance make the shirt appear pink, and thin striped shirt often look cheap. I'm not a fan. Overly thick stripes end up giving the impression that the shirt isn't striped, but just 3 blocks of colour.

Using official Errea templates, a few of my artistic impressions thrown into the ring. Always only 3 red stripes visible, a less vibrant red (Adidas got it spot on. Last season was too bright), a Bramall Lane watermark on some designs.

Don't like 3 and 6. Too "Southamptony"

Is that the new Dead Kennedy's album?? (Only people of a certain age and music taste will get the reference!!)

About to say the same. Top in middle is pretty much bang on

2 and 4

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Simple as.

Don't get why anyone cares whether someone else likes it or doesn't like it.

 

[Balti Pie]

We've had the black pinstripes for a couple of years now, so we're due for plain red and white stripes this season.
That's how it works, right?

All are quite nice, but 4 would be the best. Just being picky but I'd match the cuffs to the collar. Maybe add the pinstripes from 3. Just feels like it adds that little extra...

Great, now I've got a stiffy.

If we keep Randox as sponsor or even if we announce someone else, just give it some homage to the 90's Laver sponsor. Laces would be a class touch, but I doubt we'd get that. The pinstripes for me just add some nice detail for me, I know people may not want them. Also, wouldn't be opposed to solid black sleeves like that adidas top

As nice of an idea as that is, I doubt many companies would let us mess with the branding they probably paid millions for.

I like 1,2 and 4.

Our new kit wont be anything as good as this though. We only do crap.

 

[Sid1978]

Weeeeerz kit?

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Another summer, another unveiling new signings in training tops draped in United flags, because the kit isn't ready

Except last seasons kit was better than all those.

Been browsing in club shop earlier collecting some tickets.

The new style badges are not without error. They look like they've been cut manually not electronically.

1st two items i saw had issues. Amazing quality as always

One - border thins as it goes around.


Two - creased as it was glued on

Also if its anything like the black & gold training jacket I picked up last season, they seem to be confused where 12 o'clock is.

Tbh my expectations regarding any kit/training suppliers standards are low. I always triple check the shirt I'm going to buy for stitching faux pas, whether it be adidas or macron.

Errea has been particularly poor though, despite imo looking good. I was hoping things would improve this season after the club publicly addressing the quality. Hopefully, you just came across a few dodgy ones.

I feel sorry for the staff working in the stores though, as they will be the ones to get the grief!

They're all gorgeous but no way can bloody ERREA be putting sleeve strips and badges on their kits. Top right is my favourite. bottom right is the best collar

Errea - forged in utter fucking dogshit.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Their quality control processes have been utterly fucking abysmal.

Their designs are fairly decent.
Training kits look basic and naff, but last year's home, third and GK kits were class, IMO in terms of design, dire in terms of execution. Didn't buy them due to the quality.

The craftsmanship is as poor as we've had. The materials are as cheap as we've had. The prices are still at a premium.

Errea have been a disaster so far, IMO. In terms of quality of materials, timeliness of kit releases, consistency if product/errors, and then price bracket in light of all of the above.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Happy Kit flounce eve, everybody!

I can live with just about anything as long as it’s red and white and has stripes on the back.

We can wear cock socks or crotchless pants for all I care, as long as our Illy is lining up for the Blades with a new 5 year deal in his pocket.
