23/24 season kit thread

[Bladeinleeds]

Some details from the inside

 

[Blade58]

It’s about time the club spoke to some of the kit designers on here. Their designs are better every year.

I know it might make things a bit awkward, but I’ve always said that the fans should have some input into choosing the shirt design

 

[Addison]

After last years proper looking shirt with stripes on the sleeve it was to be expected our commercial and design team would revert back to plain sleeves. Thankfully they haven't gone back to plain backs which is the one saving grace of this seasons effort. Black socks again. White would have been better but we haven't had them for a few years.

The only unique aspect of the kit is the colour of the goalkeeper kit. Its red and white stripes front and back albeit very thick ones so it passes the test. Hopefully the design team will do better with the away kit and produce a yellow and red combination.

 

[Pedro's Winger]

Not bothered about kits but the Adidas one from a couple of years ago did stand out as the best for years.
White keeper kit might be apt. Surrender and all that.

 

[Katzenjammer]

Couldn't agree more!

For me it's all about:

Embodying the spirit of resilience and progress, the ‘Steel City, Rising’ campaign perfectly aligns Sheffield United's journey to the Premier League with the city's transformation. It celebrates the fusion of tradition and modernity, emphasising the club's determination to reach new heights while embracing Sheffield's evolving identity.

The shit-stains on my new 23/24 away shorts proudly showcase Sheffield's status as a down to earth northern working class city, not afraid to portray itself with unflinching honesty

The yellowy tinges on the diahorrea marks offer a subtle nod to the city's many wonderful Indian restaurants that make Sheffield a culinary hub and a bastion of modern Yorkshire culture.

It's oreyt to be fair, collar's a bit meh, but overall not bad at all, glad to see stripes on the back.

Now, weerz away kit thread?

 

[Katzenjammer]

Aaaaaand it's shite.

Actually, having allowed two hours to pass, I don't think it's that bad at all.

It doesn't compare well to last seasons, but last seasons was my favourite ever kit, so it was always going to be a high bar.

On balance, I think Errea have served us pretty well so far.

 

[Snowflake]

Set of moaning fuckers, it's a red and white kit with our badge on it, get a grip!

..ah but you haven’t taken into account the great write up, which identifies the complex nature of shirt design !!
To me it’s a shirt, but I am supposed to think otherwise !!

 

[Balboni]

Yellow and red away shirt, confirmed

 

[Snowflake]

I know it might make things a bit awkward, but I’ve always said that the fans should have some input into choosing the shirt design

How on earth would that help anyone ? Just look at the conflicting views on here.

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

Aye
All they have to do is read this thread - sorted

Book them all a meeting room for 2 hours and see what they come up with.

I would guess zero kit designs and somebody has been glasses with the Perrier water.

Beat me to it !

That’s a terrible image for the coming season

 

[Rochdaleblade]

Quite like it, apart from the collar. They could have got Reg Holdsworth or Vass Borbokis to model it though.

 

[mattbianco1]

I hated last seasons shirt when first released and only bought it when they announced a "limited amount" of long-sleeved versions in stock.... they weren't limited as a full truckload turned up about a week later.

Anyway, as the season went on, it grew on me.

This one though, I love it straight away. It's very clean. No faffing about.

Also - the GK top looks like it's got grey stripes.

 

[Sithblade]

Already up to order.

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Dare ya to get that on back of shirt

It doesn’t matter Everyone knows who I am now apparently

I’ve spoke to G4S and they will be providing me security at home games on the KOP

 

[Jon Bon II]

I thought the Prem had banned them?

They have. Be ungovernable!

Fantastic

Maybe clubs will rethink how much they charge for these shirts

I can guarantee you the tops of this website will be made in a factory near Identical to the one ours is made

Just bar the 10000% mark up for profit

Stripes too wide and that Borbokis shirt as well as the diamond remain two of the shirts that I didn’t buy.

It’s not horrific just not stripey enough for me.the Adidas one with the wider stripes was almost perfect

It looks very cheap from the pics, not that fitted for athletic footballers

 

[Superblades]

Absolutely, why bother with a professional when you can get an amateur to do it

Or they could take on their design ideas?

This is something the club really need to wise up to and get the kit released ASAP before half the fan base order from there instead. They surely know about DH gate! I bought a promotion shirt from there as couldn't get a real one but won't be buying this seasons kit from anywhere but the Blades shop.

 

[blAdes96]

Given the new in-store bucket hats range, I doubt we have another black kit. Unless maybe a goalkeeper kit (?) An updated version of this for an away kit, well hello...

 

[Greg.]

To get kit out but not sorting a sponsor is a tad embarrassing

Not that bothered. Rather a clean kit than a huge gambling sponsor or something like this!

I'm going to get one without the sponsor from DHgate for the kids and I'll buy the sponsored up one when it's out from the club.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

 

[sufc323]

I'm glad social media wasn't around in 2002, for me that kit is shite but fondly remembered for the season we had in it.

I remember seeing the kit and particularly the sponsor released in the Star as a 10 year old and thought what the fuck is that.

 

[NateDogg]

Shame we can't add the puking emoji.

How on earth would that help anyone ? Just look at the conflicting views on here.

'They should consult "the fans"' means 'They should consult me and the rest of you can fuck off.'
