Call me an old fashioned miserable bastard, I just don't get all this kit launch video bollocks .And then grown geezers actually having a debate and moaning about it ....
It's a Football shirt , it's what's inside it that matters 🤔

Loads of clubs do this kind of thing for the third kit. Man U did similar last year and think Arsenal have this year.

Fantastic kit. Probably never get used, like.

Adidas have started doing it this season on away/third kits using old crests. Man Utd and Arsenal have even got the Trefoil Adidas Logo

Rather than making decent modern stylish kits, it seems that manufacturers are trying to take retro kits and make an iconic kit… it so rarely seems to work.

Errea have made some nice looking kits like that maroon 3rd kit they did (or it might’ve been keepers kit). The quality and finish has been what’s let Errea down.

I’ve never really been against Errea, I bought the first one they did, but that’s it. However with Adidas I bought several, as well as the pink and Blue/ purple aways. Polos, shorts. They had a good range

We need to get away from the obsession with manufacturers using templates, they seem to work.

Hopefully last season with Errea after these shockers

Behold the emblem of valor and heritage, a timeless crest resplendent in its martial grandeur: two swords, crossed in perfect symmetry, forging an indomitable testament to chivalric tradition. These gleaming blades, wrought from the finest steel, their edges honed to perfection, converge at their hilts, adorned with intricate engravings that echo tales of legendary battles and noble quests. Encased in an aura of eternal glory, the swords are framed by a laurel wreath, symbolizing victory and honor. This classic insignia, a paragon of heraldic artistry, commands reverence, evoking the valor of knights and the noble ideals of a bygone era. In its presence, one is transported to a realm where honor reigns supreme, and the spirit of the warrior endures eternally.

Fred Perry collar and sleeve cuffs
 
So long as they always use the proper badge on the home kit, I'm absolutely fine with a little bit of experimentation, or retro homage on the 3rd, and often least used strip.

It's a lovely shirt. Please keep it sponsorless. 🤞🏻

That shouldn’t be an excuse to make a really shit kit

Makes me laugh how annoyed people get about the kits. These days, if you don't like a kit, there's 2 more (plus GK tops and training tops) to choose from. If you don't like any of them, there's always next year! We should be able to experiment with different colours, accents, stripes width/directions etc. without people losing their minds about it.

Then there's always the people who think we should wear a kit identical to the 1960s version and never change. Times moved on lads, it's never going to happen.
 
It’s well known I’m a collar nerd on here now so allow me to go in to some detail about the third shirt…

I saw - and liked - this collar from Errea a few weeks ago. Mentioned it should have been used on the away shirt in teal/jade/whatever. (https://www.s24su.com/forum/threads/is-it-time-for-a-new-kit-thread.99556/post-5232332)
Would also improve the home shirt imo.

KV Kortrijk - whoever they are - have the same collar (template…) but it’s done in the same fabric as used to make the shirt. Making it look cheap and very flimsy. But fair fucks to Errea or whoever at United made sure it was done in the proper stretchy knit rib cuff stuff. Because it makes the shirt look ten times better and worth the money.

I think that’s Bronte Jones from Gladiators isn’t it?

Imagine being up against her on the show and she got her legs around you to bring you down from those 'dangly things'!
It'd be a case "oh no...Bronte........you've got me"!

First thing I noticed about the collar is that it's not level! On the shirt that the big bald bloke has on anyway
