New Kit for next year?

[mattbianco1]

Well it's not a million miles away from brentfords is it?

I was going to post totally opposite to this. I was going to say "I bet Brentford are fucked off that they got their "bespoke" design as opposed to a standard one like us"

Ours pisses all over it. Our collar is better. Our sleeves are better. We haven't got a shitty little square under the arms.

#12 for away and #14 for third, please

Superman on BladesMad has come up with some good ideas regarding a stand alone sponsor logo without a white box..

None of those home shirts are better than the real one.

Only 12 & 17 are any good as aways. I'm looking forward to Racing Green though

 

[Sensiblade]

I may be wrong but I think the sponsor will be slightly different on the shirt when they arrive on sale, if they left it so late then they may have had to rush the press conference launch shirts out so the logo may have had to be of a lower quality due to time.
Hopefully the for sale version will be a bit better quality and not have the white back panel.

Of course. I was just using it to highlight a much better use and design of the sponsors logo.

 

[vorpal blade]

I think sensiblade makes a good point, and I'm not sure that the shirts fitted the players who were modelling them but does anyone agree that the badge is too low down on the chest?

And I still think that adidas's insistence on 3 stripes down the arms means that they often get the sleeves wrong. The short sleeves don't look as if they lie correctly (because there are too many different bit of cloth all sewn together) and while I think that solid red short sleeves are OK, I think the long sleeve version may be a mess.

If there is an iron on black number on the back, then it'll be just as illegible as it always was. As a side issue, the league insists on its own trade-marked numerals which is a pity seeing as the adidas 3 striped font is a real classic.

This is what I am hoping for.....

Just tweeted and got a reply
Sensiblade @JamesDPhipps @adidasUK Oli... what you see is what you get. That's the shirt.

Looks the same, but might be better quality...... wishful thinking?

 

[Todwick Blade]

So here it is then!

SO what do we think?

Honestly its not that bad but could have been so much better

It's a 'lazy' design, a basic Condivo 14 template with 2 white stripes on the front and (thankfully) 2 on the back

Anyone who had a crack at designing their own using the miadidas website knows that this would have taken the Adidas design team 3 or 4 mouse clicks (about 30 seconds) to get to this design - just not good enough

How simple would it have been to just click white side panels (oh look 3 RED stripes!!!)
Click white bottom to the shelves (oh look striped arms!!!)
Black trim on cuff, collar, arms and shoulders (would have been mint!)

Logo and badge placement all wrong too and lets not talk about the sponsors logo (oh dear)




Look what they did with a bit of effort for the Hearts (away) shirt and you'll understand :/

They all look better than what we ended up with.

 

[Worksop_Blade]

Adidas have nothing to do with the sponsor logo application.

Somewhere between the factory and the shop floor is some numpty with a heat transfer machine, ruining football shirts. They use this cheap looking method as it's exactly that, cheap.

It started last season, with the sports games bollocks and reached a pinnacle of shitness when poor Scougs scored at Wembley with a sponsor logo nearly as big as him!

Has anybody noticed the WAWAW in the collar?!?

That's ridiculous. Have they got "This City Is Ours" etched into the fabric. Fucking muppets

Guess it's too much to ask or too bespoke to have the sponsor as part of the shirt like Wards was.

Bang on the money Todwick. While it's better than some of the previous years efforts, it's annoying as it could be so, so MUCH better with a few of the tweeks mentioned to more replicate the Hearts away style. And don't get me started about the big white iron-on box...

So in one breath you are pissed off that we have used a "basic template" then in the next breath are pissed off that it's not the same as the Hearts shirt that uses the same "basic template"?

I think he/she is referring to the sponsorship logo

Don't think so...

"How simple would it have been to just click white side panels (oh look 3 RED stripes!!!)

For what it's worth, i would've liked White on the side rather than red. I'm fine with the red sleeves and lack of black though

 

[Rodders]

It's ok Matt, don't cry.

 

[Greenwich Blade]

But if they design the perfect shirt this season, where does that leave us to go next season? I can't wait to see the shirt for the 2029/2030 season.

 

[mattbianco1]

I'm not the one crying and contradicting myself.

SUFC will have had a range of designs to choose from and no doubt had one identical to the hearts one in red. Whoever makes the decisions at SUFC decided to take this option.

This has nothing to do with Adidas being "lazy" as Todwick suggests.

Everybody stop it youre ruining shirt release day

Hi
No not 'pissed' off I actually like the shirt, just sad they didn't make the effort to make it just that little bit 'special'

As I said it's a lazy design based in the Condivo 14 template - shame

(And it's a He thanks Highbury)

UTB!!!

 

[shorehamview]

There's some proper picky buggers here. I bet Christmas is a right old laugh fest.

"But I wanted an Optimus Prime and a bmx, why have I got socks and aftershave?"

"Because you're 38 Geoff. Now stop moaning and open the Buck's Fizz, and if you make one more crappy Cheryl Baker joke you'll not get a cracker."

 

[sitwell]

Its a fucking football shirt ,not a Friday night fanny magnet. Get over yourselves.
