New kit

[Grecian2000]

Well done Welters. Imagine those two having to turn up for a "kit launch"!

Can just imagine Heaven this morning:
Woody - Mornin Hodgy, fancy some kicking in?
Hodgy - Aye, give us 10 minutes. Just watching United doing a kit launch?
Woody - Yer what? Gi ower lad, never heard such shit.

Does any one know why this whole circus had to take place at the airport?

Quicker for Kev to bugger off back to Brussels?

 

[SRBlade]

Can we now start the thread for the 2017-8 kit?

 

[Treeton Blade]

Does any one know why this whole circus had to take place at the airport?

Because Alpharooms is a travel agent?

 

[BladeFisher]

I prefer the black socks. The black on the shoulders goes well with the shorts and socks.

Fuck knows why they couldn't have just unveiled it at Bramall Lane by the way. Might have got a few actually turning up. If you're going to make an event of it at least do it properly.

If it was at Donny Airport I wondered if they were going to take off and parachute into Bramall Lane.

Best. Kit. Ever.

Never mind the kit (agree it is spectacular), what about the Woodward wavy hair? Very Sweeney and West Street on a Friday night!

First complaint, why is the sponsor so big on the back? Where's the name going to go?

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

Shame about the Door Deals logo but the rest of it looks great.

 

[Tyler Durden]

I'm just waiting till they try red and white diagonal stripes. Then we can be known as the Zebra Blades. I mean taking it a stage further if it was red and white zig-zags

(a) It would be topical - WWI aka naval camouflage
(b) our opponents would get migraine
(c) we might get money from the heritage lottery fund because of (a)
(d) fans can be issued with special sunglasses boosting sponsorship further.
(e) no other team would have it!

Bradford beat you to it, this is their new kit!

Yeah it's nice, the whole thing is a bit over the top for a kit though. Whoever runs the Sheffield United twitter is earning his money.

 

[Whiston Blade]

It's in Club shop

Someone has finally been able to post a picture without twitter, thank you !

 

[Fjortoft's Aeroplane]

It is definitely the best Adidas one. the first one looked like a market knockoff and the last was an away kit. At least this one is of a professional standard.

It's heading towards Jason King territory. Classic

Monogramed initials on the side.

Oh no...

To be fair, that's actually quite nice for Bradford. Sure others will disagree though.

 

[Rodders]

Bloody lovely

 

[carthesis]

Still think there's too much black.

Looks like a designer got ideas above their station. Tried to be too clever and - to me at least - it's backfired a bit. The mock-up using the Argentina template would have been better. More classic, less fussy.

Is it meant to have gold and yellow in it or was it knocked up by some 8 year old designer or put together in one of India's poorer workhouses?

 

[vorpal blade]

why don't they put a big door deals advert on the back and use it as the patch behind the number?



design wise, this is as close to a no brainer as it gets.......

Good point. That logo ruins it a bit.

 

[Ron_Justice]

Full spread:

 

[Right Back]

Not a fan of sponsors on the back, but the shirt itself looks pretty good to me.

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

Good point. That logo ruins it a bit.

It didn't look as big as that on the ones the players were wearing today, though - that's probably just a mock-up image they threw together for the online shop before the shirts actually arrived. Will be interested to see any photos people who buy one from the Superstore take.

That looks better than I would have expected it to! If we did it though we'd look like a barbers shop!

 

[Tynemouth Blade]

I'd have 'Trotters Independent Traders' across the middle if they stumped up decent sponsorship dough.

Think as long as we're not sponsored by Sports Direct or ISIS we're pretty much good to go.

What about Wonga?

8/10

Very smart.

Bradford seem to radically change their kits every season. If we'd had some of their designs over the past few seasons there would be full-scale riots!

 

[TJB.]

What about Wonga?

Wonga I could just...about...yeah, yer right. Them n'all

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

Don't like it.
Too much red.
