Next seasons kit

The Sunderland shirt is definitely on the right track. Amazes me every year that striped shirts are causing such problems for designers when it was resolved 40 years ago.

Do it striped. Make players shirts with blocks.

I liked the white panel on the back from the Bassett era.

I think it will be more down to a manufacturer not wanting to sublimate [print] stripes on the back due to it cutting into their profit margin. A striped back probably adds 4 quid a shirt to a plain back one. Even more using the increasingly popular digital printing. That's a fair chunk on circa 25k shirts.
