Take it with a pinch of salt though, as Wednesday's was voted 2nd best in both The Championship and overall

Do keep up ................. so last week

 

[Erad]

I don't think anyone dislikes our kit, it's very nice, it's just not a home kit. Anyway let's not discuss it all over again...

[MobileBlade]

[SwissBlade]

It's a shit home kit for the blades

 

[William Henry Foulkes]

Love the kit but didn't we have this thread with this link last week.

And someone pointed out the number of fans may have had a bearing on the result as it was not decided by, say, the Nobel Prize for Football Kits jury.

Interested to hear why you think that?

It would be interesting to hear why he wouldn't think that.

Why discuss a shirt that's not ours anyway?

 

[Tezza1889]

Went to get the away kit for the lad cause I didn't like the home kit, and he chose the home one, anyway it's a brilliant shirt looks great and we have shifted a few too by the look of it...

One gripe, the badge, I know what it is and why it's there but just consider this, the home shirt could be a way of shuffling off the present badge and easing in a new design, you know how all big companies sometimes re brand by changing logos , it happens a lot when new owners take over, I know it may sound daft to some, but not one eyelid has been raised up to now by anybody, might be just me, but it wouldn't surprise me if adidas had a few new badge designs for the blades sat on a laptop....

 

[Blade58]

Wouldn't wear that shirt/kit:

It was the last kit on Earth
If you paid me
If I was blind
If you were blind
For a dare
All of the above, or any permutation

Has Jimmymuir infiltrated this board now?

(That's a joke especially for any Bladesmadders on here)

 

[Grecian2000]

Surely the "Kit Shit" Forum is long overdue.

Foxy, forget the sending info from games and stuff like that, get yer finger out man

 

[derryblade]

Looks like a white shirt, not fussed with pin stripe.

 

[Tyler Durden]

It's a wonderful shirt and it's a nod to our history, which funnily enough goes back a fairly long way. If the shorts were black it'd be one of our finest kits ever.

It shits all over any Macron or Lecoqsportif tosswank with blocks of all red on the backs of the shirts.

 

[FatLadFromSheffield]

I like the shirt. Strong dislike for the shorts being red though

 

[SwissBlade]

Interested to hear why you think that?

Because it's not red and white. We play in red and white, not white

 

[blade too long]

Because it's not red and white. We play in red and white, not white

you miss the point
its a homage to our first league kit white with red pinstripes , so it has red , but was for a very very special anniversary
its the first kit we designed
the first kits white with black / serge blue shorts were just ex military gear
this was our foundling fathers first marketing venture our first identifiable own kit
its surely doesnt hurt to mark this

club shop sold thousands in 1892

 

[bladesmanluke]

Because it's not red and white. We play in red and white, not white

Yes it is red and white? It's a homage to our original kits. I don't see why it's an issue, it's an anniversary shirt and a very nice one at that.

 

[blade too long]

not red ?
its definitely not blue

 

[SwissBlade]

Great. It's not red and white though, it's white with a splash of red.

Keep it for a third or an away kit, but not home

You miss my point, we play in red and white not in a 'homage'....

 

[blade too long]

we play in red and white .

sure do

Would just like to disagree with the entirety of that post.

How can it be a nod to our history when 98% of it was played in a completely different shirt.

And you think if the shorts were different the shirt would have been one of the finest ever? A shirt that isn't even our traditional colours? That's baffling to me.

It is a home kit though... Our first red and white home kit. This club is older than your ideals
