Yeah, I agree with this. I collect the "special" shirts (Cup finals etc) but I wouldn't wear a football shirt just out walking on the street. However, I certainly don't mind anyone doing it.

Go to church wearing a United shirt sometimes.
I disagree with that, I am getting up there in age but still like the jerseys and have a fair collection I wear when I can.
Looks a bit germanish for some reason to me
A United shirt is appropriate attire for weddings, bah mitzvas, business meetings, dates.
I bet you voted leave
I actually like it. Of course I drive a Chevy. What would you prefer? "Fly Emirates" like every 3rd or 4th Club around the world? "Preparation-H"....."Joe's Crab Shack"?

It just looks so garish and tacky. It is a tough logo to wear proudly, that is for sure.
I dont recall have any issues with previous sponsors....Sharp, Vodafone, AIG and AON were all good with me.
sort of agree. But hey..if you want to get into the US market..the Chevy is a good start.
Not for me. I'm wearing one right now....proudly.
BTW-I have at LEAST one or more of the others you describe hanging in my closet as well. I wear them too...proudly. It's all about the colors and that beautiful badge to me.
Virgin would make an awesome club sponsor. Imagine selling the shirt with the following "Virgin, every time you put on your United shirt it's like it's being touched for the very first time"
I buy a jersey most years. the always have "ChaddyP" on the back of it. in 29 with a wife and a child. I sometimes wear the shirt on Sundays to the mall, or to the gym or to a sports bar if a bunch of us are watch a game or something. I really don't see why there are age limits to wearing a shirt of the team you love and support.
I have loads, the wife and kids get me one every birthday, always long sleeved and I only wear mine when watching United, I don't have many from my late teens or early twenties because I was too wasted to give a shit.
Maybe the Chevy logo shouldnt have the gold in it. Its just so tacky.
Why couldnt Ford sponsor us
I dont have any from my earlier life because I couldn't afford one, not to mention to get a (original) United shirt in the 3rd world was close to impossible unless you visited England or somewhere in Europe.

Why couldnt Ford sponsor us
Because it is the actual Chevy logo. It matches the colors in the badge. And Ford? Yech...then I would be the one complaining.
It's a 'Mericun thing I guess.Oi I'm well hard. I'm a Jack-the-lad
Had a look at the away shirt for the first time in a shop today. It's ok but it looked & felt like a t-shirt, quite different to what I'm used to. Pretty happy with today's end of season purchase of the 2015/16 home shirt, one white & one blue United training shirts, white United adidas jacket all for $150. At the start of the 2015/16 season it would have cost me $290. Love a bargain!
It doesn't matter what age you are, wear your United gear proud. I couldn't give a rats what others think as at the ripe old age of 42yo I wear mine often.

New training gear looks really nice.
I just got my 6 month old niece last seasons home kit for less than $30. She looks like a mini Rooney without the hairpiece
Shocked Ed hasn't merchandised this yet, would be a top selling item.
The sleeves reminds me of those colour blind test patterns.
Actually starting to really like the blue shirt. Shame it doesn't have the badge in full cours.
Anyone know why the stripes are only on top of the shoulders and not down the arms? Design choice?

Adidas changed the stripes from the shoulders to down under the arms and down the sides. All sides wearing Adidas kits will sport them like that in 2016/2017 from what I've seen.
The blue one has stripes on the shoulders still, rather than underneath, but they don't go down the arm.
Actually looks really nice.
The side stripes still annoy me.
I actually think that's lovely. Love how the stripes down the side connect with the shorts stripes.
I'm just annoyed at the stripes being at the side, hopefully this is just this seasons design for whole of adidas
When is the new home shirt released?
I really want to get an Ibrahimovic shirt while he's with us, but I hate these new kits.
The blue one actually looks OK in the flesh.
Those love handles.Actually looks really nice.
They might bug me if they aren't lined up properly
Ah, the annual 'we hate the new kit' thread. Right on time lads.
looks like one of those slim fitting shirts
They dont work with fattys like me

Great kit imo and those stripes finally something original and people are moaning I don't get it..

The adidas stripes down the sides? All new adidas jerseys have those - see Germany et al at the Euros.
