If memory serves, I recall in years past Adidas unveiling their new kits at the tail end of the current season. Chelsea, for sure, has done this fairly regularly. I've also noticed a notable increase in the number of emails from United advertising discounts on this season's kits (I realize the season is nearly over, but they seem more numerous than normal). Perhaps there will be an unveiling sooner rather than later.
Manchester United kits 2016/17
- Thread starter bucky
- Start date
I quite like all three. Certainly better than some of the rubbish Nike gave us towards the end of their sponsorship.
My word, the home kit is an abomination. Keep the home one simple ffs
All three are dreadful - the home two-tone effect just doesn't look like a Utd home shirt; the away jersey material/texture makes it look like some kids pyjamas; and the 3rd would be fine if it didn't have those stupid cells all over the shoulders. Can't believe I actually miss Nike.
Terrible picture, but this is supposed to the full home kit:
I actually quite love that.
The home and away shirt for this season are being given away at manutd.com now, £19.45.
Just ordered the beautiful away shirt with Shaw on the back, in M. I just hope I don't have to go on a serious diet.

The new kits are being designed to give the impression that players are going forward into the opponents half, when they are in fact going sideways or backwards. Amazing new Adidas technology for this. They're printing the numbers on the front.
Wish we could have something classy 
Ugly. Really ugly. Just as I was beginning to think our average shirt designs are a thing of the past with Nike, Adidas does this.Terrible picture, but this is supposed to the full home kit:
Think the main thing surprising me about the Adidas kits thus far is that red seems to have become the shorts trim colour, whereas Nike nearly always used black. Quite a subtle change but I do think black stripes on the shorts would look better when wearing black socks.

Would be great if we knew someone else was wearing #10
Its difficult to be original with our home strip but I like the little details that are incorporated to change it up a bit. Blue away kits frustrate me enough as it is let alone it having red trim, it looks awful. White or silver are the only acceptable trim colours for a blue kit. I hate the one colour badge too, we need to have a red and yellow badge on their no matter what.
I miss having a proper black away kit..

sounds like we'll be wearing the new away kit for the fa cup final, which is mega lame.
i can just about handle changing kits every year, but this bollocks of not even being able to wear the same kit throughout one bloody season is mental.

fecking ridiculous, I completely agree.
It's almost retro to complain about now, but it's scandalous even having a new kit each year. Will never not be anything more than contemptible marketing.
exactly right.
Did Chelsea use to raise titles in next seasons kit? I can't remember?! I'm sure Newcastle always use to finish off the season in there new kit.
I believe it's been rumored that we'll use our new kit in the final match.
I can remember Chelsea wearing a new kit in one of the FA cup finals in the last few years. So they have definitely did it.
And the CL final against us...
Any one got a link to this rumour?
I just really dislike the Chevrolet logo and motif...so dam ugly, spoils any design.
Jesus lets not start that shit this year again. We just have to live with and learn to ignore it.
Home and away kits will be as they are in here... That lovely 3rd kit will be a fake and instead we will get a purple and green monstrosity.
I hope not, that third kit is beautiful. Best kit we've had in years imo.
really like that rumoured white kit... would be happy if that was our away kit.
Weren't we one of the last ones to truly adopt that approach ? I know that we had a one season shirt which was meant to be commemorative for 06/07 but then had one from 2007-2009 (which everyone now loves but fecking hated at the time) then another one year commemorative strip for the 09/10 (that was the excuse for the chevron at least) but hadn't most teams adopted the approach of changing out every season by then ? Chelsea had certainly started changing before the season was out by that point.
That looks a training kit to me
Training kit has Aon as the sponsor. That's defo our kit, and it's stunning.
Its similar to the Madrid away kit from last season and it looks quite good.
More like a pyjama top than a training shirt.
Is that cnuting orange again?
It's been mentioned at least a thousand times in the last 2 years, but they really need to make the Chevy logo match the trim on the two-tone away kits.
They won't because blah blah blah loads of money, but it looks dumb when they've made the United crest a single colour, with the Adidas gubbins to match, but not the Chevy stuff.
Full colour on the home shirt, colour matched outline on the away kits. It would look great.

Maybe the blue pattern is a throwback to this

I don't remember when they used to put payers names on the front
Maybe the blue pattern is a throwback to this
Next season it'll be 50 years since our first European Cup win, so it's more likely a throwback to the royal blue shirt we were were wearing in the final against Benfica.
And if that kit is legit, Adidas did a good job too except for one detail. The crest on the left should be in its original colours, then it would be an instant buy for me. Anyway, even as it is, it's way better than that monstrosity of a blue shirt we had back in 1992-93.
I don't mind the Chevrolet logo as I've gotten used to the logo on red and white, but it stands out way too much on this blue kit. If they put only a red outline of the logo, that kit would be beautiful imo.
The blue kit looks terrible, like a cheap pyjama or T-shirt. Absolutely terrible look.
