Okay, it'll look decent in that case.
Manchester United Kits 2017/18
- Thread starter bonusroller
- Start date
I wish they'd treat the United shirt with respect and design it as a football shirt, rather than as a fashion item. The shirt actually makes sense and looks good with black trousers. But the kit with the black shorts and red socks looks awful.
It's definitely black shorts.
I think I'm going for the third kit this year. Great looking kit that one.
Yeah cheers.
It’s one the better gimmicky tops. I hated the chevron and gingham ones. Same with black trimming, really. I normally prefer white (probably why I hated the chevron in particular) but it’s okay here.
There's a picture of the full kit on the previous page mate .
I don't care about the rail ways ffs
why do our shirts always have to have some sort of special theme? just give us a nice looking shirt.I've seen the kit. I was just saying that the third kit looks better imo.
I can take a good season in return for horrible kits.
It looks like a poor fit on all of the players modelling it.
That annoys me more than the pattern to be honest - at least get the shape/fit right.

I actually don't mind this kit. Striping looks better than on the leaked ones. Thought I'd hate it but it's better than expected. Not a great kit but not bad either. Luckily the blue kit is great IMHO and the pink one could be as well.
@Raoul Shouldn't this thread be renamed to 18/29 or shut and a new one opened?
Yeah. Someone already started a new one but the majority chose to ignore that thread and carry on the discussion in here.
They could have made the black strips white, or a darker red, or a lighter red. Or pink with neon green pugs sharting out iced donuts. Anything but fecking black.
Knew that shirt reminded me of a wrestler
Ah no, I just meant to your original post about black shorts or white shorts. Thought you mightve missed the full home kit.
If I saw someone wearing that in the street they would never be able to convince me thats an actual kit and not a training top
They are wearing the replica shirt which is a looser fit than the authentic ones. They always wear the replica's on these promo pictures but i have to admit they have never looked so bad in that sense.

Wasn't expecting to see Luke Shaw modelling the kit. This must mean he's staying.
I like the kit, and I never thought I would like any of our kits before 2022.
So those black lines are supposed to signify a connection to railways?
How exactly?
Artistic bent?
Must be, tenuous link at best. Seems like they came up with the stripey design first and only drummed up the railway link after.
Almost certainly the case. It's almost like they've never seen a railway.
It's the club's 140th anniversary, so they wanted to pay a little lip service, but surely if they really wanted to pay tribute to the heritage, they'd have come up with something better than some ugly, slightly patterned black lines above a thick black band. Because that has zero to do with MUFC, Newton Heath or indeed the general concept of railways.
Black shorts. We'll always be playing away home.
Those black lines are like when a toner cartridge is failing and messes your print out up.
Maybe somehow it looks better in the flesh

Nice. Really like it.
They got you already with their marketing i see.
I like how it looks with black trousers.
Not too sold on the socks still, wonder if the alternate are white socks? Alternate shorts white or red (hope not).

See, if the marketing guys had come out and said it was a tribute to Ryan Giggs, then maybe more would buy into it.
Think I said earlier in this thread but this would actually be such a nice kit if the socks faded into white instead of red. That way it’s a logical twist on the normal kit, having all of red, white and black. Red socks just doesn’t make sense, proper butchering of the United home kit there.
Looks much better here:
If the fade from the back lines to the red body weren't as abrupt, this would actually look pretty decent.
They should've done a better job transitioning the colors.

That looks good. It's a very fit mannequin though, to be fair.Looks much better here:
When I first saw this on footyheadlines I threw up in my mouth a bit. We've just now made it to the first pre season match and I'm already in love with it.
But the lines are rail road tracks.
@JoaquinJoaquin could you pm me a link please brother. much appreciated. If anyone has got a link for the 18/19 home kit aswell and pics, please inbox me thanks
