The New Kits Thread

Not sure whether this is best put here, but I've just been sent an email about a new line of merchandise from the club shop. They are belatedly getting in with the Newton Heath stuff - except it seems they are a bit confused about the old club name:
How hard is it to check things like that before they go into production, let alone on sale?

you got a link to the shirt? Thanks.
 
Hey decorativeed, you might know something about this... I know a lad at Nike who said that they (Nike) were planning a green/gold away top for last season but the club put the kibosh on it for obvious reasons and we ended up with the charcoal and blue chevron shirt instead. You know owt about that one?

Minus the red collar, pretty much.

Does the blue actually fade out towards the bottom or is it the quality of the pic?!
 
I'm pretty sure it's NH LYR (lancashire yorkshire railway) and the font is fecking it up.

I know it's supposed to be LYR (or sometimes L&YR), but it says that in one place and LYH in two other places. It's not the font.

I don't have inside info, but I think it's a rumour and nothing more. It doesn't even stack up when you consider timescales. The kits for last season were released before the green and gold thing kicked off. They would have been designed a year before that and gone into production 6 months or so before the relese date. Nike are hugely conservative with our kits, they've never produced any change kit for us that is not white, black or blue. No surprise they gave us a black and blue kit then.
 
Doubt the colour fades like that. Looks like it was taken by a camera phone from a computer monitor.
 
No shoulder stripe is good
the collar, or lack of, is good too
other than that, looks like the same kit

I want the black kit to return

I dunno, it's not bad, but strikes me as a bit too simple. Maybe on higher resolution more details will be visible.

That one is a fake. I'd guess the other one is too. Cheap knock-offs based on the leaked design. The real ones will look basically very similar, but you can tell there are differences between the two - the collar stripes in particular.
 
The collar or rather the lack of it makes it look like a fecking lady blouse! Horrendous,if true. I'd puke over it.
 
I just saw someone jogging in the City away kit....it's a good kit dammit. A really good kit.

I HATE YOU NIKE!!!!....I HATE YOU!!!
 
That kit's alright I guess, a nice enough kit but I don't see why we don't stick with the current one, it's not a commemorative one or anything so I don't see why not.
 
Man the A.ON kits are nothing on the AIG kits, probably won't but that either. The AIG shirts were nearly all awesome especially the ones we won the titles with...have every one except the white one we lost the CL final with, never liked that.
