The New Kits Thread

fecking hell, home one is even nicer.

Ordering this. Sneijder is #10 for Holland right?
 
It's going to be weird seeing United wear red socks for the first time since the 60s.
 
IIRC from watching old clips, United at one point wore a completely red, completely white and completely blue kit, it would be nice to do that again for a period, if we're going to get away from the red, white and black standard.
 
Was hoping that the 11/12 tartan pattern home jersey would be a little like the current Aston Villa one, where you can only see it up close.

Completely red? No thanks.
 
Completely red? No thanks.

Am I remembering that wrong? I know we wore all white and all blue.

Of course that would make people think of Liverpool, but they don't have any claim on red, it's pretty much the first thing on the kit design list, most recognizable color on a plain kit.

Only for three games (against Bolton - to try them out under the new floodlights - and Real Madrid) in 1957. That was 7 years before Liverpool wore all red.

We wore all blue for the first time in the 1968 European Cup final (we usually wore blue shirts with white shorts and either white or blue socks for third kits up until then) and have done many times since then. We wore all white away kits loads of times since the 1950s (before that we ususally wore black socks with white shirts and shorts).
 
The socks should be predominatley black with a red strip.

Red, White and Black.

Not Red and White

Tradition
 
Looks like they got our socks and the gooners socks mixed up. Or maybe, given that Barca's socks don't even come close to matching their kit, the socks aren't designed yet?

Red socks look awful for our kit, they should be black, or white as the tie demands.

I agree with your thoughts on the socks. Barca's blue socks don't match the rest of their kit, we haven't had red socks since 1971 and Arsenal haven't had dark socks since the late 20s/early 30s.

Thanks for that, always love learning little details like this!
 
I thought nothing could beat the ugliness of the 2009/10 kit (i still bought it though) which had the V sign on it, turned out i was wrong!
 
Barcelona's kit is what a beginner on photoshop does, multicolored gradient for background.
 
I agree with that above kit looking nice, with the red/white/red combo, but for as long as mist people now can remember we've worn red/white/black, with the occassional red/white/white if the black clashed. The black socks would look better with the planned new kit than the red ones, and Arsenals dark ones aren't normal to them either.

I think they mixed them up.
