23/24 Kit rumours

[Blue Jam]

Home kit okay- like the old Saab kit.
Away kit okay. Ish.
Think kit - shocking

How long we got left with Puma? Can’t wait!

How long we got left with Puma? Can’t wait!

For us to go cap in hand, home to UMBRO?

Would be a brilliant move. Or I’d give Kappa another go.

[Mase]

Just read we’re stuck with them until 2029….
WTF

[Blue Jam]

Hopefully we'll get relagated and Puma will drop us.

The home kit is the one I dislike the most. Looks like it will be poor-fitting and material that will pull/snag easily.

I assume the lightning one is the third kit. If it's a template design that 10-15 clubs are going to be using, I'll be disappointed. I'll also be disappointed if they try to put some kind of 'heritage' PR spin/story on it, or announce it's some kind of 'unique collaboration' with an influencer or brand that's currently enjoying its 15 minutes of fame. It's naff, but as long as we're the only club with that naff design, and it's naff for naff's sake, then I'll take the naffness on the chin.

If we win a trophy in it, I can see the white/maroon/gold affair being a sought-after classic in 25-30 years' time.

Haven't seen them. Our last few 3rd kits have been terrible, sounds like nothing has changed.

Love the home one. Reminds me of my first ever kit in the 80s

Home top is nice, white mediocre, lightning a poor effort imo.

Home looks like the one from when anelka signed.

While I was searching for that one, this came up -



What a beauty that was! I’ve still got it in my wardrobe.

Beautiful kit, but I seem to remember it was really prone to fading, and the sponsor patch cracked over time, because it was made of a really plasticky material. Has yours held up over the years?

It has, but I wore it once and then it’s just sat in a draw since. I did get it out the other year to have a look over and when unfolded it the sponsor was slightly stuck together folder. Seems okay though.

The home kit was the same I think, the First Advice peeled.

It looks maroon and gold to me - colours of the '50s away kit.

Anyone know why we signed into a 10 year contract? Have we done that with any other kit supplier? How long was Umbro/Nike?

Umbro was 10 years, and renegotiated when they were taken over by Nike: https://bleacherreport.com/articles/192 ... artnership
