Might 'only' be number 8, but the Withdean-era SKINT shirt was truly madly deeply PERFECT on oh-so-many levels.

Is it actually in an order of ranking? Much as I like our shirt being in that list I can't believe that it's considered better than either 13 or 18, both of which are (to my mind) football shirt works of art.

Bit too close to Palace (10) for my liking.

 

[Hotchilidog]

Don't think much of number 10.

It's in alphabetical order...

Ah, of course. Well, I'm going to blame the bairn for that, have to be some benefits to losing sleep all over the place.

Overall the SKINT has to be the best Albion shirt, but in pure aesthetic terms you can't beat the Inter Milan style away kit from the 90s.

 

[Simster]

I don't think #7 (Brazil 1970) can ever be beaten. Still looks stylish 45 years on, and of course, was worn by arguably the greatest ever side.

The Ajax one comes close though. It's hard to believe how good they were in the 80s and 90s, and their kit is class anyway. I reckon Ajax are the club that the Old Firm wish they could be.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

That Sampdoria kit is pretty wonderful.

Yet again, Coventry's brown kit comes in for a bit of a slagging - am I alone in thinking that it is worthy of a place in THIS list rather than the list of the worst kits, which is its customary home?

 

[ATFC Seagull]

Probably the least nice OF the skint-era shirts used to illustrate it, but ah well.

 

[bn1&bn3 Albion]

Brazil's kit will always be number 1, nothing can beat that beauty..

 

[theboybilly]

A Palace red and blue kit could never be considered cool, just like Watford's kits couldn't

 

[Monkey Man]

I really, really disliked that "new" club badge that Dick Knight insisted upon. Looked like CSE coursework that someone had sent in.

 

[WATFORD zero]

We are also 9th in the worst kit ever

Very true.

 

[seagully]

The Pumas shirt on there is simply exquisite.

 

[Notters]

THIS. The worst of all the withdean Skint kits. The others had the much nicer looking Skint logo and the offset badge. In fact all of these were nicer IMHO:

No we're not, it's ALPHABETICAL!!

I like Santos's one, simple but looks amazing and for a good cause.

Personally I was never really struck on the that Albion shirt, it was just a cool sponsorship, but the shirt itself wouldn't make my top 5 BHAFC kits.
