I like both better than last seasons. The away kit last year, was the Albion kit I’ve most disliked ever. It’s the weird khaki/snot coloured sleeves.
Written by a child I guess. There are few shirts on there I really like and certainly only 1 I would wear in public and there really is something about the palace shirt that makes me sick. perhaps is just a pavlovian response.
Amended accordingly.
Is that the green one? I never buy replica shirts but I'm tempted to get that. I say 'tempted' but I'm guessing the price will put me off.
I don't see a lot wrong with the home kit tbh. Its blue and white stripes, thye're never going to re-invent the wheel, unless you're going to go doing something REALLY different and outlandish like that Argentina kit we had at Withdean (which was bloody awful IMO). The sponsors aren't iron-on, and having seen it up close and handled the goods it seems well enough made. So its a template and not "bespoke" - so what ? Can't say I'll lose any sleep over it. As long as we're in the stripes, and its the proper blue and white with no messing around with faded bits and shit, I've got no beef.
I guess I'm not the target audience though. Must be getting old.
The whole kit thing pisses me off without fail every year. And it pisses me off that it pisses me off, because it really shouldn't. How can something that should be so simple end up as such a cluster**** season after season?
What we need for our home kit is THIS (admittedly with a more modern collar). And the back should look like THIS (with the panel starting slightly higher to incorporate the player's name). And that is IT. No stupid design features or gimmicks. Just THIS. Piss easy.

...of kits. Apparently. Barbs will be FUMING:
"They’ve just gone with the generic template for Nike really and just added the crest and sponsor. I also think their away kit looks like a goalkeeper kit.
I don’t think you’d see anyone wearing that out. Well, I’d hope not anyway.
Style: 3/10. Originality: 2.5/10. Wearability: 2.5/10 - Total: 8 out of 30"

I often feel in the minority when it comes to our kits. I tend to like the less popular ones, and dislike the popular ones. It's all subjective really, isn't it, but the fact they listed Palace so high and Brighton bottom has me suspicious about the impartiality of the author.
I agree. Leeds have Marching on Together on theirs but on the outside [emoji848]Spot on.
Straight off the Nike template shelf. No thought or originality went into the design this season.
The only nice bit about the shirt -The inscription of Sussex by the Sea...shame its inscribed on the inside of the shirt!
