New away kit

[Thunder Bolt]

Black shorts? Black socks?......... or black with volt yellow bits?

Yellow shorts and black socks.

Pre-ordered home kit has just arrived. Can confirm no horrible white plastic patch on front. Amex logo individual letters looks nice. Daughter happy with it.

[MENTION=1155]ozzygull[/MENTION] Are the individual letters stuck on, or are they embedded as part of the fabric like the old Brighton and Hove Jobs Errea kit?

This "alternative strip" bobbins is quite clearly so that they can justify wearing it in away games even when there is NO colour clash whatsoever - something that has always irritated me.

So when we trot out wearing yellow and green at the Emirates, someone'll ask the clubs Twitter feed "Err..why are we wearing our away kit at Arsenal ??"

"It's not an away kit. It's an alternative strip"

Righto then

individual letter stuck on not embedded, but still a massive improvement to last years.

It looks pretty bad on professional athletes. But I'm sure it'll look great on beerguts

 

[BensGrandad]

So it's not an age thing then, but a beer gut / fatness thing.

Combination of both as I cannot understand why a person of 40+ years wants to look like a teenager in his football shirt. This with a beer gut makes it a no go for me.

 

[Guinness Boy]

I still like it

University gold- it is yellow FFS sounds like something from a B&Q paint colour chart.

Alternative kit - it is an away kit FFS we won't wear it at a home match.

What a load of nonsense, who thinks up this stuff?

It will look stunning worn over 2 jumpers and a hoody on a cold January evening

Has to be the WORST shirt we've ever had , even the PINK one was better than that

Its nothing to do with trying to look like a teenager. Its a supporting-the-club kinda thing. Personally I love seeing the stands at the Amex FULL of blue and white stripes all around the stadium, whatever the age of the wearer. Far better that than a mass of sensibly-attired gentlemen decked out in tweed, duffle coats or tastefully-designed woolly pullovers from George. You're not watching crown green bowls.

I haven't had a 'current' shirt for years now, but do regularly wear my retro 70s stripes to games. I'm 40+ years and am far from svelt.

Sorry.

"Why are we wearing our alternative kit at Arsenal?"

"Because its an alternative to our home kit"

 

[Brighton_Rose]

I'd prefer it a bit more fitted going by most of the pics.
Although I think the colour and fit looks better in the pic of Murray wearing it so will see.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I'd prefer it a bit more fitted.

I might be making a big assumption with your user name, but this season's new shirts have ladies sizes. That's why I haven't ordered one, because I want to go to the shop and try one on first.

Utter gash, just a normal Nike shite shirt!

 

[Yoda]

Even though it's one of their templates, I do wish we were still with Errea :

It looks like Norwich City. Not doing it for me.

Nike football kits really are not anything special.

Yup, utter nonsense, so far I can't see any other teams in the EPL calling their away kit 'alternative', frankly makes us look a bit tinpot IMO.
