New Kit for 16/17 Season

[Superphil]

None of them are in the football league - that's my point.

Colchester, Bradford too I think, if not now, certainly in very recent years. As I said before, it's never been a FL or FA rule, it's just been dictated by kit manufacturers allowing for all worldwide markets to be covered by their designs.

Are you having a giraffe? I went on a strike of buying England shirts under the Umbro era until Nike became the manufacturer.

That's your opinion which is fine.

I'd say that in the last 5 years, Umbro have put out consistently better kits than Nike across the board. Nike will give teamwear to all but the biggest clubs. Umbro use better fabric to create bespoke designs and in my opinion they piss all over Nike. They seem to understand what designing a decent kit for the players and fans is all about, rather than slapping a logo on a £15 teamwear shirt just to maximise profit.

Umbro keeps it simple and classy more often than not. PSV, West Ham, Everton, Hull and Derby all have very good kits.

The SASTA kit?

So, the time has come to fork out £50 smacker-roos for a new shirt. Personally since we changed to "AMERICAN EXPRESS" sponsor I haven't purchased a home shirt due to the fact I'm not a fan of the cheap looking giant rectangular sticker across the middle. I did however purchase the away and 3rd strip last season (3rd strip will be burnt as I believe it is a bad omen (Cardiff 4 - 1 Brighton). As the individual sponsor letters look smart.

I've seen two pictures circulating on-line, one of which echoes from the 80's choice of strip. Big fan of the British Caledonian, Phoenix Brewery and NOBO kits.

Are these real or someone having fun on photoshop?

These would make me very happy, very happy indeed.

It's what we had when I first starting watching The Albion, granted it's not traditional but for a couple of seasons why not?

I do apologise, my post sounded more severe than I had intended! I just personally have never liked Umbro.

I do agree about Nike though. I use to love them, but now I see how limited their templates are in comparison to Errea. I'll hold further comments until we feast our eyes on this season's! I do like Nike's Albion training gear though.

Prefer Puma kits out of all of them tbh.



Nice and simple.

That second strip looks like a bar of Aero. Is it a p*ss take? While we're on the p*ss take subject, do the initials on the badge signify F*** Crystal Palace?

You aren't alone

This would do nicely as the away shirt

How about a rerun of that 70s kit with the seagulls down the arms?

Gorgeous design.

Shit....

...irrespectively I'd love to see a version of that put out.

They have a sale on www.seagullsdirect.co.uk, the home and the volt kits are both half price.
The red third kit is not reduced.

For some reason the volt shorts have been withdrawn from sale, or they were this morning.

Anyone know when the new kit will be announced? I've got some birthday money to spend and a new shirt would do nicely ... as long as it doesn't have that horrible sticker look for the sponsor again!

Really? I managed to get two at around half 11
