I like the kit to be honest. We would all be complaining if it was the same as other years, so to add some funky design elements to it to make it different to others is fine by me. Not too simliar to last years to make me not want to buy it.
Looking forward to the away and 3rd too this year, as these kits for other clubs with Kappa look nice. Hope we have a third kit with a colour nothing to do with the club too to shake things up. Barca do this well each year with their random coloured 3rd kit colours.
I have to be honest but I mocked us signing with Kappa when it was announced, but I have spent more money on kappa training and kits than i have any other brand we have had during my 43 years on this planet - although i am not proud of this
Not sure i understand everyones affinity with the Luke kits either. Didnt buy any of the ranges, and as most on VT are purists wanting the simple claret body and blue sleeves year after year, i can never understand why these were so popular given they dont conform and where abit - bland imo. If i was to get a kit from a bygone era it woul dhave to be the original hummel or umbro kits with the string. Quite simply classics.
Lastly, after looking at the home kit now it has been leaked, i wonder if this give Kappa the ability to launch a 4th kit during the season that celebrates the 40th anniverasy as a special kit that may get worn for one game at the launch. Lots of teams around Europe now do this and they go down well it seems with the fans of those clubs. Just a thought i had that might explain why the home was a not a direct reference to the kit we all wanted reimagined for the anniversary.
What do people think? Is this in Kappa's locker, or the AV decision makers to create 'extra' income from a special kit mid season?
