Thankfully the home is just nummy nums. It looks like a Championship level club's away shirt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) But I kind of like it, other than the V-neck. Edited June 29, 2016 by maqroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntrimBlack Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Home shirt is classy and timeless. But perhaps that is just my age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the collar is left open it probably wont look too bad. Shirts buttoned all the way up is cool. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted June 29, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 29, 2016 I can't buy either, but only because an UA kit won't hide one's beer gut too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy them myself, but I think for people that do, they should have the option of buying the shirt without the advertising, or even one with Acorns instead. The idea of sponsoring a team is that you get your logo on their jersey. This gives you exposure on television and turns the 1000's (or millions in the case of the bigger clubs) of fans who buy the replica kit into walking billboards for your company. What your proposing goes against the whole idea of sponsoring a team's kit. I like the away kit, it looks nice. The home kit is a bit too plain for my tastes but might be nice.

The Villa View Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Pleased to say these images were from us, our presenter Matt tweeted them out from his personal account and our account on Twitter. These are 100% the kits, the images going around came from us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted June 29, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 29, 2016 I think you can tell that the club gets a big input on the kits. In recent years our home kits have always been pretty traditional, and the away kits have often been a throwback to a previous kit. Whereas Spurs, even though they're UA too, always have a bit more "creative" design. But fwiw, I prefer our approach. The new Spurs one is crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I don't have a problem with the size of the sponsors, but the sponsor on the away top being in black looks wrong to me. It should have been in claret, or there should have been more black on the shirt so it ties in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were either taken in the club shop, or the New St store though. Personally I can't remember which of those it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having it in claret wouldn't mean you couldn't see the sponsor. I know the dafabet logo on a previous shirt had the sponsor in white to match an away kit (or something like that, I can't remember exactly), instead of their usual gold/yellow colour logo.

I remember somebody ( @NurembergVillan maybe?) pointing out a few years back the colour of the logo is totally up to the sponsor. it's why we had the FXPro logo in colour on the black shirt even though it looked shit. No idea if there is a discussion, but my guess would be the sponsor sees the shirt and then decides how the logo would stand out best. I imagien they give almost no consideration to how it looks compared to the rest of the kit. Just if it stands out enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
