a m ole Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 It certainly is a football kit! The bad superimposition of the logo on the official images is throwing it off a little, I think it will look nicer in real life. I don't like the mosaic on the away, a solid claret would be much cleaner and look less like a training top- but overall I like it. The badge extending over the edges of the stripe is a nice touch. On the home, the lions will likely look a little less shiny in real life, away from a studio flash. Pretty solid job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, seeing grown men in football colours and even worse with a name on their back makes me cringe. Each to their own though I suppose.

Xela Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Well, its claret and blue and its a football shirt. I'd like to see something a bit different one year in terms of design 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chips'ngravy Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Nobody ever seems to like the sponsor emblazoned on the shirt, I get that. But having a sponsor is something we should be used to by now. However, does it have to be another betting company? We should be better than that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted July 1, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 1, 2017 Anyone seen it in the flesh? Is that possible yet? I've a feeling the lions may have been emphasised on the shots of just the shirt. I reckon they're much more subtle IRL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say no one could or should write anything about the new Villa kit. I just said it surprised me how many people wanted to. People analysing minute details of what is polyester tat thrown together for a couple of quid somewhere then sold to us for 50 plus quid. I wont be buying another replica shirt till my current one falls to pieces, same as I always do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, although I was angling towards a zebra print onesie type style. I just think a slightly different design like the hummel one from 1989 or the 2000 cup final one. Still claret and blue but a bit different. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Not thrilled with the logo, but at least it's kind of on the small side as sponsor logos go. I don't like the camo-checks across the away shirt. would much prefer the home shirt to not have those lions, it's looks too busy. Otherwise, both shirts are decent efforts, but nothing that makes them really must-buys for me. I wonder what the change strip will be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted July 1, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 1, 2017 Not too bothered about the sponsor, who ever pays the most money is fine. I think that's the problem when shirts are leaked without a sponsor; you get used to it without one which is always better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
