villa4europe Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Yeah printed badge isn't the best but do they do a more expensive version and we're only seeing the cheap one? They're all perfectly fine and will look alright on the players, don't think I'll be parting with £70 for them but might pick up the home shirt when on offer On to the training gear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas the kappa logos on last years pro shirts are peeling off already. I guess it's in the heat process hopefully they are done like Nike.

The colour of the floor is different between the home and away so again not giving us a clear idea what colour the away actually is . Thanks Rob! The away is blue. You can tell because the inside of it is white. In fact the inside of all of them is white, which means they've printed the colour rather than dyeing fabric - which wouldn't be my first choice. It looks pretty cheap. Ideally you'd dye the fabric in the lightest colour you're using on each shirt and then print any darker colours on it. These are the pro shirts so I can understand the lightweight heat transfers badges and logos but I'd be disappointed if they were on the replicas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The away doesn't look like it has the vents...maybe that's the fan version. Only 4 holes as well, instead of 8 like the home and third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 There's a picture of one online with a rubberized badge, I think the players normally have a printed badge because it makes the shirt more lightweight, their top also made of a lighter material, which is why you see their shirts get so easily ripped in games. In fact I read that for fans it's better to get the cheaper replica top as those will last longer. The claret seems to lack a certain vibrancy that I associate with AV claret, could be just the light or maybe an early prototype, either way will get used it and will eventually become just another Villa top, I don't wear them myself as I don't like the material, so doesn't really matter too much to me, but always interested to see what they come up with for each season.

Makes sense, and I doubt a PL club are washing and reusing the same shirt 38 times a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 I have to say the blue in the kits looks shite. Not much vibrancy in the colours at all. I can never understand why they keep F***** it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Simon Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 They're fine. Not spectacular, not shite, just fine. This might be the most boring post of my time on VT thus far. (Much like those shirts). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
