The badge looks brilliant and will probably look even better on the away kit and training gear. Sponsor looks s*** though, awful. Burger King FFS! Yeah, the kit is fine I think. Probably not one for the ages, but once we see the lads play in it it’ll be a villa kit proper. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 2 hours ago, Stephen_Evans said: In the blurb on the website it talks of reaction to the “crest and kit moniker”. I’m usually good with words but what on Earth do they mean by “kit moniker”? Moniker is usually a name or nickname or an alias. It could also in this case, be a reference to the kit's "informal label" drawing attention to a particular attribute. Sounds a bit "sales speak" to me, my first thought was: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are actually nice kits too. Ours just looks cheap. I don't know what it is, is it the pattern, the material? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF, I think our shirt here is a 3D render and not a photo. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours just looks cheap. I don't know what it is, is it the pattern, the material? Welp, this is just another reason I've been saying for ages, I'd like if we incorporated our colours slightly differently. A bit less Blue as there are Burnley, Scunthorpe, West Ham etc Al ( And no calling them kit stealers doesn't change that ). More Claret and gold, even white if necessary. Problem is, alot of people remain with " Claret Body and Blue sleeves that's all a Villa kit should ever be ". We need to evolve ffs. I'm sure we could find more unique ways to incorporate and differenciate our colours. But those Burnley kits actually are nice lol Edited June 22, 2023 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do they do this when the vast majority of football fans have big guts! Maybe the real question is why do big gut-suffering football fans think wearing a replica shirt is a good look? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasetown Villa Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Shirt itself is decent, but not spectacular. That sponsor however, utterly disgusting. That’s what ruins it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkLillis Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) The design of the kit that the players wear feels unimportant to me. Modern football is something that I enjoy immensely. Todays game with it’s technical excellence,it’s competitiveness and the wall to wall coverage we get is brilliant in many ways. However this thing about the kit……they are taking us for mugs here.

Rodders Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Good, glad there's some other supporters out there recognising it. I hate the narrative that seems to be anything and everything must be permitted for a club to 'succeed', like there aren't any other paths a club can take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what ruins it. Indeed. A part of me objects to the new sponsor because I'm ideologically opposed to gambling advertising in general. More specifically though, this one is **** hideous. Who wants to pay 60 odd quid to wear that shit on their chest. No thanks. Up there with "Cows" as our worst sponsor, I'm embarrassed we've put this shit on our shirts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Will wait to see what the away shirt looks like, if I like that will get it once it’s reduced, not paying £70 for a football shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 The more I look at it, the more I hate it. The main sponsor is getting a lot of stick but the sleeve sponsor is **** hideous too. The pattern of the shirt belongs in my nan's upholstery collection, they've used the wrong **** lion on the back, and the gk shirt looks like a Razer mouse mat. Absolutely **** shite. But absolute **** shite is about all Castore make. Still, probably good for FFP or some bollocks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burchy Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 The shirts basically the Wolves away shirt recoloured. Garbage. someone needs to send the designs from earlier in this thread (ShaunTealesTash was it) with a ‘pull your figure out’ post it note attached. Must do better Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
