Anyone with a hairy chest will be wary of that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with a hairy chest will be wary of that! It could be the way it’s laying as you say, but the abrupt stop of the v neck looks unfinished to me. It’s not a bad shirt otherwise but that neck just looks odd. A bit different I suppose though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Man, that sponsor is just horrendous looking. Cherry on top is that it's a shady ass gambling company too. What a shit show 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than having the vertical stripe of this 2 years ago as the change strip, and it being our version of this years Newcastle 3rd it’s great. leftovers for dinner!

You're even making that horrendous sponsor logo look bearable. Also using the lion without the shield mirroring the 1878 one is genius.

It's also sexy a f Would work with a narrative behind the kit too and put all this stole Chelseas lion bullshit to bed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently bought a remake of that from a mate of a bloke who is often seen at games in retro shirts (good marketing ploy). In all I've bought 4 off him; two hummel and two le coq....and the "coq" (kw) is stitched rather than made of that fuzzy felt material of the original which used to come off in the wash. Not original and not cheap (about £45/£50) but great quality and better than the "score draw" brands the club shop used to sell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of this one ... I know it's all just taste, but kits all seem laughably overly busy to me in 2023, worse than the 90s even. Too many patterns under patterns and overlays and "watermarks" and little pretentious ornamentations, like web pages with too much going on or Arcade Fire music or something. Would love to see this kind of thinking in Villa ... Edited May 19, 2023 by Marka Ragnos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were some horrendous decisions made in the first few years of MLS, and the Clash shirts were among the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
