Stick a Villa badge on it, job done.

Don't mind that it's Kappa and I have a feeling it'll either be very good or terrible rather than average. 

This is so true . some like superb and some look horrendous , never middle of the road

Blimey Mr Shin, that looks like something out of Star Trek!!

I like it, just not the blue bit, or the claret bit.

Be funny and refreshing if we released a statement saying ‘we chose to partner with Kappa because they agreed to pay us more money that anyone else’

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I'll go for the China kit but with the lion rather than a dragon in claret & blue, obviously.

Changed my mind, a Claret & blue version of the 1997-98 Barcelona European home kit.

Looking at the video, the shirt has blue sleeves and shorts are blue. Interesting to see Luke were Technical partner this season and 32 Red were Principal Partner. Kappa announced as Principal Partner and sounds like Fanatics will still manufacture it but Kappa will design it.

Blue shorts?! 

[Smirker]

Don't care who the manufacturer is while we still have the awful crest.

[VinnieChase84]

It’s not the skin tight kit either

[Villafirst]

Disappointing. Would have preferred Adidas. Naseef Sawiris has a 6% stake in that brand.

[Smirker]

80s crest + umbro and the shirts would fly off the shelves.

This is something I'd like to see changed as well , if we do get promoted rebranding the club, new badge & all that  wouldn't be a bad move.

I could be wrong but I don't think Kappa have made kits for that many English clubs.

Man City in the 90s

Leeds current kit.

Maybe Wigan as well at one point?

Can't think of any more.

When I think of Kappa I think of chavvy tracksuits and skin tight football shirts with ridiculous figures running down the sleeves

[ktvillan]

I just hope they do a better job on the colours than the last Italian suppliers we had with their purple and lilac monstrosities.  At least Luke brought proper claret back.
