Lazio have a new macron kit, claret and blue away too!

Archie will be pleased.

Surely Blackshirts would be a better option for Lazio?

Plenty of pictures of all the club badges on the internet. I agree with both of you. The current one is dreadful. Looks washed out and is far too big. The round one was by far the best design.

I don't mind it. It's better than the previous two. The 70's/80's one is OK but too many clubs have the circular shield with a lion in it.

I think an embroidered yellow/gold lion would be decent.

Just been watching West fat spam.the addidas kit they have got is terrible.More white lines than a catwalk model's dressing room.

I agree on West Ham.

Scunthorpe's new Nike kit looks familiar:-



Burnley's Puma effort isn't too bad:-



I think we can all agree that kits look better without the sponsor's logo.

Burnley always seem to get our kits right, West Ham always fuck them up.

That Scunthorpe one looks alright.

As an aside, wasn't part of the reasoning behind the Macron deal this notion that we would be one of the biggest names on their books and would get preferential treatment? 

We don't seem to exist, according to their website:  http://www.macron.com/shop/uk/en/football.html

Napoli, Lazio, Bologna, Monaco, Hadjuk Split and even titans such as Foggia and Adaccio all mentioned, but no Villa.

Odd.  Though maybe we have some deal where we only sell our merchandise through the clubs own website. 

The Hadjuk kit looks alright there, and they always seem to turn out reasonable efforts for Napoli and Lazio.  Which makes me think the problem might be at our end.  Admittedly I'm no expert in the design process, but isn't it usually standard that 3 to 4 designs are submitted and the club then has to select one?  In which case, some jobsworth at our end is simply going "Yeah, that will do" to any old tat. Looking at the other kits there, the Macron men, crap collars and other jizz don't seem to be compulsory.

Why the f@ck couldn't Nike do something like that for us?  Their last couple of kits were shocking.

Could be worse.

http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/worst-kits-in-sport-spanish-side-release-tuxedostyle-home-kit-9623670.html

If I was a player I'd refuse to wear that. I know it's not all about the kit when you play but how does that inspire any confidence knowing when you go out pretty much everyone else is taking the piss? And some of those others are top notch too. The beer one and the peas. Fuck me, I hope all of those execs who agreed to that are now wearing concrete boots.
