I love them both. I hope that we get something different ie no blue sleeves, we need to distance ourselves from the villa of last season. I'm afraid these have the feel of a fan mock up though. Shame because they are really nice

With light blue shorts and white socks the home top would look good. Id wear both at home and to gym.

Very nice.

Straight away they're an improvement on Macron for not looking like a sort of championship club Poundland top. Which is ironic now that we actually are a championship club.

Love the Away kit..home kit must have blue sleeves, anything else is unacceptable.
Agreed. Don't f*ck with the blue sleeves.

Love the home one...actually love them both. About time we had something different for a season or two..going without blue sleeves won't kill us.

It reminds me of the Diadora one we wore in '01/02 which had claret sleeves too. No idea whether it's real or a fan's effort but it still feels like a Villa kit to me and every new designer seems be trying to do something a little different to distinguish their home kit from others.

These kits are fan made by someone on Villa Talk, not going to be the official kits.

Look good those, especially the away. Any adult over 35 shouldn't be wearing one anyway, I thought that was an unwritten rule? Retro kits fine.

I think we should be trying to reinforce our identity, not dilute it. If we're not careful, claret shirts, blue sleeves will become more synonymous with West Ham and Burnley than with us. Other than their 'final season at Highbury' shirt, Arsenal have not tinkered with their format, and I don't think we should either. I'm not a marketing expert, but I can't help thinking that if we'd had a more concerted effort during the 90s, in the same way that Man Utd did, and didn't vary our shirt format, then we would have a bigger international profile now.

I also read that they are mock ups but wouldn't expect them much different

Hate the home, love the away. Least they can give us is a shirt with blue sleeves. If this is indeed the shirt I am v v disappointed. We are villa ffs

From someone on Twitter so may well not be the new shirts but must admit I quite like them.



Someone on VT did them, they're mock ups. But yeah they are nice.
