Apart from that year when they phoned it in (the FX Pro one sub was horrible) at least the Nike kits looked nice.

If we just get minimum effort whatever Newcastle and wolves get except different colours it’d be underwhelming to say the least.

Although the only one I actually bought and wear is the 1980 away shirt replica which Umbro put out a couple of years ago. Really decent quality and very nice shirt.

The best Nike still for me anyway, is the Acorns set. Lovely simple designs, colours and quality.

I liked the FX Pro one with the chequers up the sides. Both the home and the black one!

That Acorns white away kit. Very smart.

That was the year it wasn't available to buy until October/November I think.

This is the sort of thing (kit availability) Chris Heck will be sorting out, I hope.

Obviously as well as being our Chief North American Scout.

My daughter wants to go to the Villa shop for her birthday. (June 14th). On one hand I’m happy that it will be full of sale items, on the other I don’t want her being upset when the new kit comes out just a few weeks later.

It will all be the old (current) badge too. Happy Birthday to her though, same day as mine.

I really liked the black away one. As TV mentions, the Nike Acorns shirts were nice and probably the best we'd had since the Diadora Rover kit in 2002/03.

There are some restrictions around parking because of next weeks gigs so I'd check first. I think the shop is still open and 14th isn't a concert day.

Thanks Nev.

The acorns shirts were special due to the acorns gesture.

Its just a shame about the crest.

The new crest on that shirt would be wonderful...

Agree that's why I don't like them. The actual shirts are fine for the most part but ruined by Lerner's shit badge.

Me too, BV. I have that in long sleeve with Makoun on the back!

I got a white long sleeve Acorns Milner, and a black long sleeve FxPro Albrighton.

I would pay over the top to have a long sleeve option again, but it looks like it’s been eradicated across all clubs and kit makers.

At the time, my parents sent me over the UA home shirt and long-sleeve training top and the quality of the shirts is far superior to anything else I have. It would be nice to see similar quality again with the new kit and training gear, just never again made by UA.
