Kits 23/24

[Brazilian Villain]

What an absolute shambles, amateur beyond belief.

Yep, our very own 'New Coke' moment. Pusrslow's only been gone a week and it's all going to shit.

[Smirker]

I suspect Heck reckons there's too much brand recognition in the current badge and has put the brakes on.

Or is it simply the cost to replace the old badge on everything around the ground?

That would worry me. I thought we were loaded?

#AVFC's current shield crest will remain visible next season, while the 1982-inspired round badge will only be used across the 2023/24 kits and training wear.

The club plans to further engage with supporters on the future identity of Villa.

What would be the point?

We already did that & they have decided to tell us to go fuck ourselves...

Kit looks ok to me. It’s a bit strange that having gone through the bother of getting our opinions on various badge designs, the chosen one might not be with us for long but really the final decision is with them.
I’m more bothered about what’s happening on the pitch, they could play in something designed by Kalvin Phillips and I’d get used to it after a while.

[SamTheMouse]

Why do we keep getting these tacky shitehawks like Castore and Luke thingy to make our kits?

Can't Nas sort something out with Adidas, FFS?

[four fornicholl]

How can it be a homage to 82 when it’s facing the wrong fucking way!

[UK Redsox]

Shirt sponsored by a Star Wars robot ?

Because it's round?

Look, I mean, I don't get the issues that people have here, but whatever you think the language on this thread is a little out of proportion. 'Shambles' etc. I can guarantee that nobody out there in the football world gives a damn about any of this - why don't we ask Everton fans what a 'shambles' looks like; indeed, why not ask ourselves a mere few years ago?

I get it if people don't like the kit, or the badge, or the consultancy process or whatever, but we risk sounding like unhinged comic book fans losing their minds because Iron Man's suit is the wrong shade of rust. 'Worst. Badge. Ever!'

Don't care what shape the badge is as long as they perform on the pitch

Because they realised they offered the wrong choices and thus we weren't making informed and good choices.

My 8 year old doesn't like the kit. Especially as the sponsor isn't on it.. He does quite like the keeper shirt though.

Name another club, or indeed another globally recognised company who have made such a balls up of a rebranding and come out with such an amateurish attempt at justifying it?

Bonus for you then, you’ll be able to keep your money in your wallet that little bit longer.

The pattern on the claret is "soundwaves of Villa fans singing Alez, alez, alez" apparently.

They resemble a load of slugs (don't know the collective noun for slugs).

Agree
Its the off the pitch stuff that we look like complete armatures.
