A heavy nod to the 1990-1992 away template (actually, weren't we wearing it in March'93 when Stan scored his crackerjack off the stanchion at Old Trafford?), no claret required. Job's a good'un.

Quite like the idea of doing something a bit different like that rather than another white or light blue effort. That might change if/when I see it. That's the only time I remember seeing speculation anyway. I think when we're so tied to basically the same design over and over for home kits we should do something very different with the away. I liked the blue and black acorns one, for example.

Quote from: aldridgeboy on July 02, 2023, 05:28:12 PMI don’t recall where I saw this, but I thought at the time it wasn’t just a fan designed mock up ? But I’m certainly not ITK or anything I'm guessing it's a mock-up given the sponsor's logo is all one colour in it. Wasn't there a suggestion when the home kit was launched that the away kit might have hoops in it, due to a shirt Ollie was wearing in the release promo?

That wasn't bad but the aforementioned 'quarters' kit was probably my favourite of our 'different' away efforts.Chelsea have gone for a navy and blue away shirt which is an interesting choice. Have to say the design is a bit different but I quite like it.https://www.footyheadlines.com/2022/10/nike-chelsea-23-24-away-kit.html

CDBullyWee was aghast. Don't think that's why he ain't on here no more, though.Anyone know where he is?Hope he is ok.

Some of their supporters might feel the colours are a bit close to ours though.
Is the thinking, "if we have a kit like theirs, we might play like them?" I suppose it's a different approach than coaching and tactics.
