I mean it's mediocre but it's a lot better than the home kit.

I imagine there will be some right funky 3rd kit coming soon.

In store

Still trying to get the image on the shirt. Is it a magic eye picture?

At the very least I appreciate that the photo shoots are just them in the kit looking like they're football players. None of this jeans and couches nonsense.

Like the simple design, dislike the tie-die effect.

It's fine.  Not as nice as the white Kappa kit, but still ok.

The white bits look like some sort of 1970s wallpaper nightmare.

That's awful. Well done Castore, two absolute stinkers. If you're going to have a "main body adorned with a graphic inspired by Villa's iconic crest" (their words) then shouldn't it be the crest that is on the actual shirt?

I really dislike Castore.
Sadly they are all over the place, like dog shit.

It's a different length at the front than at the back.

I think this kit will have been designed before some prick decided to turn the lion around.  I'm sure read (or maybe heard in a podcast with Rob Warner) that the lead in times on the kit designs is huge - at least a year.

At a quick glance it looks decent. Then you look closer and see the shoulders, the dots and the bizarre pattern. WTF is the pattern meant to be? Take those things away and i'd like it. As it is, it's a bit wank.

It's a chopped up lion. The old lion.

Better than the HomeKit
Probably because the sponsor is less noticeable
