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

As the badge is, cough, a one off nod to the early 80s maybe they've done the pattern like that as that's the last time anyone bought wallpaper like that.

It all makes sense now. It's a visual timeline print. Twats.

Quote
A unique design that showcases the lions that have represented Aston Villa throughout its existence, the new away shirt is a visual timeline print that tells the story of the club’s proud journey since our foundation in 1874.

The redesigned crest, which pays homage to our European Cup-winning heroes of 1982, appears on Villa’s playing and training kits this season.

The new kit will be worn for the first time when the men’s first team play against Brentford in Maryland, USA, in the Premier League Summer Series on Sunday, July 30.

If that had been plain white, it would have been nice. That pattern in it as awful.

I’ll be buying the warm up shirt this year !

Call me daft, but looking at the pics on the official website,  do the women's shorts seem a lot tighter than the men's?

It’s the only time of the year men understand anything about fashion, style and colours!

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.

😂

Aren't they just.

Absolute fucking shite

I’m not a fan of Castore, however we’ve had many, far worse away kits than that.

So both kits have some odd design watermark bollocks.

The away is miles better than the home shirt mind.

Yes.  It's almost as if women's clothing can be tailored differently to men's.  But I'm sure anyone can buy or wear they style they prefer.

Credit for having the shitty sponsor in claret at least, that branded yellow would look awful (as it does on the home).

Probably depends on what size you buy.

Me too, sponsor logo in one colour much better. I like the watermark effect of the various lions used within our club since 1874. Not sure about the back. Wing slightly longer than front, we’ve done that before though.
I bet Chris Heck is having palpitations today seeing it launched, but only available online and not in club shop, a marketing nightmare .
Will be interesting to see how these launches pan out next year under his total guidance . Is it the last year with Castore ?
