I don't mind it, but two observations:

We now have a third badge in use this season.
Why couldn't we have had a single-colour sponsor logo on the home shirt?

Yes it looks so much better in single  colour  , so tacky on the home

So the women’s shorts are white for home and sky blue for away….thought most clubs were moving to women’s kits having dark shorts?

As for the shirts, as a middle aged bloke with a front row forward build I am not the target market but I am sure there will be plenty sold.  I can see past the scummy sponsor but neither shirt is offensive but neither will be iconic unless we actually win something in them

The Women's kit is just a photo opportunity. They will wear claret shorts at home like last season.

It's not traditional but I think claret shorts look better anyway.

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.

The fact that they are still going with this "homage" bullshit is incredibly insulting...

I don't mind the jersey. Its better than the home one, but I cant begin to describe how irritating it is to have all the fans thought of as absolute imbeciles by the club...

Just admit what is happening & most of us will accept it...

On a separate but slightly related note, I got my 89/90 away shirt from that chap someone linked to on Instagram a while back & it is a thing of beauty.

Going to get them to source me the home shirt from the same year too... 👍

Currently, if you buy it from Fanatics directly, SCORE15 will give you a 15% discount (although it wipes out the free delivery).

Why are there sniper rifles trained on the back's of players shirts?

I'm digging the shorts for both home and away. The socks too, actually.

From a distance it just white. It’s fine, a bit meh. It will look nice when the players play in it. I wish we were bolder with our colours and designs.
