Castore sure spent a lot of time doing original shirts for us and Wolves






Thing is we’ve seen some of the more established brands do the same thing over the past few years for bigger clubs and countries. These kits are some of the worst we’ve seen in terms of design and quality. Hopefully it’s for the last time.

Not a fan of stripey kits (especially red and white ones) but like how Brentford have incorporated splashes of black into theirs this season. Looks smart.

We seem to have a few different coloured shorts for both the home and away kits now.

Nike (who are on an entirely different level to these chancers Castore) also weren't beyond dipping into the shitty templates bucket for us.

I recall a hoo-haa when that FX Pro home shirt with the check bits was revealed to be the same as they'd kitted some European no-hopers out in the season before.

Castore is all a bit low rent, though, from what I've read, the quality is shite, and the home kit at least seems to make the players sweat like a cornered nun.

Newcastle will be binning Castore for Adidas next season…the club documentary was accidentally put on Netflix(?) that showed episodes where negotiated deal with Adidas.

Let’s hope we are having similar conversations

Watched tonight's CL highlights, thought something like this would be nice in claret and blue, with a global sponsor and unobtrusive logo.

Not unless it had claret body and blue sleeves IMO.

That's what I was thinking, light blue for the sleeves, Adidas stripes/logo and where the white trim on the body is.

Agree on both counts

Add an all-black third kit and I think that would be our best looks.

Like everything to do with Chelsea, this isn't as good as it thinks it is - hollow, ersatz, generally shit. But they seem to have launched an away kit that's the same colour as their home kit.

I like the all white but my gut feel about all claret is that we always lost wearing that combination (until the last ten months!). Therefore I prefer light blue change home shorts

How fucking hard is it just to use another colour?
