The curse of the black kit struck again.

A very large number of posts from Villa fans on X agreed with that sentiment.

Looking through the aways we have left, I don’t think we need to wear it again.

Palace - 3rd kit
Spurs (FA Cup) - home
Newcastle - home
Bournemouth- 3rd
Wolves - home/3rd
Man U - 3rd (purple shorts)
Forrest - 3rd (purple shorts)
Fulham - home
Burnley - 3rd
Man City - home

Not keen on any of them (for differing reasons).

Home shirt is an abomination.

Second and third are fine. Not sure what the first one is but it isn't a Villa home shirt.

Home looks cack, black is decent, white would be better without the pattern.

Now, I usually like the all Claret tops, but I’m not struck on that one, although I do like the badge.
The Black and the White ones are pretty good

I love that black one, ticks pretty much every box for me, and the standalone lion looks great.

Hope they sort out the size of the badge on the new kits.

XS is the same size as the 13-14 kids version but with a much bigger badge / Adidas logo which looks out of scale with the kit.
Wouldn’t be an issue if we didn’t have a gambling sponsor.

Weirdly they woman’s kit has the same size badge as the kids - should have just used the same size on the XS and maybe S sizes.

Correct. We could win the treble in that and I still wouldn't buy it. It is not an Aston Villa kit and the original it is based on was never liked.

Marketing people- have they a clue?
