Revealing kit! Does that mean crotchless shorts and see through shirts.

Got a feeling the playing kit will be decent, at least New Balance have some designs which aren't plain like Nike.

Saw that Cambridge have gone with Hummel and have a chevron design:
https://www.cambridge-united.co.uk/news ... veal-1920/

Hummel promise 'truly bespoke kits' and feature their motto 'United in Endeavour' inside the collar.

It might have come too late but it would be great if we could have something related to Justin on the inside of ours, 'For the f*cking memories' would be a great one. I would forgive the badge if it had this.

Be interested to see what they've chosen. Please don't let it have that badge on it though...

The Cambridge kit looks ace.

Although looks as if that may have the cheapy stick on badge too? Difficult to tell, they’ve obviously not focused on it!

I like how the chevron carries across everything - on the training kit as well. Am certain that if we had gone for that on ours it would have gone down well, stick on badge or not.

Their away kit is quite funny, but was voted on by the fans so has some connection with the past:

That away kit is really bad, but so bad it works!

How the heck are Cambridge bloody United able to get individually designed kits like this whilst we have to rely on the stock options? :roll:

I prefer traditional plain kits myself; "jazzy" shirts look cheap and nasty...

We will all know at 3 pm when the kit is revealed, think it's a darker shade of red from the teaser on twitter.

Apparently NB do offer this. On their site they claim they do.

They have designs like this on their templates, but hard to see it working with Dream Team logo:

New shirts are horrible,. Staggered chevrons. Red/dark red.

Missed the chance to do something classy and classic.

Initial thought is that I'm not a fan of this personally. If the chevrons were the same colour it would have been a nice kit. Guess I'll give it a while to see what I think when I'm used to it.

As others have said previously the badge just looks awful. Reminds me of the sort of edible paper designs that you used to get on the top of children's cakes.

Actually quite like after looking for a minute, wasn't keen at first. Whatever you think can't say it's not unique.

Good grief. Looks like they've been run over by a tractor.

Dan Happe is going to look like a maypole in that.

Agree if the Chevrons were uniform would look better.

That's disappointing.

If we see the concept kits thread (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=705) basically I have done a mock-up which is more or less the same. (I still prefer the white sleeves).

Combined with the badge, I ain't feeling this at all. Was it either a shortage of time, or money?

I don't buy the 'tradition' line that the club are justifying, it just happened that New Balance had a design which featured it and we took a ride on the back of that.
