Disagree. A chevron is our identity. This is just a different take on it, and as usual with every single kit some will like it and some won't.

I hope every new kit release includes some form of chevron theme.

As long as you like it the rest of us have to go along with it?

Get some taste fella.

Didn't say anything remotely like that. Try harder.

No need. Your words tell their own story.

I didn't like the kit at first but I'm getting used to it . I suppose it's Ok, I've seen a lot worse.

I'm sure that Stevie Wonder and David Blunkett will love the new kit

Well, well, well. My mate showed me this at the boxing tonight and I was horrified. Now I’ve come home and seen this thread, that kits an absolute shocker. If the chevrons lined up it might have worked, the fact they don’t just makes the shirt too busy.

This has to be one of the worst kits we’ve had in my lifetime, and Hearn did pull out a few shockers, but made up for it with the he checked kit.

I won’t be buying it as you’d look like a right plank in that.

On a positive note the club badge looks ok on either kit imho.

I've never seen a dreadful sports shirt like that on sale even at a cheepo shop like Primark and Peacock, however TK Maxx might give them away at £4 each.

Dont buy it leave yourself open to people saying
anyone not willing to buy a shirt cos they dont like it arent REAL FANS.

Real Fans will buy the Shirt just to support the club.

Real fans aren’t crushed by the wheels of industry.

On the plus side the kids have said they like it.

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*** memories' would be a great one. I would forgive the badge if it had this.

So truly bespoke they were doing this kit 15 years ago

Are they the same kids priced out due to the massive price hike?

I doubt that that kit had the club motto engraved into the collar part though.

Had we had a Justin Edinburgh quote sown into ours no doubt our club would spin it as a unique kit and technically it is bespoke.

To be fair if you saw the away kit that kind of backs up Hummel's claim, don't think anyone else has that.

Wheels of Industry only turn because there is profit to be made.

Didnt they teach you that at No shirt Kn*b school ?

Without my glasses it'll look like they'll playing in a plain all red kit …………………. problem sorted

Forest Green Rovers kits are tremendous for more then one reason. Don't buy football shirts but tempted to get it.

You really think that's a nice kit.? If Orient had the same kit except in red and black I'm sure it would get slagged off on here.

Yep, think they are brilliant.
