Has a bit of a late 80s early 90s vibe. Very good

I really like it. Hope it looks as good in real life as it does in these pics.

I also like the fact that the sponsor logo isn't absolutely massive.

Well done Umbro and the club.

I hope the 2nd and 3rd are as nice. Looks great.

Best kit since 2009. Like an amalgamation of kits from 85-92. Hopefully we don’t play like that.

The shirt is really nice, but spoilt with blue shorts and socks. Should be white.

Should always be white shorts at home but I’ll take a season like the last time we had blue shorts and socks for home games.

Put me down as a ‘not sure’. Not keen on the arm pattern shenanigans.

Instant impression is that I like that. It's way from the norm of plain claret / blue, but not too jazzy. Clean, white SpreadEx logo, no red in it is another tick from me.

I prefer white shorts personally... not fussed though.

Set us apart from Aston Villa and West Ham in style too.

I'm a fan.

I agree about the sponsors logo being less obtrusive.

I don’t suppose there is picture of the long sleeve version yet is there.

First kit in a decade or 2 that I've looked at and thought "that's quite smart"

It's a yes from me.

Quite looking forward to the away ones now.

Nice top. White shorts and socks would be better. As it has full blue sleeves and not the chopped off ones from last season my son can have one ! It will go with his white shirts and socks.

Hhmmm!
Don't like the sleeves pattern, Sponsors logo much better than that Chinese squiggle. Not too fussed about blue shorts and socks.

All in all it's OK no more than that.

Had a look at it on the official site and now I know it’s got a ‘micro eyelet back panel to wick away sweat’ I’m a definite fan.

I like the fact that the sponsor's logo is less obtrusive than in previous years. And I also like the majority of the shirt including the collar.

The jazzy sleeves however have for me stopped this shirt being one that I would buy.

Nice shirt, a bit different. The colours look a bit away from our usual mind you (darker main and lighter sleeves) but I'll wait until the 2nd/3rd come out before choosing which to go for

Shame most of the people who like it won't be buying it according to the sponsor thread

Agree with that.

Also agree with the people in the white socks and shorts camp - it's what I grew up with so heavily influenced by that, probably similar to how people who grew up with hooped socks really like those.

I thought this was Umbro’s last year as kit supplier? Unfortunately that doesn’t seem to be the case 🙁
“Over the next four seasons, Umbro will continue to produce all official Burnley playing kits, from the men’s and women’s first team, to youth and schoolboy level, as well as training products and leisurewear for players and supporters”.

The sleeve colour of blue doesn't seem to match the badge.

Not into blue shorts either.

Verdict: not sure yet.

There are about four different shades of blue on the sleeves, one of them must match surely!

I think they give it the 80’s look. I get what you mean but my son loves them - can’t stop talking about it - which is probably who they’re aiming these at.

Going down a storm on so social media.

A child in the 70’s but I love the hooped socks. Having worn out my Puma socks was hoping for a return this season, but guessing it wouldn’t happen I’ve ordered a teams worth (14 pairs) that will be this years winter wear.

Love the shirt body, great to see the return of a proper claret, need to see the sleeves in the flesh before I decide if they’ve spoilt their good work with the sleeves though.

They had this nice little detail posted to Twitter but then pulled the image down. Don't know what to read into that.

Plain sleeves, different sponsor and the old badge and we are looking at the 1982/83 Spall shirt after we won the third division.....

Will definitely be buying this one (obviously when it goes half price at Xmas, I’m not made of money!)

It’s a shocker.

Dont like raglan sleeves and the sleeves are too busy for me. Blue shorts and socks? No thanks. I’d prefer white shorts and hooped socks but I’d settle for white shorts and white socks.

All in all, I’m completely underwhelmed.

This season, I will mostly be wearing, my Peter Noble ‘V’ shirt.

I think it’s a really nice kit overall!

They’ve been sitting on these for awhile. Vyds, Woody, and McNeil without his right arm tattooed all give it away. The folks saying the shirt had been done for awhile were right!
