Why do we go dark away when the home is already dark?
There should be some rule that says if your home is a dark colour the away must be light and vice versa
A third shirt shouldn’t be needed but understand why clubs want them (£)

Confirmed where?
I've always thought that a fairly simple white shirt with claret and blue trim always looks smart.

It's a few years since we've had a dark away kit, isn't it? Plus I don't see why it's an issue. There's no reason we couldn't play in navy or black, for example against teams we'd need to play in away kits (reds, clarets)

I wasn’t saying we always go dark away, just that it feels an odd thing to do.
Maybe it’s as I’ve got older and eyesight not as good as use to be, but sometimes find it hard to differentiate between the two especially if it’s a bright day or on far side in the show of a stand

Will be a darker blue, but hard to replicate on the creator I use.

Looks good to me save a smaller type face for the sponsors name.

Hopefully. Also white shorts either home. And claret shorts, blue socks with the white shirt.
Not a fan of the away kit.

Nothing has been confirmed as far as I know but I posted some considerable time ago that the second and third kits would be black and white

Absolutely. Look tidy and acceptable at this size. I can see them being 50-100% larger in reality unfortunately.

Brown and Purple halves with light green shorts and avocado and turquoise hooped socks would be my preference.

Nothing is ever 100% with ALK, may be changed to red white and blue to appeal to the US market.

Going by what other "in the know" posters have said (such as looks like villa's kit last season, full blue sleeves, etc.) and what we know, this is a version I created of what I could invisage it looking like (included hooped socks as that's just my presence but expect boring white socks in reality!)

Not a fan of the 'Villa' kit so I would be happy with the top three kits.
Others claiming to be 'itk' said it would be a shirt more like the one Foshiznik has posted.

Ok, so white and black was already known and nothing has been confirmed as stated by the OP. The shirts are mock ups, so what exactly is the point of this thread?

These colours have been confirmed by the person I speak with in the club, and Bristol Street Motors showed them to the world yesterday...

I've been assured by one of my friends in the fancy seats that the socks are hooped.

All being well they will be revealed this coming Wednesday at 9am, possibly earlier if a certain thing we're finalising happens, but that part is doubtful.
Not sure on sales but generally it's not much longer to wait after the reveal.

If they’re anything like the PNE shirt prices, I won’t be buying 1.

Foshiznik's kit isn't a million miles away. It does look like the villa kit in my opinion.
I thought the away was white and third was black (with a brighter colour trim that might be popular with our female fans). Maybe they've switched them.

Just spotted this on the club shop website. ‘Welcome to The Longside’ seems to the theme of the home shirt? Picture of the Longside incorporated within the shirt?

Regardless of anything else it's lovely to see white shorts and hooped socks, I really hope we're going with that combo.

No, the first one is Claret, the second one is black and the third one is white, but the actual design is apparently going to be different according to some
itk types, more like the regular Aston Villa type kit we usually use.

They look exactly the same to me!

I usually can tell difference in colour but can’t categorise them to a definite one but those two shades (one in my case!) have completely blown my brain!
