The one certainty is that it will look awful on a middle aged man with grey hair and a beer belly.

It won't look that good on a child with spaghetti hoops and Ribena down the front of it either.

What about those of us with a beer belly and no hair? Are we OK?

We were actually sponsored by the CO-OP but whoever put the letters on the shirts got them the wrong way round.

Poor POCO missed out. They were on our shirts when we had the two cup runs in 82/83 and got lots of tv coverage but we weren't allowed to carry the sponsor on shirts when we were televised.

Would love that with a Claret V and minus the button collar.

Claret and Blue stripe down the center like the PSG shirt?

Colburn_Claret · Post by **Colburn_Claret** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 9:20 am

I'm sat in the hotel in Croatia, trying to fight the Internet signal, just to see what the new shirt looks like.
When they said the reveal was Sunday, I didn't think they meant bloody tea time......

I'll have to have a long walk instead, it's almost like a maternity waiting room

Please not a band across the chest with Clarets written on it.

If no V then pinstripe would be my choice.

No .. it kind of resembles a mid-eighties Villa away kit ..

Well you're getting warm ... forget the V ... forget a single wide band ...

Think stripes made up of words.

hoops ... the devil is in the detail ... slightly later Villa kit I was thinking of

Hoops?

So possibly like the villa shirt below but maybe also a take on the dortmund shirt - imagining as white with claret stripes which are made up of the words clarets

Swap the home and away shorts and socks over.

Imagine the 'retro' resale value in 20 years.

Buying it.

It does have a late 80s early 90s look about it.

The pin stripe is great!

Agree with the idea of switching the kecks with the home kit.

The best thing about the away kit?

Defour is featured in the promo - it means he's staying

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 11:36 am

I really like it and don't often get immediately positive about an away shirt.

I do agree with burnmark on the shorts. I'd have actually preferred claret shorts with this shirt and had the white shorts with the home shirt. But I really do like the shirt. I hadn't seen it previously, been told what it was going to be but I had this idea that the claret hoops across would be thicker than they are.

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 11:39 am

I presume we'll be retaining the blue kit as will need it at Southampton.

clarethomer · Post by **clarethomer** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 11:40 am

Looks smart

ClaretAL · Post by **ClaretAL** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 11:40 am

Looks great and the "Clatets" pin stripe is a great addition. As far as I know, a first on any strip to have an alphanumeric pinstripe?

We aren't going to do three kits but, if required, we will use the away kit from the previous season. I hadn't checked on the other home kits but I would therefore assume that, if required, we will wear the blue at Southampton.

nice. I wish the home kit had blue pin stripes to match

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sun Jul 30, 2017 11:44 am

Yes, think it'll definitely be needed, Southampton gone back in time with their kit this season.
