22/23 Kit

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Yeah we've had one outstanding Adidas shirt (19/20 home), loads of mergh and a good handful of absolute shite

? the pink and black kits were class

Pink kit was an piss poor shade of pink and was a template designed for Germany to mimic an old kit of theirs. People loved it because it was pink, fair enough but not for me

 

the black was just crap though 

[kingkisnorbo]

Pretty much all of the Adidas kits bar the home 19/20 have been middling to shite.
 

Not worth being with a well known kit provider as they limit how much you can design when your not a high graded club in their book. Plenty of much better kit manufacturers who we could be with.

Has anybody thought that the templates may actually be saving us from our club having free reign over designing the kit?

This one was decent tbf.

Wonder with how many sweat shops for want of a better word that are still in Leicester, how much legit scope there is for bringing back Fox Leisure

 

I know it doesn't help with global marketing and brand but nowdays with online ordering, you would be able to keep 100% of the profits and do it all in house without the need for the likes of Adidas or Nikes distribution network.

 

Right I'll start drinking now

Fair point. Just think the scope for having such wank kits would be narrowed if we had a interesting design partner. Kappa/Umbro is the dream.

I dread to think how bad our kits would come out if they were done in house, look how crap our media department is 

 

Template kits aren’t really a problem for me, unless the template is crap of course

Pink  one was great

First new city shirt in the land of the free?

Judging by the stance, is he running for the leader of the conservatives?

Those collars look so damn annoying to play in.

Mine came today. The badge is sickeningly bad. A shame because it's otherwise a beauty

Does no one at adidas or the club review these samples before they are approved?

surely they could see the issues with the badge if it’s that bad? That’s a very important detail on the whole product they cannot screw that up!

Online orders aren't packed manually I'd imagine. Straight from warehouse distribution into packaging and then out to the recipient.

It’s not that bad though is it. Just different for one year and not in the original colours. Many teams do the monochrome badge and I guarantee their fans aren’t as pedantic about it as we’ve all been. It took some growing on me, but it really doesn’t bother me now. Think a lot of us overreacted. Even the fanny flap collar is alright, but that was a bigger issue for me than the badge.

I think had the badge not been the colour of korma and maybe just white or more of a gold it wouldn’t have been as bad tbf

It’s not though… it’s gold, not pale orange. I’ve got the kit in front of me right now and I’ve never seen a korma that colour. Also, why have you got such a hatred for korma? 😂😂

Anyone with a half decent palette should dislike korma tbf

Yeah 2020/21. The only time I remember us wearing it was Athens away. We must have worn it more but the maroon was more popular.
