New Kits

[amineken22]

You're not being serious Dani, are you?
Is there such a thing as a football uniform? It's been altered/ changed so much over the years, how can you even distinguish what is and what's not. It's merely another promotion tool, you know. It's good thing when it looks appealing to the supporters, it sells more.

I like it. Although it is a bit plain and reminds me of current Arsenal away kit it at least doesn't look like they are wrapped in plastic bags. It actually looks like it is a shirt made from fabric.

No mate, I'm do one that asks, are you serious?

When you see a football shirt you know it is one. Take an simple example.

Even if you take every logo and sponsor off you still know this is something meant for sport usage, it has that sports technological feeling to the designs, seams and materials.

Now that that Werder and take the logos out, looks like something bought as regular clothing, you would never think it has some sport usage.

And that is what I hate, I don't care if it sells more or less I want it to look like something related to the sport, and Nike is the lone king of doing the opposite of that these days.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. Since when does the technology or the gear make the sport? I do care about the fabric, but it doesn't matter to me if it's "ClimaCool" or "ClimaLight"; if it's "TechFit" or just "Regular" fit. That's all superficial.

That Werder kit looks plenty fine. I'd be proud to see it on my team's players or on myself, but I guess it's all very subjective, isn't it?

PS: This is how a Football top should look like

I never said it makes the sport, I said I personally hate it when it looks like regular non-sportive clothing, and that's how that Werder kit looks like even if you like it.

I also explained why I mentioned the cotton, it was associated with the polo design making these things combined look even more like regular clothing. I don't care either if it's climacool or dri-fit or whatever, there is much more on it and I do care about what the uniforms transmit to be honest.

I don't wanna see a movie about astronauts and have them using pajamas in space even if it had the same technological appeal, I want them to use gear that looks like proper gear for it because that makes the atmosphere better.

And yes kits have changed though the years, but so have boots and all the rest, it's just stupid to have a shirt that looks like a polo top together with a pink extremely technological boot like most players use these days, I like things to match and make sense together.

That's my point

PS: And I do like vintage kits too, love this one:

[MadbaLL]

that werder kit is boring.

 

[S-NipE]

I'm with Daniel on Werder, that looks nothing like being tailored for a player but more for a representative.

And why are they advertising it with a commentary on that Robben goal against ManU some years ago? Are they out of own memorable events in the near past?

 

[Daniel_Juve]

They sure are, what are they going to show after what they did to Schaaf and selling all their players? :LOL

If I had the money I would buy the club just to close it and end this nonsense.

 

[gonalois]

Juventus away kit is a Polo

 

[Baxter]

Even more interesting is how the German clubs (Gladbach, BVB) get unique designs and templates from Kappa while the Italian clubs (reminding it's an Italian brand) get the generic stuff.

Kappa have a german division with own designers. That's why Borussias has/had cool and unique designs, while italian designs are more conservative (maybe too much).
Same thing happens in South America, just take a look at Tigre's kit posted some days ago

Tigre's kit is just a pain in the eyes.

Werder away kit leaked

 

[fib91]

 

[S-NipE]

Adidas is close to sign contract with Adidas :shock:

@Werder: Isn't that the kit they (and, in a similar fashion, Atletico) used in 2012/2013, only with vertical stripes this time?

 

[Jamezinho]

Another one out of the Nike recycle bin.

 

[fib91]

And that's all these Werder kits are worth,both of them

 

[ThomasGOAL]

 

[fib91]

Throw that to the bin too.

 

[Damjan]

One of the worst Milan kits I've ever seen.

@Werder: Isn't that the kit they (and, in a similar fashion, Atletico) used in 2012/2013, only with vertical stripes this time?

Worst. They are recycling their own kits.

 

[Cuky]

And here is red Werder kit....uhhh sorry, it is Twente

 

[Jamezinho]

For fuck's sake.

 

[Cuky]

Bigger Milan + rear side

Spoiler

Watford home kit

Spoiler

Apparently they couldn't decide between black and red shorts, so they will use both throughout the season, depending on which clash less with opponent.


St. Mirren home kit

Spoiler

 

[user name 99]

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THAT PIECE OF SHIT MILAN WILL USE!!!!!!

 

[S-NipE]

Worst. They are recycling their own kits.

Exactly that kit was what I meant.

@Milan: Jeez, Adidas. What is that?

 

[S-NipE]

More news:

St. Mirren Home:

Spoiler

Watford Home and GK:

Spoiler

And a new contract for Hummel:

Spoiler

St. Mirren looks somehow fresh to me (and like Udinese), Watford is too plain, that's not really a "design", but a colored shirt with logos and for Hummel: They had some nice kits over the last years, but the majority was cheap crap, let's see, what they'll produce for them.

Milan: Super super horrible!!

Twente: Awesome. I really like it!
