As always I hold my hands up to the fashionistas on here, but I'll reserve my judgement until I've seen them worn by the players.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much going on in the home kit. Its like they couldnt decide what to do with it so they put all the ideas onto one shirt... different patterns, different materials by the looks of it between the body and the sleeves, dont even get me started on the collar at the back and the go faster stripes ont he sides - what the hell is that about...

Who the hell at Nike sat there and thought yeah that looks proper quality... good work lads...

The away shirt i dont mind but like surely you have your home and away kit templates and like standard colours then the third one is where you can try stuff...

Plain white shirt. How difficult can it be?! I mean this past seasons home kit was the best for a while I thought. It just looked kinda classy, plain white, navy trim. But this one looks like something my 5 year old designed.

Still better then the gradient we had last season. Can't believe we wore those with white shirts in Champions League final...

When they are finally worn by the players, many of you will be gushing.

The replicas and actual kits are always very different, so I expect them to look very nicely fit onto the lads.

Take the yellow off the home one, put a simple collar on it (wtf is that cross-over shit?), and make the stripe down the side a straight blue one, and that’s a pretty decent shirt. Looks like they’ve let the work experience kid design in.

Probably the same reason we got some absolute humdingers when we had an exclusive with UA, some daft **** at the club signs them off.

I'm far from their target audience though. Let's be honest we're unlikely to ever sell many in parts of Asia as it's not red, our target export market seems to be the US of egg ball and Canada.

Personally as I keep saying do what you like (within reason) to the away, third and GK stuff but for the love of doG stop doing lairy stuff with the home shirt.
Now there's rumoured to be a 4th money grab shirt.

Ironically the shirt to look most like a "Lilly Whites" Spurs shirt will probably end up at bastard Leeds (*spits in bucket*)

Someone up there hates me; Spurs miss out on pretty much every trophy in football on the back of a bastard of a season, West Ham avoid the drop again, 'Pool win the league, Man City dodge a ban, Chelsea wake up with an academy of talent, reduction in transfer ban and pockets of cash, Leeds get promoted. Probably a bunch of other stuff too (aside from the globe being on fire) and we get a bunch of horrid shirts.

I hate watching matches with teams in green kits!

I say it every year I wish the home kit had Navy Socks. The 3/4g pitches destroy white socks for both my lads so have not purchased a home kit for either since 2016. Which basically leaves the green kit as the only viable option for them both as yellow is well...yellow!

I like the home kit. Hate round neck, looks shit.

Agreed re the round necks. Also they kinda make my double chin bigger, bloody accentuates the hell out of my double chin.

Pointy collars are the way to go

the quality of them looks horrific... these pics are worst yet, what on earth is going on with the home shorts neck at the back?!

Yea it kinda floats off the neck and looks quite uncomfortable.

Hard to believe this is Nike stuff.

The home kit has the look of a champion.




Something I always feel in the beginning of each season. :unsure:

I can't get my head around how having five colours on the home shirt gets through any quality checking process OR INDEED whoever is meant to be protecting the brand heritage and image of THFC.
These shirts are trashing our visual identity. All international brands know you are constantly vigilant to protect your visual identity

That bit is my whole issue, it's not all on Nike it can't be (purely based on UA doing the similar) they submit say 5 designs of each kit most will have one element of whatever that years gimmick will be across all of their football shirts, they submit them to the club and club should be saying "no" "no" "no" "yep" and "yep" for each kit that then goes back to Nike who then submit a couple of revisions incorporating the "yep's" in theory resulting in a good product that suits all parties various criteria; our issue seems to be which ever blind dingbat is currently in charge of final sign off sees the first 5 samples and goes "yep" "yep" "yep" "yep" "yep" did I say "yep?" oh well "yep!" that goes back to Nike who go oh FFS.

Actually what they look like and it sounds very Spurs; are designs agreed by committee and if that's the same as our transfer committee that'd explain the usual one decent shirt in three.

"Oh I like the stupid grey pattern" "I like the collar" "I like green" "I like zig zags" "I want to look like a print toner"
