New Away Kit

I suspect the photo is real but I would just like a bit more creativity and thought to go into future designs. We all moaned about the lack of a recognised manufacturer which to the club’s credit it fixed by bringing in puma, I’m sure we’re all happy with this. I just feel we could really make a statement with the shirt, going back to our tower power badge and introducing a creative design would be forward thinking. Obviously not something as garish as Citea’s third kit but a throwback to the iconic bass kit would be fantastic with a slight geometric design. Maybe for next year when we’re back in the championship eh 😉
 
Looks like other designs behind this top so interesting what they are..or are these all the designs that have been binned? Unlikely but would be funny if it was.

If it is the top it will be good to see the full strip on a player, then I will judge as presume tangerine shorts with white socks and tangerine trim? But not long to go before it is revealed
 
Should have used the Tower logo on the away kit , I think they have missed a trick there seeing as they seem to be pushing the Tower logo. A Tangerine logo on the white shirt is good and it looks nice and simple.

Totally agree. Saw something the other day where company have contacted BFC about a new Crest design. Tower one would be great, on kit, stadium etc...
 
Exactly what I thought it would be, a bland lazy template like Puma do with so many small clubs.

People seem to be surprised that it's a template, or that it's just the reverse of the home kit, which I think is bland too. What do people expect? Puma have done this for years and years. We're no different from all the other clubs in League One and Two who are mostly getting similar designs.

The outrage over a polyester top his hilarious!
 
Please don’t tell me that is the finished article, looks like a cheap T shirt you would get at some dodgy market stall. I expect it will be a lot smarter than what is in that photo when it is announced

Well said !!! I couldnt & still can't get the excitement over a major sports brand doing our kit ... like you say boring templates & more expensive ... the Errea kit last season was as good as it gets for a league 1 club ... Putting aside the delivery issues .... but that might have been to do the club & the new board?

More likely waiting for the sponsor to be sorted.

And it's always going to be a template. People wanted a big brand - me included. You get better quality, better standards. But for the volumes the club will sell, there's very little scope for individuality, especially if they are keeping the price relatively low as they are. At least we're fortunate to have a unique colour for the home shirts.
Puma themselves probably don;t make much from the shirts themselves- it's all about brand awareness for them, and the knock-on sales that fans will buy puma clothing, trainers etc to brand-match with the shirts.

Thats far too sensible post for here🤣

Pretty much bang on though.

For the record I quite liked Errea and thought most of their shirts were quite nice. Training gear wasn't the best though

I saw the new Rangers shirt the other day.. Boring made by some no mark manufacturer and £65 to boot.
 
I like it, although would have preferred us to use a different template. That said I'm pleased we are back in white/tangerine and will be buying one. Hopefully plenty others do the same and the club shop is successful arm of the business.
 
It’s a ‘safe’ kit, which reiterates that we are now a sensible, well run club. Nothing to be excited about, but professional.
