    I have not bought a shirt since we’ve been kitted out by Puma as I thought the previous kits we’ve had from em (barring last season’s away and third kits) have been quite naff and were the exact same templates of other teams being supplied by Puma.

    However I think both this season’s home and away kits are absolute belters, so I’m definitely thinking of buying a shirt just can’t decide which one yet. Must say though I’m a big fan of the new home shorts they remind me of the shorts from 2008 FA Cup run.

    The shorts are more or less the same as the 15/16 season are they not? Just with an angled ‘wedge’ shape rather than a straight thick stripe?

    There’s not a lot they can do with the home strip other than vary between v neck, crew neck, collar or no collar etc. This having the crest in the fabric is a nice touch, but I’m loving the black kit tbh.

    See the link for the shorts, very similar, much more similar than the ones modelled above by Brian Howard to my eye.

    Anyway, this the last year of the Puma/Genesis deal isn’t it? Depending how we do this season we could be in much worse kits next season! Anyone remember red flag or koala?

    I don't buy the teams shirts anymore (actually, the last one I bought was the 1990-91 Shaw Carpets plain red with white trim), but Im 100% behind the new home shirt again.
    Ive never bought an away shirt and to be honest I don't understand the appeal to them. And I absolutely hate black as an away kit colour, thats why Ive got no time whatsoever for this new away kit this season.

    Have we created a new 3rd choice kit by the way, or are we going to use last seasons white n dark green away kit for that ?.

    So thats a YES then is it, to the question that I asked... about last seasons white n dark green kit being used as our possible 3rd kit this season. :)

    Seriously Menai mate, Im a fan of our traditional 1981 style plain white n black away kit, and I don't know why we don't stick with that or something like that more often. I hate the black colour kit and I don't see the point in it, regardless of whether its got some interesting poncey red flashes/lines across the shirt..

    I like both the home and away shirts this year. I'm actually tempted to buy the away shirt, it looks great and I'd be far more likely to wear it casually than the red.

    Always preferred having collars on the shirt. But even without one, the away kit is still neat and tidy.

    That was our away kit last season not our 3rd kit

    Our 3rd kit is last years 3rd kit which was the navy blue one. I can't see when we will ever use it considering its a direct clash with our black away kit anyway which just goes to show I was right that it was kept just to appease supporters as they knew they wouldn't have anything to sell all summer so the limited stock they had left of that kit they just said was a 3rd kit for next year too

    Err I didn't say that it was our 3rd kit last season, I know it was our 2nd kit and that the all dark/navy thing was the 3rd one. :p
    And along those same lines, Im guessing we'll go with the all white n dark green kit when we go away to Bradford soon.

    Actually yeah ignore me I've just looked and you're right it's the away kit being used as a third kit not last seasons third kit being continued.
