nufcjb Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 You would think if Puma have extended a 1 year deal with us, they should be releasing images of next season's kit around this time right? Even Liverpool who are switching to Nike have released theirs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Would reverse the black and white stripes to have it look more black-ish. The blue one looks too Les-tah to me. Seen some better concept ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the one shown is too plain blue for me. At least the one you showed has a distinct Newcaslte logo on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a pity it didn't come out while we were decent, otherwise it might have been remembered more fondly. Unfortunately it is associated with a team that fell from 2nd to 13th and lost a cup final. Seem to recall it was only worn once too (vs Leeds?) A decent team seems to make a kit more memorable....example the banana/custard cream kit. By every reasonable metric it's horrific to look at, but it was liked as it was associated with a good enjoyable season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Hate concept kits like. The fact they exist shows how badly designed the real ones are. They're really not designed at all TBH, they're just picked from a set of templates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 The thing I liked most about that dark blue/orange/green kit was the enlarged subtly imposed crest across the main body of the shirt. It's great when kits have something like that, looks stylish and really unique to the club. Our orange one this season does a pretty good job of it tbh.

adam1 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 What would be your dream kit maker if we were to swap as soon as possible? Nike or New Balance would be great. Umbro do fantastic kits too.

Cort Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 adidas for me as long as we're one of their premium teams. (Yeah I know their kits for Juve are rank this year but I'm sure they'll be over this phase soon enough) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it came out now (as adidas and not puma) pretty sure it would be liked...not maroon and blue hooped liked, but still popular. Fix the colour and its a winner. Although....change the orange and green for black and white, lighten up the purple/blue and there's a masterpiece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
