Any fucker puts blue trim on our home shirt can get to fuck. Has absolutely no place on a home shirt. It honestly hurts my eyes.

 

It really is awful like. Especially the horrible Fun88 sky blue

Always remember that one coming out and everyone raving about it when it was previewed in The Chronicle, then when it came out and the blue was completely different to what it looked like in the preview. Just remember my dad (a printer) saying you couldn't blame it on the printers and they must have been given the wrong colour key or something. :lol: Class story, eh. 

 

Was still absolutely lush like, but extremely uncomfortable. Itchy neck, abrasive on the nipples and clicky material.

I had that one with Asprilla on the back and as mentioned above there I experienced the same. Horrible and itchy to wear. Was never a fan of the massive v-neck either, but otherwise it was a nice top. Bit of a shine on it.  
 

I always liked the royal blue 93/95 away shirt as like the 95/97 home shirt, it came with good memories. The 98/99 was a similar colour from the ‘sexy football’ era.

Was my first toon shirt that denim one, my dad bought it for me when he was in London on work and I used to wear it every weekend. Itchy as fuck. Particularly uncomfortable in Florida heat :lol:

It's strange how on the footage of them at the Adidas hq they showed every strip bar the 95/96 home which is the best one. Then that lad was talking about 3 iconic black stripes. As already mentioned earlier, I much prefer more, thinner stripes.  I hope he doesn't get the final say.

An up to date version of these 3 is all we need for 3 to 4 seasons without any change. Thank you. Good night. Thread locked. The end.

I think they look like pyjamas when the stripes are thin or a prisoner of war uniform. The 3 striped shirt sounds like the one we wore when Ba and Cisse played for us. 
 

Yep, there’s no doubt about it and no different opinion allowed I’’m afraid. This is clearly by a mile the best home shirt. Case closed. Shutdown the forum.

Agreed. Personally I also hate thin stripes and I much prefer the middle stripe to be white. This is key whether you have this thickness stripes or wider. I wouldn't go for wider stripes when it comes to Newcastle but this is also fantastic imo https://store.paokfc.gr/en/episimi-fanela-paok-aspromayri-rige-18-19-461-008600.html (would have been perfect if not for the fact the whole freaking back is black :(

 

So let's recap the key points that make the shirt above perfect:

  • Right width/amount of stripes
  • Middle stripe is white
  • Stripes go all the way up, i.e. no black or white shoulders
  • Stripes on the sleeves. On top of that, the adidas stripes make the sleeves even better (works fantastically on the shorts as well. I think it's better than plain coloured shorts)
  • Goes without saying, stripes down the back. Box is ok, as long as at least SOME of the back is striped.

I don't know how much you can replicate that 96 shirt. FIrst of all that sponsor logo also made the shirt and the wide shirts of the time allowed for more horizontal space to fit 4 black stripes of decent width.

I agree with all above and this is actually quite a smart jersey. Would definitely be nice with our crest on. The point on the patches covering the shoulders or down the sides has always irritated me (which doesn’t take much). Just looks better watching the game when you see the stripes going over like that.

Im seeing a lot of the Juve shirts on holiday and unpopular opinion alert…… it’s quite grown on me

 

(not that I’d want it for us, but maybe that style as a one off)


Ah right. Sounds like an immediate banning from all communication to me :)

Bairns been patiently waiting for the blue away keeper, is there a reason it's not being released?  Shorts etc have been on sale for ages, just not that top.

 Because Castore are absolutely shite and can’t handle the demand, I’m absolutely certain that’s how we have managed to end the contract early

The Asics blue paint brush away top doesn't get love it deserves. Maybe because it's too close timeline wise the legendary hooped away shirt, but I honestly rank it as our second best ever away shirt. 


It looked good but it was horrifically made, I think ASICS ended up offering refunds or replacements to everyone who bought it if my memory serves me right. I was but a nipper back then after all, but ended up with a replacement McEwans lager home shirt instead after it destroyed itself by clicks

This is the 24/25 Argentina shirt that leaked a while ago. Knowing that adidas use templates, and that this has the three bold stripes that were mentioned in the Amazon doc, I think there is a very high chance this will be the NUFC design with black in place of blue.
