NUFC kits & merchandise


Recommended Posts

Personally, I like that they've tried something different, as ultimately there are only so many simple designs you can do, but do think this is a bit a miss. I think if the arms where just pure black, and the back had the stripes go to the top, than it'd be infinitely better.

While their manufacturing might be better, Our Adidas kit designs outside of the outlier that is 95-97 aren't as good as Castore's.


design wise Castore was so much better than adidas. Most recent adidas Newcastle shirts are just a lazy recreation of older Newcastle adidas shirts.

In fairness, the last couple of Castore home shirts were just recreations too.... 60/70s and mid-80s respectively.

I suppose the home shirt will mostly be a recreation of something but how many away/third shirts have adidas lazily copied from? At least 3 over 2 seasons

Adidas know what they are doing, much better than any of us on here. This shirt will sell as many as they are expecting, that simple, that complicated.

Hope, expectations and size of fanbase is what shifts shirts, not marketing genius.  They’ll shift fewer this summer than the last couple and it won’t be due to the design being fucking rancid.

What are they doing? that godawful kit has been all over the internet for weeks, just fucking announce it :lol:

It would be awesome if they'd been trolling everyone with fakes for the last few months and come out with something completely different. 

 

Apologies....optimism grabbed hold for a minute.

 

No debate its god awful. As many have said it must be hard work to make a kit look this bad. However optimism striking again....if we somehow won the title wearing it, it would be remembered fondly. I recall the 95-97 kit was not  well received at the time and the maroon hoops were called a rugby shirt. Time remembers it well now

If it wasnt for the humongous white square on the back, I'd like it.

 

Next year I predict they'll make the lines diagonal 😬

 

  Can you not just take it to the club shop and ask them to print

 

iiiiiiiii

111111

 

As name and number to hide the white square?

Aye that patch on the back is hideous. Makes it throughly pointless trying something different.

 

Only “plain” back I’d accept is the 1998/99 shield.
