No Bukta, Le Coq or Patrick ?

I just looked at the Premier League and Championship suppliers and went off that. Le Coq are class though, mainly because of this beauty:

Just had a look on Historic Football Kits to remind myself, but I didn't really dislike any of our Adidas kits, to be honest, and would love them back as kit maker/supplier.

 

And aye, 2007-2009 kit was first to have the panel on the back for the number, if you forget the shield on the back of the 1997-99 shirt, which I thought was even worse than the black or white panel.

Got mine off Pro-Direct Soccer, it's even better on person. I actually can't think of a better designed shirt, atleast ones in which I don't have an emotional attachment too anyway.

We've had some pretty awesome away kits. Hated that 97-99 orange green striped one at the time but think it's stunning now... probably cos it was massively unique and had a good sponsor

Hate how bad our sponsors have been since Northern Rock.

I still love Umbro kits, they’re absolute masters of simple, respectful design.  I’ll try and forget the ‘barcode’ kit from the early ‘90s (not exactly an era of particularly dapper kits generally).  Brentford’s home kit is perfect Umbro - no faff, no frills - standard size stripes and a simple collar

 

I’m sure whatever conservatism is in me is expressed via football.  I never feel like this about clothing and traditions outside of the game :)

They've been consistently class the last few years, like. If it was purely aesthetics and nowt else I'd have Umbro every day of the week. Sadly, they're probably not going to deliver the type of deal we're after.

I thought the penultimate Adidas kit - the one we got relegated in, was proper shit. Worst in my life along with  the Puma spikey one. Their last one was decent though. 
 

(I think it was shit cos of how it looks, not the association. Too much black, shiny material, dodgy collar, badge in the middle)

 

i think this year’s is good.
