I'd imagine as the home and away are quite "fussy" the third is probably just going to be a plain black shirt, with a collar, with metallic gold badge, logo and sponsor.
Regardless of how it looks (and I actually quite like it), I'm assuming the quality will be as terrible as the home shirt. Massively disappointed as thought Reebok would be a step up.
Never thought I's say this but the quality of the material of the Castore shirts was much better (excluding the logos constantly falling off).
Are you guys washing it at the recommended 30 degrees?
I always washed the Castore shirts at 30 degrees - after literally one 30 degree wash, the sponsor came of the black away kit we had the season before last, and the badge fell off a pair of training jogging bottoms.
But the material itself was far better than the Reebok home kit!
Can I buy it anywhere else other than the UK? Bloody tax puts me off.
Absolutely. Bloody brexit tax has stopped me ordering anything from the UK. I feel loathed to pay virtually double on an order and just go without or wait until my next trip to England.
What with that and ETAs, the UK is making quite a name for itself (and not a nice one).
I like the shirt and socks Don’t think much of the shorts. Love the badge. I’d like to get rid of the concentric circles altogether and work on this as a new badge design with CAFC ornately integrated into into it - like a mix of two 1970s logos I remember.
I really like the look of it. Will probably get this over the home shirt this season. My only complaint with all football shirts is that they never look as good on me as on a professional athlete.
Designed by Reebok, the bespoke kit takes inspiration from the club’s roots. The all-over tonal aquatic blue, white, and grey fish scale pattern pays tribute to legendary local fishmonger Arthur Bryan. Charlton’s nickname, The Addicks, originates from the haddock meals Bryan provided to players - and he was also believed to be one of the club’s earliest sponsors.
Agree with whoever said overall the Reebok kits are too fussy. But the previous Castore kits, as nice as they were, were plain so it’s a bit of a change I guess.

"Is that a J Cloth?"
Both shirts too fussy for me but I don't buy them so I'm not the target audience.
Like the reference to Addicks and Arthur Bryan. If you know your history.
Much prefer the badge to be the badge but just the hand and sword has been used a lot recently. I think it dilutes the "brand" but hey.
Lets see if the black and gold is better or worse.
Anybody spot this cameo in the video? It's Ed Warrick, our Group Finance Director
EDIT: Infant away now live !
Not a fan. But then it's not aimed at me I suppose.

Don't often buy shirts but this looks like a good one for wearing on a nice holiday in the sunshine 🌞😎
Hopefully we get a naff 3rd shirt, I could do without more outlay.
