I don’t like it on first online look. Looks a bit cheap. Always prefer a collar on the shirt and the sponsor logo doesn’t go well with it. Give two washes before those letters start peeling.
my least favourite Hummel effort so far
Letters peeling.... a very good nod to the OSCA kit then!
Hoops, Yes. Stripes, No. The club badge sits on a stripe. I think it looks wrong. Duchatelet's CAFC won't see a penny of my money, so I won't see this kit in action.
Am I the only one on here who finds it strange that grown men want to wear replica football (or even cricket) shirts? It's even worse when you see them somewhere away from a football game, e.g. on a beach, or Oxford Street.
I know I will be in a very small minority but please someone on here tell me I am not the only one.

I buy them and I play in them as well as attending games in them.
Wouldn't wear one out casually though.. that's a bit too cringe.
did the original eighties one have like a white/grey stubble all over it that you could pull and and reduce the kit in size , like pulling a thread on a jumper and watching it unravel
or have I reached Roland’s level of wibbleness and just need to place a couple of pencils up my nose to complete the look
Out of interest do the players have a say on the kit?
Seriously?
Point being, did they really approve it!
Yeah course, and they also get a say on catering options including the Vegan options.
And one of Lockyer’s first jobs was to access the pot holes in the car park. Williams is upset he wasn’t asked - this is why he hasn’t decided if he wants to sign up again.

Not such a stupid question. Sure I read somewhere that Neville Southall had the yellow(?) Everton keeper kit changed to black as he thought he was too visible to strikers in yellow. Black meant he blended in to crowd a bit more.
Having designed a few playing shirts (not football related by the way), I was happy to allow player's input into the comfort/fabric used, but it was a no-no where the actual design was concerned. If they had input into the design, then half would have liked the finished garment, and half would have hated it. With no player input, they all would have hated it - which helped with the unity in the dressing room!

yeah that and the fact yellow put 3 stone on him just standing there trying to breath in.

Would've bought any of the Hummel kits had RD not been here. Looking forward to the away offering.

I’ve never liked that tribal thang.

Typical Paddy Power, everyone retweets this giving them lots of publicity...then the real shirt is unveiled!
