Arsenal's New Kits...

[eric515]

Not bad. You know you have hit the big time when naturally occurring substances like oxygen want to be your shirt sponsor. Actually, considering who the guy is that makes oxygen, that's a pretty shrewd business move by the Gunners brass. :)

Ok, just so this isn't completely a BS humor thread (the BS doesn't stand for Big Soccer), tell me whose kits you love, and whose kits you hate in the EPL??

A kit I really like is Leeds away blue kits...very sharp. A couple of kits I am not too fond of are WHU and Aston Villa...all that fuscia, pink, or whatever it is, makes me nervous... :P

..ya but would you want the side you support to have a big fat goose egg on the front of your jersey?

You gotta be kidding. Arsenals kits are the worst I have ever seen. I saw it it a Eurosport magazine and I burst out laughing. It is even 20 dollars less than all the other kits.

If you mean the away kit, then you are correct. That is terrible. I have no problems with the home kit.

I have to say that the new kit pales in comparison to last seasons. That kit ruled! But I know that I'll break down and get the new one with all the dressings.

There should be a rule on BS where you cannot start a thread about kits unless you have a pic to post.

[Maczebus]

Not good.

It's one thing giving the club huge amounts of money to have your name put on the front of the shirts.
But I don't feel the entire shirt should be linked to the sponsor.

Yes I know I sound like an proper 'stick in the mud', but frankly I don't think it's a trend that should continue. Even though I have my suspicions that it will.

And I'm not clever enough to put a picture in directly but here's a link.

If somebody GAVE me one I wouldn't wear it. I would cut the srest off of the jersey and sew it onto a T-shirt.

I'm not a fan of the new kits this year and won't be buying one. The blue one is ridiculous and what the stripe across the lower back is about is anyone's guess. I liked the gold one last season, we should have kept that as we only had it for a year.

[Ian Lozada]

I'll say the same thing I did about last year's gold kits: When you're winning, they all look good. Especially with those little gold patches on the sleeves.

[eric515]

Okay, so we have established that everyone hates the Gunners away kits...but who else has kits that just make you wanna puke?? All biases aside...

[Gar7]

ManU's gold change strip. It sucked!!! But the Arse's new kit is crap!

[Gar7]

Also, every strip that Nike put out for MLS teams the first two years of MLS' existence.

Here's the pic (of the home kit):

I think ManU's golden kit was pretty snazzy. Which, of course, doesn't compel me one bit to like the team.

The worst was Munich's away kit for the CL. It reminds me of the English kit at WC86(?), which was scientifically proven to be less visible from the corner of the eye (and certainly didn't help the very good English team of the time either). Stupid, stupid.

Then there's ugly. Might as well ask Prada to make your kit (maybe some day David Beckham will).

Of course, hommage to old-school is always appreciated (except for the fabric).

Here's the new Real München BL away kit. Let the flame wars begin.

I love Arsenal's home jersey from last season. Maybe cuz I'm one of the few sad Dreamcast owners left but that's besides the point. I really like Chelsea's blue jersey and Leeds white jersey. Blackburn needs a change and West Ham has to get rid of that nasty color scheme. This year's Arsenal though. . . . .don't like it. The away one I can't even put in words.
