By now I'm sure most of the contributors to this section of BigSoccer have seen the Bild image of our possible/probable jersey for next season. For all those in the German-speaking world, what has the reaction been thus far? From reading Keith's list and Manoj's site it would seem responses haven't been particularly good, does that seem to sum up most people's feelings?

The new jersey sux ....thats all you need to know

Nike gave a damn about tradition ... BVBs Colors are BLACK AND YELLOW!! Not ********ing white and Yellow BVB should search for a new jersey designer and sue Nike for producing that shit.

Nike's new jerseys are either excellent or horrible, nothing in between.

Excellent:
US National Team shirts
Mexico shirts
Brazil shirts
Holland shirts
Portugal shirts
New Arsenal shirt

Awful and/or Just Plain Weird:
New Barcelona shirt
New Juventus shirt
New Hertha BSC shirt

and now this new BVB abomination. Yellow and white? Looks like a strange piece of hard candy.

IMHO nice design....IF it weren't our home jerseys. Can't believe that they replaced black by white. :-(

Ok I would take the new BVB jersey over this so called BVB jersey

for away kit this could be nice, but not for home. changing black to white is a stupid idea, atleast for me

If there's enough bad press, they usually retract the jersey and replace it with a more a fan-friendly kit.

I agree that shirt is s#it, but you are also blaming the wrong people. Nike doesn't produce s#it without the club's approval!!

So was there a similar reaction when the club unveiled the 98/99 jersey (with S.Oliver sponsorship) with the white panels down the side and where the only black was on the shirt's collar? I understand why people don't support the design shown in that Bild photo, but I guess what I'm asking is, haven't we already seen something like this?

Yeah. Our "home" jerseys of 2001-2002 were black and yellow striped, but not of the same style. The ones in 2001-2002 looked good on pictures, but when I bought mine, I thought it was hideous.

I still have it though, it's my Heiko Herrlich shirt!
