I had a suspicion this might be your style... No, but rumors are circulating that the designer is from Mumbai.
All wise men ( and women), pioneers and prophets are initially ridiculed, Then they are violently opposed And eventually accepted as self evident I prefer the name Bombay. PS: I stay in Bombay, I'm not from Bombay. India is a big country, you know Inter's new jersey. Is it just me or does this look really loose fitting? Almost nightdress-esque.
The 10/11 BvB shirt was a huge favourite of mine. Elegant and wearable. Really dislike the new kit. Hope they don't sell well so they get the message! Well, of course there are worse kits out there. Wolfsburg's cancerous green, for one, positively offends me!
Re: Scf I give a thumbs up for both these kits. I like the color of the away kit, I've always wanted Hertha to use that color.
IMO, even as a Wolfsburg supporter, I am a bit queesy about the Adidas version of the classic neon green jerseys, as first introduced by Puma. I must say that their best jerseys/kits I have run into were the Puma kits made (1997-2003) when they first earned their promotion to the BL. I own the jerseys from both 1998-99 and 2000-02 and am constantly searching on eBay Deutschland for the 1997-98 (green) and 1999-2000 (white) shirts as well, short-sleeved, no name or number on the back, with both the VW and classic "Castle 'W'" logo on the front in size XL. If necessary I have learned how to make bank transfers to Germany (I did this to get the 1998-99 jersey), the one real problem with that, is the excessive $35.00 bank fee (YIKES!) I pay each time I do one, so I still prefer to use PayPal to get them, as I did when I won the 2000-02 jersey.
Hamburg, Bayern, and Nuremberg all have nice jerseys. Dortmund, on the other hand, is just awful! That's definitely not a jersey befitting a champion.
Just read that since Cottbus don't have a sponsor for the next season yet they are selling their new jersey "pure": I almost wish this would happen to 96. Lucky Cottbus fans.
the new WOB jersey is a real disappointment. I never liked the neon green shirts. The half and half shirts from 2008(?) were my favorite. and i was pretty pleased with the 2010/2011 shirts.
Right now, they're the ugly (albeit rich) ducklings of the Bundesliga. Corporate club, bland city, divas, a disciplinarian coach and ugly jersies... Do we really want 'em to be a cool club?
Pardon me for breaking in but I like these type of threads. One question: Since neon coloring is "hawt" again why can't Dortmund return to THIS: Yes, I'm weird. Not weird enough to like the whole color halftone cmYK print motif on the BvB-D 11/12 home kit.
Yeah, there you go, GO WOLFSBURG!!! V-F-L! V-F-L! V-F-L! V-F-L! (repeat as needed) BTW, I would want to learn the traditional chants WOB supporters use during a match, so I can follow along here at home. I already know the official theme is "Grun-Weiss VfL" and another one is (of course) "Immer Nur Du VfL".
