Fraggle Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 New West Ham home top by Umbro. Wouldn't mind a tasteful "modern" home top again this season (not too far from the beaten track of a classic traditional though). https://www.footyheadlines.com/2022/05/west-ham-22-23-home-kit.html?m=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something a little bit different, but not over board. Got a little bored with the plain tops(as ice as some of them were). This seasons away top design would have leant itself well to a Maroon home version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sertse Posted May 25, 2022 Author Share Posted May 25, 2022 Lots of people getting impatient on the season ticket tweet saying they want the new kit released. Why do Hearts always take so long to release the kits? There's money to be made for the club and they just seem to dither with the release. Also noticed each kit is released with lots of time apart but the big clubs in England release them as one, not sure why we space it so much. I've seen so many people say they hold off on buying a bit until they've seen all of them, by the time they decide they might choose to not buy one.

They should be reserved for anniversary kits and things that we are trying to make look "older". Put the maroon on roundneck collar, and keep the design the same and it could be nice, but I wish we'd consign the collars to the bin. It's a football top, not an attempt at a polo shirt.

But it doesn't really fit the modern style with a big sponsor splashed across the front, and manufacturers logo plastered in plain view. It loses something once those things are added to it. I'd actually like to see us have an official "retro design" every handful of years. Something that we can wear once or twice a season, and not just a fans version, but I don't like it being the main thing we wear every week. I don't really like wearing them down to the gym or going for a run in, the collar is a bit irritating.

Percival King Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 What a thankless task the club have trying to satisfy thousands of us. Trying to find a collarless top that has a collar but a collar that isn't like this season's but is like season 2021/22's but also has a round collar and v-neck. Is almost all maroon (correct shade) but has white trim and other white bits. Is traditional but is modern. Has a pattern running through it but has no pattern running through it. And that's just the home top. We might have a debate about what sort of collar we love/hate but at least we're not discussing what the addition of a street map of Edinburgh does to our home top.

Samuel Camazzola Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I like what Fiorentina have been doing recently. Instead of releasing separate goalkeeper kits, they just have three/four team kits with the goalkeeper wearing one of these. https://www.fiorentinastore.com/gb/match-kits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, but I reserve the right to moan when the collared, collarless, vneck, roundneck shirt doesn't quite meet my expectations It's part of the fun every year. We talk about the shirt, get a teaser image and over-analyse it to ****, posting photoshops and pictures of teams from all around the world who might have something similar, then the kit gets released and one half of kickback treats it like the best thing since sliced bread, and the other half explodes over how shite it is. We then agree, after 15 pages of frantic posting, that it's alright and then we do it all over again with the away kit. Yearly tradition!

Aye, get some tartan OAN. Simply change the blue denim to maroon, base the home & away kits on this and Bob's yer uncle. An eye-catching strip plus a refresh for the Tynie goal celebration music.

tian447 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I think the nicest home shirt we've had in a while was the 16/17 effort: Plain colour, simple sponsor in plain colour, and a proper dark maroon. If we could get something similar from Umbro, with the diamonds down the sleeves, I'd be very happy. The 18/19 one was also almost perfect, I just didn't like the little white flashes around the collar: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
