OutByEaster? Posted May 31, 2013 Moderator Share Posted May 31, 2013 Am I right in thinking we'll be launching this one without a sponsor? Will that mean delays before we can get it on sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) Nice little website showing the design of every Villa home and away kit so far.Home kitsAway kits They look like Horse Jockey kits in the beginning. Interesting that in 1957 we seemingly played a game in a red kit against Burnley This one's always been a favourite (in case the image is not showing, I'm referring to the 93-95 green, red and black Muller kit) Edited May 31, 2013 by StanBalaban Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but I just think if we were we'd have heard about it now - if you're paying millions of pounds to be on a shirt, you want people to be very keen to see you on it and you'd expect a bit of a buzz by now.

Just as a guess, perhaps the Genting contract has not yet expired officially, thus making a new announcement contractually impossible. Anyone know when exactly the deal with Genting expires? **edit** According to the OS, the deal was signed for 2 years commencing on the 1st July.Genting Deal Edited May 31, 2013 by StanBalaban Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeaniimacaroon Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Slightly off topic, but an Adidas kit would have looked not too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmarsha_926 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I think the arms are to clustered would be better if the adidas stripes was blue and went just to the arms. I did a Villa kit with a white collar and no one liked it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 31, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 31, 2013 Yeah the stripes going down the arms looks weird. if they stopped at the join between claret and blue it would look much better. Decent kit though to be fair to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismail-villa Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Regarding that adidas kit, imo I would've liked to see the stripes in blue on the shoulders then claret along the arms.Or maybe just on the shoulders in blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KjParton Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I always think West Ham's "Claret" is more red. I hope ours is actually Claret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roonst83 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) Imagine the black kit with claret shorts and black socks!! Would love that. Edited May 31, 2013 by roonst83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lp_villa830 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Slightly off topic, but an Adidas kit would have looked not too bad. The stripes on that look worse than our Macron men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismail-villa Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I would love if puma would produce our kits one day. They make some nice kits! Like Dortmund's home kit for this season <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 That West Ham kit is nice. I'd love to have Adidas making our kits. Admittedly the stripes do look weird overlapping the two colours. If that shirt just had a v neck and no collar it's look lovely. That shade of claret (though the photo quality isn't the best) looks a lot nicer than the shiny pinky claret we have with the current shirt. I'd be willing to bet our Macron shirt isn't going to look as nice as that West Ham one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Am I the only one that doesn't like that kit? Dunno why. I do like Adidas but everyone has them these days and they're all the same. Aside from the Macron men coming off in the wash I'm fine with Macron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
