I'd prefer us to go back to Umbro, though with the new 'global brand', that isn't going to happen. Mind you, looking at the latest England home, it might be as well to stick with Adidas. I've bought a shirt most seasons since the 80's and by far my favourite was the centenary kit.

I'd imagine our new kit for next season not differing much from the latest one.

Love to see a modern adaption of the clive walkeresque one and the orange and grey away...the latest home is awful...nice if you like bikes.

Dont really like our current home shirt aswell. It also isnt very comfortable to wear imo.

Well yes....but as an away kit, black is nice and evil!!!

Better than yellow, its horrible.

I have to agree. I hate the yellow shirt from last season too. But it still better then the cursed away-shirt of this seaon. And we won the FA-Cup in those yellow shirts ;)

I'm not too fond of the current kits, but looking at some of those Umbro kits currently out there, our kits don't look so bad.

Cant agree with you there Maks. GB had it right on when he said we need Umbro back.

The umbro kits can be summed up by one maxim: beauty in simplicity. There was nothing outlandish about them and thats what made them great. I look at City's current kit, with the simple design, layout and classic look and I get very jealous.

Even on some of the more out there Umbro designs, like the England a few years ago with the blue epaulets around the shoulder, they still beat the pants off most of the stuff Adidas has been producing.

For me, our best kits recently were the all black and the yellow/blue from last years FA Cup (one of the best we've had imo). I liked the first home adidas kit from 2006, and the corresponding white one that is similar, but outside of those (and this year's third) they have been really disappointing imo. Moreso given the fact that Adidas have alot of classic looking templates used by other teams, but we just dont get them.

Lozzer, you have a point re: the bad economy. Every kit used to have a shelf life of 2 years. What ever happened to that? What is the constant need to gouge the supporters? Personally, I end up waiting until the previous years goes on sale to buy it, as I cant afford $80-100 on a new kit when I have so many old ones

Last year's yellow was better than the highlighter shade of 2 years ago.

Agreed, that was utterly horrible, and I barely bring myself to look at it, let alone buy it.

I really dislike any kit in which there is a need to change the colors on the badge. I dont see why it cant be just left as the usual blue/white/yellow/red, but intstead has to "match" the colorscheme of the shirt
