Saw it described as looking like a bus seat and now that's all I can see. 

@TomCFC85 I’m sure you can work some photoshop magic here!

damn they're gonna make us wait until November 5th? dont they know the season will have started already

 

We all know both Chelsea and Nike want to make money from kit sales , what I don't understand is why don't Nike mock up 3 maybe 4 home and away kits ( even if its only computer generated ) which then go on the Chelsea website then season ticket holders and club members get 2 votes (1 home 1 away) each to pick their favourite ones , that way most fans get  the kit and colours they want , money wise its a win win for Chelsea and Nike , and it should be the same for every club , its a no brainer for me .

As for the 3rd kit let Nike do what they want ( who cares ) , I don't wear colours but my 10 year old son loves getting the whole new kit and my 16 year old son likes getting the new shirt , I`ve told them with the 18/19 one I will not be buying them because it looks s**t , whoever said it looks like a bus or train seat is spot on , just like that black 3rd kit Nike made that looks like a bin liner .

Rant over - I`m going for a beer.

Ah, thanks Boomer.

Well, at least it's not the traffic cone again. Not a big fan of green, but the lighter shade isn't too nightmarish, I suppose. 

Gawd, the neck though....

We have had crew neck, v neck, now we have u neck.

Next season We might be playing the old Wimbledon style with the ball being in the air a lot, with the new neck line you’ll be able to bend your neck without the shirt digging in!! 

Quite possibly one of the worst home kits in the clubs history. On par with the late 80’s kits, but at least they weren’t £65. Some prat at Nike has taken this seasons shirt and let his kid run loose on it with crayons.

I think its kind of nice in a rotten vomit kind of way. 

In more positive news we'll have a new sleeve sponsor to go with it:

Worth a nice 50m.

Changing the complete kit is a bit much. Considering we just changed from adidas to nike at the end of last season.

Ach I'll just wear my retro Chelsea tops.

The yellow kit is really nice. Might get it for cycling b

All clubs are changing it every season now, it's a massive money maker.

Soon be like a F1 jersey 

£60 for something that cheap and tacky looking? No thanks. My advise to anybody that still buys football shirts is just to just get the yellow away shirt.

Playing Shirts have been that price for a long time now. The shirt people buy is £65 - which is a lot but probably the same for all clubs. 

 

Personally I like the shirt. Bit different. 

Different doesn't mean it's good though. I would probably hate it slightly less if it was just white streaks going through the shirt, the red looks out of place.

I work out in our shirts, but I buy them at the end of the season when they"re on sale. I bought last season's black away kit for €20. I want this season"s white away shirt, in this time next year I will be salivating for the yellow one

Courtois is massive, just look at the size of the ball 

I think new shirts are great, they are so sh*t, hopefully it will put people off over the age of 10 wearing them to the game!!! 

Dunno why they can't keep them blue, no lines or stripes, just blue.

I do the same. I want the third kit but it’s still £40! The can shove it up their backsides for that price. 

I got last seasons home shirt in my local sports direct for £10 last week, though I might've lost my soul in the process.

It's still a bit steep, I agree. I'm hoping for an additional discount.

Come on guys... the home kit isn't... THAT bad... 

 

It's a decent kit but at the moment I don't see the point in buying this one when you got this years kit already.

I'll wait and hope for the third one...

should be sponsored by National Express that's all I can say

Also shorts that are two sizes too big are great in the summer for keeping your bits nice and aerated.

That is a hell of a lot better. Still too much red for me though, and the badge is wrong.
