Jesus...

 

[Mark Stevart]

Congratulations on one horrendous home kit macron that badge is awful

 

[GBJ]

Hmmm. I’m fairly indifferent towards it tbh.

Anyway, what matters most is it must be cheaper than Hummel (certainly looks it).

Also, by my recollection we’ve played in blue with white arms for a total of four league campaigns and they have returned finishes of 11th twice, 16th & 23rd.

Looks great, something different & lets be honest its just a kit

See you in 11 months Mork

 

[BoyWonder2]

It says adult and junior, will they do baby/toddler kits too? My boy is 18 months and will be picking one up for him, and tempted for one for me too. Haven’t brought a football shirt since our championship days.

Th

The reverse of the home!

thats what i heard about 10 minutes ago

 

[Danshrimper]

Not as good as Hummel but quite a nice kit considering it’s a template.

 

[GDM]

Absolute quality that someone on here has mocked up the exact kit and it got shared over social media before the official release

 

[Whispering Bob]

Not a fan. Those sleeves should come with a warning. I can already hear the announcer before games 'We must warn some fans that the next 90 minutes will feature bright swirling effects'

The points I've noted so far


The logo is horrendous, I like the fact it's white and stands out, but the embroidery is cheap and nasty.

Uneven white borders down the sides, no white along the bottom. it's a complete mess. hopefully, this is just the preproduction version.

Forgetting last season's amazing kits, this is the best kit we have had in a long time.

The shorts look nice

Ideally, I'd like to see Navy socks, but will probably be white

Like the stripy collar as well.

Overall, sort the logo out, and its the second-best home kit we have had in a while

I like the kit, but it just doesn’t look like a Southend United Kit… I think it’s the badge and that’s it’s in Royal blue and not tonal to match the kit.

I would have preferred it reversed as we’ve done for the last 20 odd years, although I know some traditionalists prefer it the white version

if it’s not in bulk production yet, I’d personally go for the silver badge or atleast turn the Royal to Navy on the detail of the badge as it just doesn’t look right on the kit

Yes I bet that's a £10 template just with a £35 pound add on

My eyes.......my eyes.........it looks like my TV has gone fuzzy

Embroidered badges are better then stick on ones surely you agree

I think when i was buying my teams kit the basic template for this kit was £22 per top

 

[Mark Stevart]

Its up in the worst released this summer

Not if they look like that. It would actually put me off buying it if it’s not changed

 

[Ex-SouthendUnitedEmployee]

I hope they tidy this up before releasing. Looks like badge is pre-made and either stitched on or heat applied

 

[SeldomSeenShrimper]

I do agree, but this is messy

I wouldn't accept this for my Sunday league side. that is not an over-exaggeration, we sent shirts back and made them print them instead.

But at least it won't full off haha

True, but that’s the same for every club up and down the country.

At least we’re not Man City, who despite their untold amounts of wealth, still charge their fans £70 for a Puma training top.
