my apologies, I realized I misquoted you I meant to quote the original pic of that awful shirt.

still, I learnt something new. And I wish my eyes hadn't seen that

New Spurs home kit.

Bayern Munchen Away 21/22

[Gerry Attrick]

You’re hard pressed to find a Bayern kit that isn’t at least a solid 8/10.

[amir87]

That Bayern shirt is really nice.

Will wait to see what number Gini get's before buying.

Bayern Munchen Away 21/22

Might have been the chavvy gold chain used on the Adidas official pics, but that ^^^ just crosses the line into gaudy for my liking.

Not a patch on this simple classic...

[Red_Rich]

That Bayern shirt is like a 60 grand car.  Immaculate.

That Spurs away?  No fucking wonder Kane wants out!

[Jon2lfc]

Spurs away

On a purely practical kit clash note..
As it seems to contain every colour under the sun, won't this clash with like 75% of other teams shirts 

Or maybe cos it's so mental it will clash with none!

Bayern Munchen Away 21/22

That is an absolute stunner.

Take away the dots that turn it into quarters, and it's perfect.

Sleek, superb colour contrast, simple and effortlessly cool.

That was lovely too but, for me the collar and the panelling high up on the chest/collar bone let it down.

Speaking of which, I saw these side-by-side yesterday - United's look on the same day hasn't aged well.

The whole narrative around those suits is total nonsense.

1 - They are nowhere near as bad as made out. They actually fit for starters, United’s don’t.
2 - The idea Ferguson turned to Brian Kidd and said “1-0” when he first saw them is ridiculous. Clearly an anecdote he fabricated after they won and the suits started getting ridiculed.
3 - Most importantly, the whole story only exists because we lost. They’re used as some sort of omen that we were going to be terrible that day. Had we won? Everyone would be calling it a stroke of genius, saying it showed how confident we were. That narrative, like the one that persists, would also be bullshit.

[Son of Spion]

I have to agree with all of that.

United's suits were terrible. Ugly and badly fitted. Ours were far better, but in an awful (for a suit) colour.

The narratives were definitely set after the game/result, not before.

[Macphisto80]

I made my Communion in a suit exactly like that. Same tie and everything. Ours, not the funeral home director ones they came out in. Fucking hell, those are shocking. Then again, it suited Gary and Phil, the Lurch Addams looking c*nts.

This - the revisionist United/media shite about the ‘white suit final’ has always annoyed me. That and the Spice Boys nickname, particularly as it wasn’t one of ours that was sullying themselves with one.

Completely agree. United’s players look like kids trying their dad’s suits on.

[Jon2lfc]

Y'all are missing the point.

Is that Diego Maradona warming up being Jamie Redknapp?

[semit5]

Wow those United suits are HORRENDOUS! Not enough is made of that, did they try them on before hand and say yeah that’ll do. Ours look stunning in comparison.

I like that they've included a salute to tiny Philipp Lahm on there...

I once did a tongue n cheek mock-up based on those suits. And tbf, many of our kits have been worse.

The only reason why we wore those white suits, was David James had a modelling deal with Armani, so he thought be great idea for the team to get suits fitted out by Armani for the cup final, however when the players were fitted out for the suits, there was only 2 colours available, either blue or in white, no way were we going to were blue suits, so we went with the white suits instead.


 The narrative since is convenient as we lost, be totally different had we won.

Folwer has said they didn't know they were white until they opened the bags and by then it was too late to change them.

Southampton's new Hummel kit. I'd prefer stripes on the back too.

[arthur sarnoff]

Think I would too, and I'm not too keen on the collar.  Still, I quite like it.  Certainly compared to a lot of the new kits.

[Crosby Nick]

Does it look a bit like the Travelator from Gladiators?

[J_Kopite]

Nice kit if it wasn't for the betting sponsor making it look cheap

[Dull Tools]

I hate teams having stripes on the back. You can never see the numbers when teams are playing.

[Jon2lfc]

I think it's a nod to their heritage of half of their players later signing for us (the reds).

[rob1966]

Think their 2005 kit was similar to this one

[jackh]

Southampton's new Hummel kit. I'd prefer stripes on the back too.

Thought not particularly being a huge fan of the kits, as such, I quite liked Southampton's novel approach to their kits a couple of years back - home & third, I think...and something I'm surprised more '...& white' striped teams don't do.

(Much prefer that newer one to this one of a similar design, by the way.)

You’re hard pressed to find a Bayern kit that isn’t at least a solid 8/10.

Helps when your kit manufacturer is also a shareholder so actually give a shit about you.
