You can just picture the folks designing the kits can't you.

"Classic design, nice and sleek, they'll like it."

"But boss, we still haven't finalized the details, like collar, shorts, socks..."

"I'm well aware Graham. Fuck up the collar and the socks...leave the shorts. We can't be making things perfect now can we! Nothing is perfect Graham, nothing. You'll do well to remember that. Now, onto more important matters, why didn't you bring me my kale smoothie this morning?"

Apparently new kit being worn for final

Maybe there's something in the contract that says the team have to wear it from 1st June

There are clearly two separate departments working on kit design these days. Firstly, there are the sports designers who know a bit about the actual sport, what fabrics etc work well and also how to come up with a sleek, classic look and feel that the players will feel good wearing and the supporters will like enough to part with the vast wads of their hard earned money it takes to purchase them nowadays.

Once Department One has come up with something good, the project gets moved on to Department Two. This is where the budding Gok Wan's get to work. These are the hipsters whose task it is to overthink everything. These are the guys who decide to put stupid panels in, fuck up collars, put seams where they are not needed and detract from the overall look, then pass the whole thing off as "cutting edge and fresh design technology". They do this with straight face, too.

We, the fan and consumer, often then scratch our heads and liken the whole exercise to when Ronny Rosenthal was clean through on an open goal away to Villa and somehow conspired to hit the bar rather than burst the gaping, empty net.

To be honest i like all 3 kits + the keepers black one. The away kit i would prefer to be the reverse of the home kit but the colour looks better on the pic above with the shorts.

It's alright and will look great on our sexy players.  Not really a Liverpool kit though; whatever that nebulous thing is.

Fuck the colour, why hasn't anyone mentioned how it looks as if it has been made for Mr. Stretch?

Is that just an optical illusion or when you look down it, does it seem to not end for ages? Seriously, look at it in it's original window (not in the quote).

It looks odd and kind of the opposite of the Simon Cowell effect...

The photographer has taken a photo of the top, and THEN the shorts (possible at a different length, and just sort of... enlarged the shorts.  ;D

That's shit if it is a real product photo... Sorry. It just looks shit. Separate them and take 360 shots...

I liked our Toxic Orange kit, but wouldn't buy it. This one will look decent too with the players wearing it.
