I'm a German. Everything has to be in order for me. :lol:

In all honesty, I really don't mind separate posts for separate kits, especially if there are five or six to post. Too many long posts and each page of the thread just gets too long -- there's a reason we've settled on 20 posts per page, and super long image-based posts often stretch it too long.

 

Plus, it helps avoid someone quoting an entire string of 10 images to reply to just one.

This was announced yesterday, but I forgot to post it until now. Both Man City and Man Utd will wear the Manchester worker bee on their shirts for their friendly next week, in support of the communities of Manchester and all those affected by May's terrorist attack. The match-worn shirts will be auctioned off afterwards in-order to raise money for the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund.

That's awesome.  For those who don't know, the worker bee has been a symbol of Manchester since it became a center of the textile industry during the Industrial Revolution.

 

They feature on the city's coat of arms.

This particular rendering appears to have been inspired by a mosaic on the floor of the town hall.

Bolton Wanderers home and away, both of which are meant to look like their 1997/98 kits since this upcoming season will mark the 20th anniversary of them moving into their new stadium.IMG_6137.JPG.13829907d5890be10a02832193e71fb3.JPG

For reference, here's what their 97/98 shirts looked like:

Bolton almost has a tradition wearing weird colours. But they reached a new level on this one.

What is so weird about it? White with navy/red trim. Isn't that their usual look? The sponsor is bad though.

Its a beauty of a kit. but that sponsor is so terrible. couldnt they just take the white lettering and make it blue, while dropping the gradient? just my 2 cents

My bad. I meant colors.

I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010.

I love clubs that can get away with a simple icon as their badge.  Greuther Fürth, with their clover.

I love that too, and I think some national teams could get away with it as well. I really wish Canada did that with the maple leaf, a la the blue Centennial kits they wore in 2012:

Their current crest is pretty awful, at least in my opinion, and the maple leaf is really all they need, regardless of whether it's the retro version used on the Centennial kits or the version from the flag. The only thing I'd add would be the initials of the federation to the inside of the maple leaf.

The problem with having the red rose of Lancashire debossed into the fabric without colour is that you're essentially left with a white rose - the symbol of Lancashire's rival county Yorkshire.

 

Mind, as a Yorkshireman I don't really see this as being a problem. :D

First real shots of the Chelsea third kit, albeit the infant version:

The regular versions will obviously have the Vapor Aeroswift construction, and there will be a gap in the shoulder/sleeve stripes.
