Drew22 Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Speaking of eBay, the knockoffs are up. Here's a purported Arsenal away shirt: THere are a bunch of Arsenal home shirts knock-offs. There are some with no Nike logo, some with fake names and numbers, some with misspelled names. Atleast there are a couple that are real that I might bid on.

plamenj Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 those spurs kits are now my favorites of all time brown and black, with gold accents, and a red sponsor. that's my kind of color scheme Brown and golden are the colours of a Spurs kit they used back in the 19th century. Brown is not a typical soccer colour, actually quite unpopular with other sports also... I guess the black referee kits used until the 90s stopped the Spurs from going retro brown. I do like this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 As do I, except for the fact that it's Spurs.PSG has a new sponsor I believe.Air Emirates, same as Arsenal. What's odd is that on the markups I've seen, the vertical stripe stops in the middle where the sponsor logo goes. This one doesn't seem to have a place for the sponsor logo.

MJWalker45 Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 No new uni's and not Europe, but Australia's A League has switched numbers to a similar style as Real Madrid's new numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gosioux76 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I'm assuming those horrendous Puma-style numbers Spurs is wearing will be replaced by the Premiership numbers once the season starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harperdc Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 probably, but I'd presume they'll be used in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 That's what I'd guess, as well.Arsenal has usually worn regular Premiership numbers (without the Prem logo) in Europe, but last year they switched to the Nike numbers in Champions League matches. Worked well for us, and I'd like to see us continue to use special numbers in the CL this year.As no great lover of Spurs, I'm relieved to see that their change kits are hideous. The shirts by themselves are very sharp, but with monochromatic shorts and socks the brown is way too much. Had they used white shorts, they might actually have looked good. http://editorial.gettyimages.com/source/se...=71541099&cdi=0No names on the back - interesting.

MJWalker45 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 it's preseason, they won't add names until the season starts. Just in case numbers change right before it starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr79 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 It would appear Liverpool are wearing the adidas WC style numbers and lettering in Europe this season as well. Red on the white/green away kit might look a little funny though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosioux76 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 it's preseason, they won't add names until the season starts. Just in case numbers change right before it starts Everton's doing the same on their U.S. tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harperdc Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 even Real Madrid did it last year when they played in the U.S...I hope we stick with the Nike numbers - goridedelini theorized the ones Nike will start to use for their clubs look close to the Australia and Croatia WC numbers...

Doug, you can just call me Brian on here. And yes. It is my theory that Nike will use the numbers seen on Australia, Croatia, and India's national team kits for their club teams. This is further supported by looking at some of the wallpapers in the products section of nikesoccer.com. Look closely at the genero-uniformed players in the background, and you will see that the numbers that they have on their shorts are the same as those worn by Croatia and Australia during the World Cup. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Celtic wore the Australia style numbers during the US Tour so unless Nike give the option to each team I think that is the standard. I know Inter had a different number set though. It might be one they chose though they normally stuck with whatever Nike made the default in prior seasons.

Gothamite Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Rumor going around now on the official Arsenal board is that the club has changed its mind about the away kit (they were going to keep the one introduced last year but change the sponsor).Apparently, Arsenal wanted to move the crest from the center to the left breast, and they figured if they were going to make several changes they might as well just change the whole thing.Here's the new away shirt being reported:http://img132.imageshack.us/my.php?image=00ltv5.jpgI would tend to believe this. It means that the one seen on eBay was legit. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie_delini Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 i could still potentially see this as being a fake - none of the nike shirts have the piping all the way around the bottom of the shirt - it goes along the back only. Secondly, the canon on the back of the neck is in the metallic gold - doesn't seem right when the shirt is yellow. Also, the collar seems to be similar to the home shirt, but it's not quite right. It comes too far to the middle and doesn't stand up enough. Also, the piping on the sleeves is thinner than any other shirt nike has unveiled. I could be wrong, but these are things that I see as potentially making this jersey a fake. However, if it's the real deal, this is a nice away shirt for the gunners to be wearing.

Gothamite Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I make no claims either way. I don't know the source that leaked this info.Just throwing it out there. I did notice that the sleeves weren't exactly the same as we've seen on the template, but Nike has made changes to the template before. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.
