Saintsfan Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 It's not really a 'loss' when umbro and nike are essentially the same company. The only reason England are still packaged as umbro is a diplomatic decision to keep the brand as an 'English' rather than American company. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Pretty much! However some folks still treat them as separate entities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSox44 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 New Celtic AwayFull kit can be seen here: http://www.footballshirtculture.com/12/13-kits/celtic-2012-2013-nike-away-125th-anniversary-football-kit.htmlHoly that's bad. It's not garish, it just doesn't use any of the team's colors. Which makes it bad.Plus, I thought they were going traditional for the anniversary season.Anywho, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Sure, last year's road kit was amazing, but Celtic's road kits have traditionally been ungodly horrendous, or just bland and generic (which is what they've been recently, until 2011-12). I don't know why I bothered thinking they'd continue with good road kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Black is their traditional clash kit,usually mixed in with some type of green. These look pretty good to me. Their hone kits are posted earlier in the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black certaiy isn't out of character for Celtic, as a clash kit. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aawagner011 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I'm actually liking it, especially that the sleeve and collar trim is navy blue, not black. Long sleeve is cool, too. They didn't displace the stripes at the bottom of the sleeves and actually left them at the same location as the short sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 That is actually really, really nice.

Gothamite Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Not a huge fan. Could be much worse, but the sleeve stripes seem forced.

Foxxtrot44 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I'm gonna give it a thumbs down. I dont like the solid blue collar and the stripes REALLY seem tacked on. If Nike had slanted the stripes like the kit they are throwing back to I might like it better...but I have similar problems with both in that neither really look like an Arsenal kit. It's like anti-iconic. I HATE THIS TIMELINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hey, if we can't have sleeve stripes in football, at least we can have sleeve stripes in football, right?

When I first got the shirt, I thought it was weird having the stripes on the inside of the sleeve. While the shirt looks better with the stripes on the cuff, it's also dumb to walk around with the end of your sleeve rolled up once.If you're going to do that, just make it the cuff of the sleeve. Why hide it? If the actual players roll up their sleeve, there is no way that stays up during the entirety of a game. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
