If you could pick an away kit colour what would you pick? I want everyone to answer or you are not allowed to moan at me when you don't like

Prior to that tweet was this

Why does spending the day at adidas looking at kits always drive me to drink?!

So if you're on twitter cast your vote

Head of retail at STFC. Disappointed that basically she has pretty much total say over kit choices. What ever happened to the old vote kit a, b or c in the adver in years gone by?

Just to clarify this is for the following season. She chose this comings seasons kits 15 months ago.

yeah, because that was brilliant, that resulted in such design classics as this little beauty:

The away kit is a bit of a lottery, innit.

At least we now know that this seasons & next seasons kit will be made by Adidas

Ha ha, good work
For the record I voted kit B.
In fairness, those votes were always a bit of a sham in that they tended to be a choice between 3 variants of broadly the same thing


Title: Re: Away kit colours
Post by: The Grim Reaper on Thursday, June 5, 2014, 22:39:13
Our recent kits have looked good though mainly due to Adidas and Samsung. Wonder if the new sponsor will cheapen the look?

And EA Sports. In fairness, they've all been chosen by the person you said "Disappointed that basically she has pretty much total say over kit choices", so presumably she hasn't done that bad a job, after all?

As opposed to when you got to vote and we ended up with an ice hockey kit :)

Don't sully the ice hockey jerseys by associating them with the god awful fan vote kits!

It's not just her tbf.

And even then our kits have been decent last few years.

Should always go for blue&black or white for me, with an exception if we can get a 1996 Mizuno peppermint green style shirt....that was quality.

Agreed, much nicer than this season's effort. I'm all for away kits being a little nutty, home kits are kept within a familiar framework (for good reason!) but the away kits should involve a little creativity.

That godawful black and mustard bee-stripe thing we had a few years back put me off that theory. But then you like ice hockey kits so shows what you know ;)

We should petition the club to bring back the potato print shirt for our away kit & just change the colour every year.

Wonder if the new sponsors are one of the club partners on the STFC home page at the bottom? Take a pick from Fast Plant, Capture cctv,  Verelogic or Excalibur?

Its Safestyle, we know this already, and when they don't shift, you buy one you get one free.

If this prediction is wrong it will be The Friends of Shaw Forest Alliance.

Always liked out away kit being white shirts and black shorts. But the lucky blue kit was ace and the Boca one was smart.

Post by: jutty274 on Thursday, June 12, 2014, 22:41:08
I think this would be a great away kit for us. Either in this colour or in black with either red or white pinstipes & even the home kit in red with white pinstripe.

Would be an updated adidas version of this
