One of my favourite bits of commentary on ifollow was hearing the, I think Middlesbrough, commentator backtracking after finding out the 22/23 shirt was a tribute to Coventry Cathedral that had been built after the blitz…having moments before said it was the worst kit he’d ever seen.

Huddersfield iirc.

Huddersfield iirc.

Well remembered…I think!

I'm putting it out there that the material on the 11/12 FAC shirt is the worst material any football shirt has ever been made out of in the history of football shirts.

I dont remember that top one at all, what's the story to that?

25th anniversary of winning the cup, released it after we drew Spurs away in the 3rd round. Possibly the most tinpot thing we've ever done.

The brown kit is the business.

Iconic, it has to win.

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Brown shirt is iconic. The 22/23 3rd is nice too, aside from awful betting sponsor.

Rest of them are dreadful!

I very nearly didn’t use the word “iconic” because everyone bloody uses it at the moment to describe things like sandwiches, appalling sets at Glastonbury and sunglasses.

But much like the religious paintings of orthodox christianity the word derives from, the brown kit is truly iconic.

Maybe it will be knocked out in glorious failure. Yet will forever be remembered.

Think Brazil 1982.

Then didn't they use it the year after... because... well it saved wear & tear on the existing (limited) kit!

I would DQ at the last minute for being a home kit... then maybe it's last min replacement will do a Denmark & storm it.

I would raise you the white 14/15 away kit.

Was brought it as a leaving gift... felt like wearing a paper bag.

Thankfully swapped it for the red 15/16 shirt for half price & a couple of match tickets. The club did some weird things in that time.

Now, they had a kit.

Brazil stopped being beautiful when they lost those Topper kits.

A grey area. Never worn at home. You may disapprove of the inclusion of the 17/18 play-off final shirt in this competition too.

Very good shout re: 14/15. Practically see through. Terrible terrible shirt.

Cheers, though it's still not ringing any bells which is weird as i usually fix on this kind of random, useless info

Can't tell if 98/99 is horrendous and it's just pure nostalgia that makes me like it, but it gets my vote

 

[lifeskyblue]

Really like the ‘cathedral window’ kit but it has to be the brown. A kit everyone of a certain age (our supporters or others) had an opinion on

It's in my top 5 away kits of all-time. Whelan and Huckerby vibes.

I really like that one - simple but with a touch of class. Never noticed the thinness of the material. Only thing with mine is the Puma logos lost their colour in the wash a couple of years ago.

A bit 'Marseille' now I think about it. And why not?

You'll get chance to vote for it soon. You may be the only one who does though

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Don’t agree with the FAC shirt being classed as an away strip. You’d have to consider the playoff final top v Exeter too on that basis even though both are clearly ‘home’ strips.

It was too much of a mouthful to call it the Away/Third/Limited Edition/Anniversary World Cup, mate.

It’s a home kit though, let’s be honest!

Good work nonetheless!

Pure nostalgia

I remember wearing that kit while having a kickabout at my nans during summer hols in Kerseley

Terrible shirt but i love it and it gets my vote.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Chocolate brown and 20/21 for me

 

[Martw]

Defo Huddersfield

 

[eyesee]

the brown away kit is iconic. but i've always liked the red version as well.
how dare you put them up against each other so early. that should be the final, surely.

What about the yellow one coming up in a few groups tine?…

 

[skybluelee]

This result may surprise one or two. 22/23 just pip 78-80 to top spot by two votes. 98/99 take third.
