Yep, all the time. In the past 10 years they've have plain red, red and white hoops, red and white stripes and blue and red stripes.

Yeah, they like to mix it up quite a bit compared to most:










Even clubs with an iconic kit like Barcelona sway with tradition, what with having shirt sponsors and now hoops instead of stripes. Southampton and West Brom have recently had pinstripes which is a plain shirt if you're more than 10ft away really.

I prefer having a mix myself.

indeed they have

also southampton dropped the stripes for a lil while too.

some teams are synomenous with stripes

cov aint,we have had plain and stripes in interchanging for a long time. lets keep that tradition going, good for fans have more variety in shirt styles.

I stand corrected. Not keen though, heritage and all that.

Saints had the pinstripe one for 2012/13 and the fans weren't happy. Someone then decided off the back of those complaints to go all red for 2013/14. They then made a big deal of bringing the stripes back last season and have stripes again this season.

Our heritage is a colour though, not a style.

I'd much prefer stripes to something like this that we've had recently...

That collar. They even inflicted it on Italy.

Yes it's the proper badge! No silly ring or anything round it. Someone post a pic I can't from my iPhone

Badge looks decent. Better without the thing surrounding it

Probably will be the best kit we've had in a long while. Should prove very populate especially being Nike branded as well.

That looks like it'd tear a nip clean off, although I guess if their preview image was the other side nobody would be too happy.

It is. I've always thought it was one of the best.

I see the club are slowly releasing pictures of the strip over the weekend the big teasers.

I'm sold already. Sky blue and white stripes has always been a personal favourite, it has the clubs crest on it and it's a decent make so hopefully I won't get electrocuted when I put it on.

Think I might be buying this one. I've hated the cheap badges they've had on the kits in recent years, has really put me off buying one but that looks very nice. From what we've seen so far unless they've done something very strange with the rest of it then I'm very happy.

That was my first thought. Best sellotape a polo to each of them if you wear it out on a run. Speaking from experience!

Came back from Italy recently where my boys dragged me into a football shop in the back streets of Sorrento. The eldest wanted the Napoli shirt made by Macron, the youngest one went for Sorrento which looks exactly the same as the pictures that have been posted. Warning though it was made in two standards up to 56 chest, the replica was around 30 quid which has transfers but the match shirts with all the embroidery were 90 euros. But to be fair to Nike the Sorrento kit was that nice my dad went and bought the away one.

A real embroidered badge, rubbish. We need a cheap iron on badge that comes off in the wash! (Actually, it looks amazing!)

Shame about the shorts.
Horrible and detracts from the sky blues.
Cup final season shorts were an alternative to the regular white shorts.
Striped shirt is only bearable for me with sky blue or ata stretch white shorts

Not a fan of the dark shorts but I suppose it's better than knobs flapping about.

White shorts with the stripes reminds me of the relegation season more than anything.

Does that mean 'Stat sports' on the shorts and 'allsop&allsop'on the shirts?

I was just thinking similar but ten wondered if this reveal is for the away shorts? Unless stat sports have agreed to sponsor shorts instead of shirts, which wouldn't really get them as much press / advertising, unless cameras pointed at the players legs?
