If the home shorts are white, surely the away shorts won't be as well?

The DHgate design team are going to absolutely butcher that embossed fabric. Cant see it'll be worth their time doing a bespoke fabric for the amount of orders they would get

Love the kit and the link to the origins of our city name.
Despairing about the local history knowledge of our fan base!

Bit of an argument going on here about this. I was taught that the name comes from St Osburga who founded a nunnery along the Sherbourne (also St Osburgs off the ring round). Anglo Saxon pronunciation was Coventre which is Covent which meant convent and Tre which means settlement. I can understand thats hard to get on a shirt though.

Lots of talk about embossed, but this looks debossed to me. Embossed is raised, which on close up photos doesn’t look like it is. Debossed is pressed down into material… guess you’ll only know when it’s in hand.

Looks pretty good…..still think I will invest in the 1978 Admiral retro top though if the quality is OK ?!

It's neither. Just a change in stitch to show the pattern. Can't imagine Hummel getting a press tool cut to deboss the patterned areas specifically for us. That would boost the cost price dramatically.

Like it, was complaining last week we didnt take more risks with the GK shirts.

Hopefully the away one is fully mad

As if someone photoshopped the 1990s CBS carpet on to the goalkeeper shirt as well as the away shirt

I'll just echo what everybody else has said, absolutely class shirt dodgy to have white shorts.

Am I the only one who thinks the Monzo sponsorship should have been in red ?

The white against the sky blue (not reflex blue thank ****) doesn't stand out very well. Wonder how Monzo feel about it ?

Definitely on your own on that one lol.

Looks class with it being white

Probably bang on the money tbh… similar to the glued badge rather than stitched.

Not really a fan of this on first viewing, all a little boring for my liking. There’s some brilliant releases this season from Hummel & particularly Umbro can only hope the third shirt is a little more out there.

Hopefully navy to match what looked like navy chevrons on the leaked picture. That way we can swap about with white and navy shorts on both kits when needed. I think the home would look better with navy shorts anyway

Always thought all sky blue is a bit wishy washy. I think the contrast of the white shorts and sponsor will look good.

I’m not generally a fan of football shirts, and being an old giffer, I usually hanker after the simplicity of the pre sponsorship era. And many sponsors are plain embarassing. But I really like this. Combines simplicity with a subtly complex background, a lovely colour and a sponsor with some hefty clout. I’ll get one.

'allowing the fans a full sky-blue ensemble'

If the shorts are white what does that mean?!

Not loving the idea of White.

We did have white in 87..

but also the year we got relegated from the prem

and again with possibly my least favorite Cov shirt ever

Nice shirt, I like the cofa tree too, just would have liked a strong 1994 collar. White shorts I'd like too.
