Lawton looks a bit like Fleck to me.

The online shop image makes it look a whole lot better.

I really like the design, just wish it was dark blue instead of white if we were not having sky blue as the main colour.

The full kit has plenty of sky blue in it to be fair, and as "thinking outside the box" goes it's still quite sky blue and tasteful.

I'm not 100% on it but I think I'll grow to like it. Always complain that our kits are boring and we never take chances. I like it when Southampton change their kits, promotion from league 1 was in a very un Saints kit if I remember. Fair play for something different

Hate it more than I have ever hated any City shirt in my lifetime. Toooooooo much white and looks like last year's shirt gone wrong.. And yet I've just keyed in my card details online and parted with £52 for one. #mug!

I hate it even more now. More like a Leeds shirt.

I really like it, should have been the one someone made though with the sky blue at the top. Maybe having a predominantly white shirt will give us a change in fortunes.

I really like it; it's different and aesthetically pleasing.

Sure, there's a lack of sky blue, but it's just preparing us for when we lost the sky blue colouring at the Ricoh...

In all seriousness, maybe it will bring a change in future, maybe it's the start of a new era, maybe we just like moaning.

I think it looks nice. As far as style. The white makes the club crest stand out.

I still would rather it we didn't have that horrible sponsors logo!

I need to see the team on the pitch before I make a definitive decision on it, but on first glance I don't like it much. It's like it can't decide what it wants to be and ends up as a middling nonentity.

Can't say I'm impressed. A little underwhelmed if anything. Doesn't seem to be much imagination about it; just a washed out version of this seasons.

That said, I'll still buy it!

Hoping the away top is better, and wouldn't complain if the design (collar and buttons) was similar to this seasons as I liked that; it was different

I guess the 10-35 year old vote is what counts on it in the end !

It's okay, agree with the sentiment that it should have been reversed and goes back to my earlier point on these off shelf designs rather than something unique to the club. I will still buy it!

Well, it's a 'truly awful' from me.

Most clubs have some sort of distinctive theme to their kit. We seem to cobble something dreadful together every time and get it right about once in five. This is as poor as I can recall sonce the one that looked like it had been used by a painter and decorator.

One of the only times where I look at the kit and say 'that is crap'.

Poor design.

It is a shirt. It's fine. The fact that people are genuinely letting a shirt they don't like affect them is mind-boggling.

Can only assume the designer tried to develop a shirt that fit our sponsor (that has a white outline so went for white as the main colour?) this year, unlike last year where it looked out of place

Is the idea to make our opponent laugh or recoil so we can get past them?

This is truly awful.

There was a fan at Inverness (I think) that designed their kits for a few years. He started sending the club designs and they were better than what the manufacturers did!

FFS if you buy them every year and don't like it fair enough but it's just another excuse for people to have a moan.
The least of our problems at the moment.

Perhaps the away kit will be all skyblue. Can't say that I will be buying this predominantly white effort. Yes it's only a shirt but it's the shirt that represents Coventry City...and this one doesn't.

Positives
+ Works with the sponsor
+ Works as a full kit

Was always going to be a template, good to have picked something out of the ordinary, and got everyone talking.

Not a fan. May have been better if colours were the other way.
