Next seasons kit.... (3 Viewers)

Monzo is Gary Hoffman as well isn’t it?

No.

[Bertola]

Assume Monzo would see us ending ties with CBS? Would be odd to have two banks on the shirt.... If so, I imagine KoS moves to the back of shirt sponsor?

The issue with Hummel shirts is most blokes are a 40 chest and their sizings ignore this.

Medium 38-40 Large 42-44. No 40-42.

Fucking weird and annoying as you end up
With a really fucking tight medium or a baggy as fuck large.

Don’t really get it.

As for the white striped home kit this year-should never have been signed off by the club-atrociously designed and embarrassing-considering the previous years excellent offering.

The material was substandard too-club asking for cheapest and basic shirt so that profit margins larger.

I used to work in the clothing manufacturing industry and we’re talking probably around a fiver a shirt to make-tops.

Blackout shirt-again cost saving 1 colour print-especially if badge and sponsor not ironed on transfer.

Will wait and see but can’t see it getting any better next season-prepare for more tat.

The size bandings are not a Hummel issue. 38/40 (M) and 42/44 (L) is standard for almost every kit we've had in my lifetime (since mid-80s) apart from the classic 'jumbo' era Ribero!

The issue I do have with Hummel is the inconsistency of the sizings. The medium this year is way bigger than the medium from 22/23.

He’s the CEO…..

Edit: he’s the chairman.

Yes, you’re right, I thought he’d left a while ago for some reason.

he did also take up the role of chairman of the cbs arena company

Wonder if there's anything in the stadium agreement about sponsors / advertisers. Can't imagine Frasers would be too impressed if we had Klarna as a shirt sponsor seeing as they've got Fraser Plus branding everywhere

They can pay more to stop it then.

Malaga have had some decent Hummel sky blue kits recently.
Not really any Coventry kit we've had before, but this was a recent anniversary shirt

I remember one season they also were subjected to the exact same Nike Tesco carrier bag home shirt we had

I hate stripes. Always have. Always will.

What I hate about Hummel is the cheap plastic stick on bits. In this day and age just screen print the whole fabric.

Agree with this. I ordered a training top and the badge fell off after the first wash; it’s easiest the worst quality manufacturer we’ve had.

I usually like our striped kits (particularly the combination with navy shorts), but think there's just too much going on with this years home kit. And the v-neck looks off

 

[SHUNT31]

Monzo is Gary Hoffman as well isn’t it? So makes sense.
they’ve/he’s got a box at the CBS all liveried up.

so if it is then as the main sponsor I’d imagine KoS moving to the sleeve or something?

Hoffman is also on the board of the arena too isn’t he?

 

[ajsccfc]

The thing I dislike most about our kits this season is the mixed of stripe/checked front and plain back. I thought it was maybe some rule about name and numbers being visible but other teams have stripes all over so ours just looks a bit half arsed. Third kit the exception

The third kit is literally the Hummel template one

 

[AJB1983]

Yep and CBS themselves.
to be fair as someone pointed out earlier, wiki has him as former chairman of Monzo but he’s still on there on companies house. And the box has it all over at arena so will be his.

 

[AiS86]

Do we already have ties with Monzo? Spotted it behind Kelly in his interview

 

[ajsccfc]

Yeah but that Denmark kit is an all-timer so it's one of the few templates where I'm happy for us to join the ranks.

It's a shame we couldn't get a better manufacturer. Does anyone know when Hummel's contract is up ? I would of liked Adidas, I really liked their kits from this season

I can't even put into words how much I despise the XL motors logo on the sleeve, it looks so bad

2026 as it stands currently

Quite a bit of negativity on here about Hummel. Has everybody forgotten the Nike template years (2015-2019) and even worse the 9 years of shit we got served up by Puma before that?

 

[Diogenes]

This years aside, Hummels kits are good apart from the stick on badges. I don't get the abuse.

Agreed design wise but I do think the effort that Hummel put in on that side is let down by their crap production quality

I've personally not had an issue with the kits but the training wear is so bad. I've given up getting things like T-shirts and polos because the badges peel off instantly, even on cool washes. Its obvious there is a problem when the kit man is struggling to keep things looking good:

Yeah can't really fault the Hummel designs at all, although there are a few I personally wasn't a fan of.
It's the quality that would be my main complaint really

Ha I actually think that’s Callum’s fault - too much tumble drying at home. That’s the gear they turn up in on matchdays.
But yeah not great - part of the KoS logo on my daughter’s top has peeled away and it’s cos of us putting it in the dryer I think.

To be fair you should never be putting footy shirts in the dryer. Recipe for disaster.

The designs are decent but the quality is shit. Incredibly flimsy, the badges and logos are awful.

I bought an Ajax kit last summer, that was proper quality. Embroidered badge and adidas logo, plus stitched detailing and the material feels far sturdier.

If they didn’t insist on it being red I wouldn’t be too bothered by it. KoS to replace them on the sleeve maybe?

I never put my stuff in a dryer and always wash on cool still had 2 t-shirts peel away. The Kits have been fine so far but those badges applied to cotton have no chance

Yeah, a few seem to have had issues. I must have been very lucky. I've got every Hummel shirt since they've come back plus a few other tops incl the one in that picture and not had any issues whatsoever.

I've worn each of this year's shirts at least weekly as I run in them and they still look good as new.

The big K KoS logo is still shite but I would take it any day over XL motors

It's fabric conditioner that kills them. My kids kits from 3 years ago were all pristine untill I moved in with my missus. The second she put them through a was with fabric conditioner in they went to shit.
