FCB's new kits, both home and away, are goofy. Watching them play United, not a fan of the airbrushed look.

LULZ @ Nani. Even in a friendly, he has no shame. SMH



ETA That FCB hot garbage strip by Nike is based shares the same template as PSG (which BTW, is a classic and classy look- diametrically opposed to the Barcelona strip).

You're doubly mad at Nani, eh?

And I agree. PSG's look is sweet, while the airbrushed look for FCB is just bad. Their creamsicle road ones are even worse.

I personally ranked all of the new EPL kits for Kicks & Giggs to kick off our week-long season preview: LINK

Figured some of the kit snobs on here would like to read it.

Nice work, agree for the most part. I dig Everton and Arsenal's home kits, and Tottenham is #2 behind City IMO.

If Arsenal had blue instead of black on those sleeves, it'd be stupid class.

Those Everton sleeves...

Tottenham was nice, I just didn't like the silver, especially with the white.

Umm, ours are blue, not black.

And you severely underrate our away kits. They've grown on me.

They look black to me in the pictures I've seen...maybe I should say a lighter blue, like the one on the crest?

I'm sorry, but the purple ones are just bad to me.

LINK Some of the pictures they do look navy. Never thought they were black though. It's based off and old red, white, and blue sock we used to wear. And the Home kit unveiling party was called "A Red, White, and Blue event" or something like that.

I hated them at first, but they've really grown on me. Not great, but I like them.

It says they're "Obsidian" which seems like it'd be darker than those previews. It is a blue of some sort though.

I changed it to say "royal instead of dark blue accents".

The purple ones look SO much better in the pics from the training camp/games

I actually like them now.

I understand. I went from disliking the gingham MUFC kit to wanting one.

So this thread can probably be taken off sticky status right?

Oh, that tingly butterflies in the stomach feeling.

Good luck to everyone this season.

The next person that replies can choose the next kit I purchase (semi-legit and no Man Utd/City/Chelsea/Everton).
