So is this the stunning or boring one?

I would hope for this to be the boring one by Umbro standards. Especially if you factor in some of the Umbro kits that have come out recently. I really like the kits they do for their Brazilian teams, so hope for the 3rd kit to have a little more panache.

I don't hate this kit, I think it looks better being worn than it did on the hanger shot that go leaked. The sleeves work better in a well fitted silhouette than hanging loose off of a shoulder, but I'd say that a good percentage of football fans don't share the same build as a professional player so the overall fit might not be as flattering as it is on the players.

Any guesses how long we'll have to wait the 3rd? Not sure if to get the away or hang fire!

Also, is the store at PPS back open?

Went to buy a home shirt before Saturday's game, only to find that the club shop had none in XL. Certainly won't be buying that away kit ("Meh" is an accurate description). Debating whether to wait for the third kit or just try the shop again before the Boro game.

I actually think it's quite interesting- more to it than the last two season's away kits? That said, it has grown on me.

I’d like it but for the sleeves, it’s like they dyed last years training kit and took a marker pen to the sleeves.

Has anyone actually liked any of the recent Umbro kits? I haven't.

[Mucker1884]

Gross!

 

... and no, that's not the number I'll be ordering!  ?

[minesahartington]

Reminds me of that blue liquorish allsorts that’s always left in the bag

I brought the home kit the 1st day I saw it and wore it to PP 1st game of the season, but the away kit is absolutely vile , the sleeves ruin it for me

So far the keepers shirts have been the nicest bits. Hope the 3rd shirt is more exciting.

Reminds me of the 1996-97 purple puma beauty.  My favourite shirt.  If that was the away kit and bit more purple I'd have mine ordered now.  They do a bit too much to the sleeves now as well.

Each to their own I guess, I quite like it. I’ve always been fond of a blue away kit. 
 

[Mucker1884]

So far, the only one that remotely interests me (and intend to take a closer look/try it on some time soon) is the yellow keeper shirt.  Might be tempted now I know you can get the sponsor-less version.

Usually prefer to opt for training shirts though, so happy to hang on until I know for sure what's available.

Wanted a new shirt this year but won’t be getting that one. Hopefully there will be a third strip but that will also probably be ruined by those horrible sleeves.

Lots of people on twitter liking the kit. 

I think those bright colours are good for players to pick each other out - we always seem to be rubbish when we play in dark tops - so from that point of view I'd say it's a hit.

This unfit 64 year old won't be buying it, though! 

I am holding out for a warm up top - they are brilliant and that jazzy pattern hides a multitude of sins! Not in the shop yet, though.

Absolute beaut! best in years.

I love the new kit, think it’s a cracker …..88/89 reincarnated

Colour is nice but the sleeves are awful
