newco rangers 2k12/13 will have a skull on a cross marked INLA, also fluorescent orange flame decals

I suppose, seeing as Norwich are staying in the premier league at least another season, I should get a newer shirt than the one I bought when we were in League 1, but I hate the stupid polo-shirt-style collars they have, like you could wear it to some formal event. Might have to go for a goalie shirt, but then there's the annoying long sleeves. Maybe I'll just buy a yellow t-shirt.
xpost: I hadn't considered that aspect. As a NewCo they're free to do whatever they want with the kit without any obligation to the old color scheme. Either go straight-up Jockey style with some spots and satin, or maybe green and white hoops...

wait you have the only shirt in the league (prob the country) with a proper collar and you don't like it?

The newco shirt is already out btw. They've gone for all-royal-blue, with an RFC badge, rather than e.g. the historical hooped design. In fairness it's a pretty great strip, except for the sponsor's name which is tucked small under the badge for some reason.

Man, that's an embarrassing pic of tubby Holty, and the spare tyre isn't even the most embarrassing thing about it. I wouldn't hate the collar so much if it wasn't just a bit of fabric stitched at the neck (which I'm all to aware is pretty much the definition of a collar), but it's still the same high-neck round hole, but with a bit of fabric stitched on. Though a proper collar would probably look at little too rugger.

wing-tip collars have never really been done, and I can't recall too much variety in fasteners

Is this a concerted effort to adopt purple as a club colour? There were polo shirts in a similar design kicking around a year or two back.
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 12 July 2012 10:18 (twelve years ago) link
I quite like the big cuffs xps, certainly compared to that ludicrous cardigan v-neck they had - but they'd be better with an authentic shirt-sleeves-rolled-back look, like what I'm rocking at work today.
― Ismael Klata, Thursday, 12 July 2012 10:22 (twelve years ago) link
nah, it is just nike doing stupid shit the fans don't care for. internet reaction has been p much all negative, the same way it has been for most things they do. (most fans want a conservative red w/ white arms home kit and a yellow away kit, although will accept an alternating yellow and blue kit each season. conservative thinking here makes sense, considering only one of the 20 stupid out-the-box limited-edition different ideas nike has had in the past decade has looked good or made sense, the redcurrant last highbury kit.)

I did order some official Arsenal merchandise last week in an early strike for my dad's birthday, which was a jacket a lot like that ^ (model: my dad). It's actually pretty swish, I was expecting to be ripped off in some fashion, but no.

Club officials insisted they liked the 'innovative' shirt, but Hummel's reaction was more plausible.
The company pointed out it had only ten days to come up with two new kits after taking on the contract at the last minute.

rifling through the family home cupboards i found this beauty:

(southampton away 1981-83, the darker colour is more browny than it looks there.)
unfortunately it seems to be pre-teen sized, i'd have to have my ribcage compressed to get retro fashionable with it. but i also found
http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3078/2556860304_00fccbf1e6.jpg
which is grown-up sized (ricken 18 on the back), so i'll be taking that with me for theoretical kickabout attire.

I don't know how I ended up with the classy foreigner rather than the local hero, but it was for the best - a shirt celebrating a current Celtic player wouldn't have lasted long with my brothers around.

There are also some listings for “Hockey Shirts” and “Ladies’ Hockey Blouses.” But as you can see on the next two spreads, these don’t look anything like 1930s hockey sweaters (and besides, hockey wasn’t popular in the UK in the 1930s, was it?). I believe these jerseys were for field hockey. Take a look:

I like 'em, though the collars look like they've been inexpertly photoshopped.
Of those I've seen in the flesh, the new Barca is good; the new Liverpool's quite swish too, but imo a downgrade from this year's.
