Both my two Korean teams have new kits for the season.

Suwon of the K-League (1st division)

home


Its got some nice little details on the back too:

On the back of the collar is a representation of Hwaseong fortress, which is the landmark for the city.


On the bottom of the jersey is a small tag that says 'Football Capital' (a gently caress you to Seoul)


I like the away kit more though



and my other team, Bucheon 1995 FC of the K3 League

I love that Suwon kit, I've had a soft spot for them since they played Chelsea a couple of years back in a pre-season cup.

I thought there was some rule in the Premiership whereby a team had to keep their kit for two full seasons. Clubs got around it in a way by staggering the launch of their home and away kits for alternate seasons so they had a 'launch' every year.

But Liverpool only had that grey away kit for one season. And I think Middlesbrough change their home kit every season. How are they allowed to get away with this? :colbert:

Which team has had the most number of kits in the last 10 years, I wonder? I bet most people would say United, but I'd go for Boro.

It's because we will use the grey one as our Euro one probably. Which was Green this year.

I always thought there was a similar rule, but there isn't.

United and Chelsea both have new home shirts this season and I'm almost certain both changed them last season, United certainly did.

As you mentioned, I seem to remember talk of a rule about 15 years ago when United were changing their shirts more regularly than other clubs.

Just bought a Deportivo La Coruna shirt for a tenner, aswell as this seasons Marseille shirt which I've been looking for a while for £20. Needed to get myself some new shirts for training in, and I like both of these. I got them from M and M direct, which seems to be some sort of sale outlet thing, they have a few other shirts on sale too, including both liverpool away shirts from this season for £15, and a rather tasty silver newcastle shirt.

There's a Bassano shirt there too for £15 which was quite nice:

Oh. Shows you what I know.

In fairness, football shirts are much cheaper in real terms than they were when I first started taking interest in football as a small child. Then, in around 1988-89, you'd have to buy the whole kit (in a loving box no less) and it would set you your dad back the best part of £40. I got the green Chelsea away kit the season they got promoted from Division 2. :unsmith:

I'm pretty sure they did. If I remember correctly, they changed in 07/08 to the one to commemorate Munich and then again this season. I could be wrong though.

There's no rule, Adidas' contract even requires Chelsea to replace all 4 each year (if you count goalie).

Looks like the blue pint-stripe Arsenal away kit has been confirmed and I think for once I might not actually buy the new kit because I find it staggeringly ugly. Maybe seeing the team actually play in it will change my mind, kind of like the old gold SEGA away kit from 01/02

The entire kit is class, but the shirt does look a bit like Nike simply pulled a shirt out of the Tiger Woods line and slapped an Arsenal logo on it.

I guess it could be small numbers in which they are produced? I'm not sure really. The Suwon official store used to sell "official " knockoffs on their website and on gameday but Adidas found out. :(

What's the deal with the collar? It looks like a golf shirt as Theo is wearing it at different heights on each side. It's just weird looking. Other than that, I gotta say, I really like it (especially since the shorts are the same color as the kit). I just don't see the real hate for it. It's far better than the lovely Adidas template.

The City leaked pictures are confirmed, but still no official pictures until 1 June. Come on City sort it out! Also the shirts are apparently going to be £40 which is a loving rip off, but I'm still buying the red/black stripe on white one, which is apparently the 3rd kit not the 2nd. Shame, it's lovely.
