The goalie one is pretty nice and will look good on that guy. De Gea or whatever.

The away kit is lovely and a nice call back to our last time in Europe. The hope kit isn't real.

What power, if any, do clubs have of saying "Absolutely not" to a kit design that their sponsor sends them? I mean, do these clubs even see the design beforehand, or are they just stuck with whatever Nike's interns draw in their coloring books?

it depends :v: honestly from what I can gather it depends on how much rights the teams cede over to the designers. Manchester United's deal with Nike, for example, includes a bunch more image rights than their deal with Arsenal. More rights held by the kit manufacturer = more money for the club, but less chance to pipe up and disagree with things.

Also wicka the Emirates sponsorship is up in 2014 - the stadium naming is longer term, at least for five years more than that. Even if they don't change sponsors Arsenal need desperately to get more money out of them.

In retrospect I guess Nike have held off unveiling City 2012-13 kits because they didn't know if they were going to have gold trim or not.

Bought my home Chelsea kit from the megastore, bought last year's away in Chinatown in Kuala Lumpur.

e: As far as I know the top 5-6 all have American based online shops.

Thanks. I couldn't get Citys site to work with me but it worked Via paypal. $80 for a champions kit ouch, but totally worth it.

Fag Boy Jim, i'd settle with shady kits also or real kits.

Yeah what are some options for Americans if I don't want to spend a lot of money and don't care about my kit having some children's tears on it? (It helps keep the stitching together, fact.)
