This is the correct answer.
There's no problem with the shirt itself, but the fact it exists instead of a proper womens fit replica is bad.
You misread what I said, I know we use different typeface in the Champions League and Europa League but normally we use the Premier League one in the domestic cups.

Edit: apparently not that either!
Maybe we don't in the cups.
We (and I believe Nike clubs in general) haven't in the domestic cups. Adidas started doing it around 2011 IIRC and the clubs with other kit manufacturers soon followed suit.I think it's always just been the capital one cup.

Yeah, I know arsenal did it and they're with Puma.
Love the new shirt. There are aspects that could be better, but the main thing is its not a bloody polo shirt!
Well we have no Women's team. So if they made a woman's version of the men's top it wouldn't be a replica. The true replica is the men's shirts. Woman who have a problem should just get a men's shirt in their size. It would look fine.
Anyone bought / seen the long sleeve version in person?
How do the sleeves actually look - does it look like a poor extension to the short sleeve and ruin the kit, or is it ok in person?

I bought the long sleeve and it looks and feels great for me, I prefer it over the short sleeve for sure.
I'm thinking of buying that dark blue training shirt. 47 dollars is not that bad, but I'm already in such big expenses and in a process of buying a flat.. But its so beautiful.. 
Exactly. I hope we start using European fonts in domestic cups. The PL font is a lil boring.
Arse and Chelski both used European fonts in the CS.
Seems a shame there's a fuss about the women's shirt, when there seems little that we don't have a womens team.
If they don't like the neckline can't they just buy the blokes?Apparently there's outrage (that word again) over the neckline on the women's shirt...

Don't see what the fuss is, it doesn't even show cleavage. But who am I to disagree with this twat?

"Horrendous and sexist."
Is there really a fuss though? It just seems like a few people trying their best to be offended as vocally as possible. I mean who really gives a shit?
This is the problem with twitter. It gives any idiot and their bad opinions a microphone.
I just showed the missus and two of her mates and they said "it's a fecking football shirt why are we looking at this?"
... but they certainly didn't think it was sexist. I bet there are loads of girls who like.
Read their other tweets, they were just joking. Newspapers picked up on it so they could generate outrage clicks.
exactly my thoughts
I was talking about the newspaper reports rather than that tweet to be honest. If the report was based on that tweet then feck me, I'd expect better from Hello or OK magazine.
I think all clothing garments made for women should be identical to their male counterparts, and vice versa, to ensure they aren't sexist.
Starting with United brand swimwear, which will now be a just a pair of shorts and no tops for both men and women.

Middle class, first world, tumblr posting, white women problems.
The type of people who claim to be oppressed when they can't post a nipple on instagram, but get offended when a neckline is one stage above showing cleavage.

We should do Man United thongs for the ladies. I know what Mrs BwuK would be getting for xmas.
It'll probably go well with her Fellaini wig.
I agree with her point as she wanted it to be near identical with the 83 style collar. If she was a true feminist she'd say there should be a unisex kit for males and females.
Somewhere in a parallel universe, probably near Newcastle, there are some Geordie Shore wannabe blokes who are loving the the lowness of that female kit and are green with envy.

So, you mean this universe?
Whats the difference between the adizero kit and the replica?
Adizero is the player version whereas the climacool is the fans version. They're both of course replicas of the real shirts the players wear.
adizero uses slightly different material and the badge isn't sewn on using a patch
The adizero fabric is a lot lighter and is meant to dry quicker / cool you down quicker.
The training top (dark blue and red with AON on the front) is adizero, but is only £30 whereas the adizero jersey is £90!

Mrs Bwuk need a bit of a wax does she?Not really worth the extra money!
Anyone have a link that says when the away top is out? I read 14th on here but haven't seen anything on Twitter or from United to suggest that.

Next Saturday if Dave leaves.
I've not bought a football shirt since 2008, they're really not something I wear these days, and yet I sort of want the new kit. Have I been a victim of the ridiculous marketing? I feel like an absolute sucker.
He'd probably still be better than the alternatives. Sign him up!
Even though I found myself getting chatted up by the girl in my local sports store at the United Adidas display, I resisted today. Went and bought a Springsteen vinyl instead. The marketing has gotten to my subconscious, can't stop thinking about it. Must. Be. Strong.
I don't really get the fuss that is being made over the women's shirt, surely girls will want something a bit more girly? If not they always have the option for the men's shirt.
I have seen lots of people wearing our new top and it looks nice, in asda today some sweet kid had the full kit on, i bet he has worn it everyday since it was released

Nike sometimes offered the authentic players version of the kit alongside the replica - in that instance the authentic was the same as the one the players wore.
Not sure about the adidas one, but would assume it would be the same as the on pitch one - not sure why it would need to be different.
The biggest difference between them would be the fabric (both in terms of technology, manufacture and/ or construction) and also the finishes - such as additional ventilation, or bonded badges, rather than sewn.
I don't like it, TBF it is ugly, but i don't care either because we will probably never wear this kit. Well i hope we will not.
