I like everything a lot but the sleeves are a bit weird. They're a bit garish aren't they? Makes it interesting but they'll take some getting used to.

That'd look good if they took the gross shit off the shoulders and put the stripes where they belong rather than on the side.

So basically if they completely changed it.

I hate all away kits that change the colours of the badge into a "scheme" approtiate monotone. They always look like cheap training tops.

I like it.. Apart from that weird blockbuster shit all over the shoulders, the neither blue nor black stripes, the one colour badge, the logo, yeh its white, nice.

Looks great and I love the metaphorical message in it being a Lizard skin design "shedding the skin of the last 3 years and revealing new scales for a new era under Jose":drool:

I've got the blue shirt and the Chevy logo isn't that bad up close in my opinion. As for this, would need to see it in one of our movie promos to get a feel for it.

Gotten used to the Chevy logo and it doesn't ruin the jersey anymore to my eyes.

It would be a great top if it wasn't for the stuff on the arms. I wonder why they decided to go with the honeycomb pattern anyway, it doesn't really add anything. I have nothing against bees or blockbusters but it ruins our lovely white kit.

On a side note, at least the Chevrolet logo doesn't look to bad on it.

I like it, even the sleeves. I wasn't a big fan of the thick stripes as it looked too similar to Bayern.

Not a fan of the monotone badge. It almost becomes the least important part of the shirt, when in fact its the whole fecking point of it.

I think once you reach the point where you're older than any of the players who actually play for the team, it's probably time to stop wearing jerseys because you're gonna look a bit goofy.

But if wearing the jersey makes you happy, wear it, by all means.

Once you are that age though you are past the point of having people tell you what or what not to wear unless you're married and your wife forces you on one those Gok Wan shows.

If people want to wear a kit, that's their business. Likewise if somebody doesn't want to wear one, that's theirs.

If some kit fanatic came on here and started telling grown men that they MUST wear a football kit, i'd find them as weird and insecure as all the ones on here telling people they can't.

I think you just have to worry about having your own name printed on the back or not. Once you reach 10 that's a no-no.

Collect various kits so will usually get one or two United shirts with different names on the back per season. Do I wear them when I'm not watching United? No not very often. Occasionally to the gym if my normal gym stuff is in the wash but that's about it.

Don't see why people seem to have an issue with other people buying/wearing football shirts. It's far more childish to take such a ridiculous attitude about something that doesn't in any way affect you than it is to wear a bloody football shirt.
