Concept football kits

[Heardy]

What’s the best concept kit you’ve ever seen?

It always amazes me that average fans seem to come up with better designs than adidas or Nike who tend to work off limited templates.

Wow. That's the best looking kit I've ever seen!

It’s definitely up there for me - given the price of kits now, they really should do better in terms of design, particularly regarding how unique each clubs kit is.

Its shit seeing clubs in a colour variant of a pretty basic template.

That’s unbelievably great.

 

[Zlatan 7]

That’s an amazing kit that would struggle to be beaten when they renew it.

maybe they constantly make basic crap kits so the next one has a chance of being slightly better or not dreadfully worse

I never understood why we never matched the gold off the Chevrolet logo.

Big fan of his Inter kit too.

Oh my...

That’s an absolute stunner, that.

Coming to the realisation that modern kits have too many limitations.

Club sponsor must be x size
Must be colour in some cases
No changing the club badge
Can't put certain designs on the sleeves in case it interferes with the sponsor

Big fan of his Inter kit too.

Big fan of that one too! I wonder whether they’d simply be too expensive to manufacture something like that, but when you can buy the Adi-zero versions of kits at c.£100 a go they should do better.

Looks like regular kits with gold trims.

come on - they’re so much better than that, the level of design and detail are miles apart.

Compare that Argentina kit to this

Villa really need something inspired by their black green and red kit from the 90s.

Has one of the major brands ever revealed how they come up with the designs for their kits?

Looks breathtaking. I’d assume that the cost of a kit comes into play as well — a kit that detailed would force a much higher production price (although if we’re talking about a kit that can become popular in a much wider audience than the one originally targeted, it’s this one).

A very aesthetically advanced octopus picks random balls that represent main and supporting kit color and one of default patterns.

It's a beauty but you wouldn't be able to see the numbers and letters on TV or from the cheap seats for that matter.
