Yes, it would have looked better (slightly) but it would have cost a lot more to produce that fabric than to print a pattern onto their normal stuff.Thankfully the kit will just look red from any distance. What they should have done is repeat the process they used on the 2007-8 shirt, where the 'stripes' were made with a sheen. Not sure if that's from the stitch pattern or what, but if they used that technique to make a sheen checker pattern I think it would look much much better.
Surely these Nike bozos run these kits by an audience like movies are with test screenings, to see if everyone hates them before they roll them out in production.
I own that shirt in black and red, and have never once realised that pattern!Thankfully the kit will just look red from any distance.

I got given that shirt from a bird I was shagging who worked for AIG. She said everyone who worked in her office got one. No wonder the company was in such shit.
Last time I looked at the photo of our new kit, I'll be honest I didn't like it.
But now I think I'm getting used to it.
Getting used to how abhorrent it is.

Would make sense. The profit on shirt sales would be enormous if it cost a quid to make 100 quid to sell. There has to be well over a million shirts sold every season? Or is that being unrealistic..
Bet you isparky's left ball sac that come next season, the vast majority will say, you know, that kits not half bad. Like the 09/10 kit with that ugly arse black chevron.
I'd rather it be a table cloth, than the fecking power point slide background that Barca have.

i'll bet they don't run them past anyone but United officials. what we see is United's decision.
I suppose there have been tons of much uglier kits, especially in Italy. I'd almost rather it was extremely gaudy instead of just looking tacky. They could at least picked a plaid pattern that's more interesting than a tablecloth.
Word is this is the leaked GK shirt...
