We are apparently releasing next seasons third kit on the 9th of May! It's the blue and gold kit, very much looking forward to see it.

The pink away kit will be released in 18th September, while the home kit will be released in 17 July.
The home kit should be revealed before the end of the season so we can see it for the first time on the final day like many other teams do.

I’m pretty sure that red kit in the video is our new kit. There were those pics of Sanchez who was wearing it.

The dubious bit is Tinder on sleeve. I know there were discussions of Tinder being our sleeve sponsor earlier on in the season but don’t know what happened after that?!

Love the word parley being featured and that my club cares about the planet.

Ya i'm with the fashion police here. Could have done a better job. basic feckin color coordination !!
Why not do gold lines or something?

Surely that makes sense! You've got the gold badge. The Adidas logo. The Chevrolet is gold etc.

Everyone knows navy and black is a no go. Even the farmers here in Ireland stopped making that rookie mistake.

The concept Navy kit was so much nicer, I don’t think it’s a push to say 99/100 people would agree with that so why can’t adidas themselves get this right?

Was there any difference other than gold stripes instead of black? I'd prefer gold too, but still think it looks beaut with black.

This is the third kit:





Very disappointed. Not a fan of the pattern, and expected more gold details. Instead we got three lines in blue on the sides again.
That's absolutely spot on. Love it.

Great colour combo married to an incredibly basic and uninspiring design together with a pointless afterthought of a pattern. Not impressed with this one.

With you 100%. This kit had huge potential. It still kind of looks good due to the navy and gold, but nowhere near as sexy as it should be. Most of the concepts blow this away. Also this version of the shirt looks baggy as feck, needs to be slimfit to have any chance of looking decent on the players.

Gold trim on the collar and sleeves looked beautiful

Yeah, the concepts are almost always better which always leaves you disappointed when you see the actual design. This is also the replica version hence the looser fit. The authentic version will probably look really nice on the players.

Wondering what everyone was going on about with the navy and black talk. Then realised I had f.lux on. The kit looked pale dark green to me. Pattern looks better in the actual blue colour anyway. At least that one has some class to it.

But there is no black on the kit. It's navy and dark blue.
From those pictures, it looks black to the naked eye. Also the colour looks like a different shade.

This had so much potential imo!

The kit designers seem determined to minimise any blending of the Chevy Logo with the rest of the kit. Another missed opportunity here.

Why do fan mock ups almost always look better?
Probably because fan mockups are usually designed to draw the eye away from the Chevrolet logo onto the rest of the kit, which is why it appeals to fans so much.

To be fair- that's probably more because of Chevy demands than anything else.
Yeah I agree. At this rate, I'm going to level my expectations for the pink kit.

Yeah, the colour combinations are ok but I don't like the dot (bubbles?) pattern, and the mock-up (as usual) looked a lot nicer. I wasn't a huge fan of the Nike kits of the last few years but I've also been pretty disappointed by most of our adidas kits so far

The blue one looks like a mock-up the Chevy logo isn’t accurate at all.

Like that 3rd kit. Not as good as it could've been, but still good and the Chevy logo isnt completely dreadful with those colors.
The pink kit will be horrendous. Also not a fan of the home kit. Why so many black stripes on our home kit? They try too had to be different.

Away kit released over a month into the new season?? Why so late? Cant remember when it's usually done.

People, all I want to know is when does the Chevy sponsorship end?

Can't wait to see that gold and chrome abomination off the United jersey.
