I need to see our new training range, that's what I can wear around unlike the kit.

I like what Ajax did for the new season, just numbers without names and old logo. Imagine our kits having the old Manchester United football club logo. :drool:

Based off the website. Looks like the Authentic Version ($130) has the stripes:


And the regular version ($90) is plain/dots:



Sidenote: Already starting to grow on me!
That’s so annoying. The subtle stripes make it for me, just a red t-shirt without but who is going to spend £100 on a flipping t-shirt?!! :eek::houllier:

The undershirt combo looks hideous. Bring back long sleeves!

With a better looking sponsor this could have been Adidas’ version of the iconic Nike 07-09 kit.

Whats with the different font typesets for the players names on the back? The website shows that horrible gothic style font as well as the more traditional style...

And I'm confused - is it just the players version with stripes? Really prefer it without the stripes myself...

The official PL font must be used in the PL but for other competitions you're allowed to have an alternative. So for Europe and domestic cups etc

The authentic kit looks class. The replica looks boring shite.


authentic, above


replica above

It's the first time I see such big difference between replica and authentic kits. Normally there's no aesthetic differences bar the badge (stitched vs printed). The authentics are usually just much better fabrics for the athlete's sake. But here you can see the difference is quite visible on the shirt itself and at the collar and sleeve-ends. They are like two entirely different kits to me.

Authentic: £100
Replica: £65

Compare our adidas kits the past few years to Arsenals.. seems like way more effort has gone into theirs - like they've tried to create modern classics whilst ours always has at least one element that just looks a bit off.

There shouldn't be that much difference between the replica and authentic. Seems as if they're wanting consumers to buy the authentic version.l

How can someone not like that United kit. It's beautiful. Might buy one. That Atletico Mineiro one looks absolutely wonderful too.

I've noticed so many of the modern kits have like textured patterns on the authentic version. The England kit definitely did and yes, annoyingly they look a lot higher quality as a result. I also remember the 2016 shirt looking far far better in the authentic version.

The big idea/challenge for manufacturers is to get fans wearing the shirts casually again and to secure the younger audience. For me personally, if I'm spending £100 I'd rather get something timeless, say the treble shirt, from Classic Football Shirts with an Iconic player name on the back.

Stunning kit. Love it.

Got to say, since our red-with-black-stripe disaster, the last few home kits have been excellent.

Guess you have to wait a little while. Both versions are usually available on the United store site

At first glance, not a fan. Just reminds me of this.

That kit was based on the ones Liverpool wore in the 1960s. Our new kit is based on the one we wore in the 1960s.

Here's the thing. United and Liverpool both wore the exact same jerseys in the 1960s: red Umbro 'Real' jerseys.

No surprise that they look similar. If it makes you feel better, we wore them first!

Both versions are on the Adidas site.

I think plenty of people wear them casually, whether that's younger people as well? That said they seem to wear them far more in Newcastle. I wouldn't wear one but there are a few classics I'd love to have in collection. When I used to buy them, authentic kits and replicas look identical. I think Umbro might have changed that - the difference in the badges.

Really disappointing that. Agree with you in that the authentic kit looks amazing, and the replica just doesn't appeal at all; almost looks like a knockoff. Don't want the replica, can't afford the authentic.

Will have to get the authentic. Nicest kit since 06/07.

Surprised how good it looks, definitely our best in a long long time. A lot of that is down to no disgusting Chevrolet logo.
