Next seasons kit choice?

[Scutterbucketz]

Anyone who wants the shirt but doesn’t want to pay £58 should go to DH Gate, where you’ll be able to buy it for £12 and it will be exactly the same. Obvs you’ll have to live with the guilt that not one penny goes to helping the club out and you’ll probably go to hell.

They accidentally sent me a QPR shirt last year

Away kit to released on the 18th, the day before the spurs game.

Would make sense with it likely being the biggest crowd of pre-season.

I guess they may even wear it in the friendly, what with the home kit being more white than blue and Spurs possibly playing in white.

You could donate £10 to the club, probably more than they make on the sales anyway.

Yeah, I don't think the problem is the price of our shirt - it's the price of football shirts overall.

I hope kit pricing isn't one of the US business models that our new owners will be adopting.

If you think shirts are overpriced here (I tend to agree) you should see how MLS sting fans in the US - between $110-120+ for a 'replica' shirt. North of $160 for an 'authentic' shirt!

And if you're silly enough to jump on the Inter Miami Messi bandwagon, you can expect to shell out very close to $210 for a Men's Inter Miami CF Lionel Messi adidas Originals Blue 2025 Third Authentic Player Jersey!

$120 is about £88 no? So in line with PL clubs here...

To compare with PL Clubs here I think you have to look at the Authentic shirt prices, so more like £120! Also the standard of MLS is probably closer to The Championship than the PL (and that view comes from Dean Smith who knows all the leagues well).

Just been sent a photo - looks like a mockup, but is the away kit orange?

I hope so

It’s out and it’s orange.

Looks red in the release but follow the link and it’s Blackpool with some embellishments.

In brogue we trust

[Pepe the Horseman]

I like it.

[Tinpot Royal]

If it looks like it does on the website, then take my money now.

If it's the colour it is on the release images I'm not so sure

[Esteban]

Is the background image the Huntley & Palmers factory? What's the relevance of the circles?

Our 2025/26 Macron away strip celebrates 150 years of the Town Hall's distinctive clock tower, echoing features of this iconic building in the centre of Reading and the home of Reading Museum.

The Pantone colour code is 'baby shit'.

Thanks

I assume the third kit is going to be Bubble gum pink with yellow polka dots and images of old rocks to represent the abbey ruins

Sounds great. I'd definitely buy a Mr Blobby kit.

[Ascotexgunner]

Is it a tribute to Steve Bruce and Blackpool shitting on us twice last season....

On another note it didn't look orange in the pic the club sent me.... It looked red.

[Sutekh]

Jeez, haven’t they done this sort of crap before with the “iconic” skyline kit? Who keeps having these “bright” ideas?

The away kit looks just the same as last years but in a dusky mandarin(?) with silly circles and lines on it.
