Whilst I get all the nice touches, it doesn't do it for me. It's not a bad kit (I'll happily give that prize to the 08/09 kit), I personally prefer all the kits we have had since then to this one. And that's just a personal thing that I've felt underwhelmed by it. Hopefully I'm in the minority and we sell sh*t loads of them! I agree, I preferred the Macron kits. Is it a healthy lifestyle thing that we seem to have less chocolate? The kit may redeem itself if the players names and numbers are brown. ‘Come on you ambers with a subtle hint of chocolate’!

I agree with the comments from Andy k.also with halfimet. Question. Who designed or thought of the strip?

I think it is ok, but why are the socks amber and.....BLACK? Clueless...

I quite like it. It's not too far from the previous vibe. I think the nostalgic quarters and year print on the waist area are nice touches.

I'm really not sure on them... I think the Macron ones are better.
The three GK kits are boring as f***.
The socks being Black is a real f*** up and I hope come the new season O'Neills pull their act together and actually make them Chocolate.

Bucks your talking rubbish. Why can’t the club Jas up the kit and make it stand out, also it dose not alway have to have the same colours on it. This is twenty twenty two by the way.⚽️⚽️⚽️

This is twenty twenty two by the way.⚽️⚽️⚽️ Our colours are chocolate and amber. Not black. That's like Cardiff ditching their blue to go red. Incidentally they said O'Neills are reproducing the black third kit. Will they still include all the names?

Don't think the socks are black from the pics i've seen. A very dark Chocolate i'd say
As an aside the other thing i'm drawing from these pics is that the players are all safe and signed up for next season. You don't do a photoshoot with players that are a flight risk!

You don't do a photoshoot with players that are a flight risk! I don't know about that. I remember Nigel Martyn being in the pictures for Palace's new 1996 Adidas kits, and a few weeks later he was off to Leeds. 🤣

Is it me or do the women's kits look enormous on them? (Bad news for me, as the women's ones don't go down to my size...on a positive note, it's BRILLIANT to see women's sizes on offer at last...at least they will fit proper women as opposed to half-pint-sized ones, and I mean myself not the players!)

The kits were all a little on the big size for the players, as there was only 3 of each colour available and they were in the same sizes (M, L and XL) in the fan, not athlete, fit. There weren’t any in the womens fit for Cindy and Zoe to wear.
I was informed the black shirt would also have the names on the back again.
Can also confirm the home socks were definitely not black, just a very dark shade of brown.

Socks are definitely appear as black, which I suppose is a bit odd. Maybe it's a recognition to our special black tops? I imagine it must have been something discussed and not overlooked by the club. That said, it does not bother me when looking at the whole strip. I will probably buy a top.

Thanks for clearing that up Paul - I didn't think they looked like women's fit shirts at all and was a little disappointed, so I'm quite glad to hear they weren't meant to be

I assume they couldn't find any green socks for Louis to wear with the away kit - amber just doesn't work with the green.
