[Archived] Rovers unveil new home kit

[Tom]

So Rovers have unveiled the new home kit

http://www.rovers.co.uk/news/article/new-nike-era-begins-885787.aspx

The haves are switched to the original halves to commemorate 125 years of the league forming

Thoughts? Personally I think its brilliant

[Mike E]

Sold!

[K-Hod]

Belting is that.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Excellent, and hopefully no sponsor to spoil it!

[Tom]

I imagine there will be sponsorless option seeing as nothing is announced yet and its out Tuesday

I just hope they do it in infant sizes this time so I can buy my boy one

[Alex Rover]

Oooh that's cracking, great news.

[Torgeir]

Fantastic, love it!

[OJRovers]

Is JR wearing a white under-layer in that pic?

I like it, glad the club has gone back to the correct format of quarters, rather than halves.

Shorts look good with the blue side stripe too.

Looks like quarters to me.

And it looks much the same as it always does.

Wasn't too sure about the halves returning to their original way at first but it does look good. It also makes the club badge stand out a lot more.

[OJRovers]

They have:

a) Reverted back to quarters

b ) Changed the side of the blue, to being on the right rather than the left

[matt83]

Yeah I like this one a lot. I actually prefer it without a sponsor and the halves reversed as they should be. Although with the sponsor not having a one is not only damaging in terms of revenue but a reminder of the reasons we font have one is the incompetence of board room and above.

But decent strip

[Amo]

I'll wait for the non-shooped version before passing judgement.

Nice, I beleive the Blue and White have swapped back for one season only to commerate the leagues 125th anniversary, this was our original way round.

They have a sponsorship deal lined up but it hasn't been finalised yet as there were other offers made.

stylish

Ah. Good to know. Is it a proper one of the princes trust again.

Back to the kit I believe its £42.99. As nice as it is can't see many being sold at that price. But it would be funny to get promoted to have a team who's replica kit costs more than their season tickets.

[savage90]

Luckily it's hard to make our kit look bad with such a simple design, but it has potential to look great. It's very similar to the generic blue and white halved Nike training kit you can buy on pro direct soccer for 20 quid. Never mind Nike always looks pretty sharp and the kit as a whole will look good; that's if you like being a full kit w@*K*%. Thank god they changed the halves otherwise it would have been a little too simple!

[saxo1man30]

like the shirt, don`t like the shorts, they don`t go together well imo with that blue stripe down the side..

also don`t like the nike body-hugging style, sweaty and itchy..

i`ll stick with my shirt from last season thanks..

[Rover_Shaun]

Not keen on the blue being on the wrong side (modern era) Surely they have a picture of the real thing and not just a photoshop mockup?

[donnermeat]

I'm not a big fan of this to be honest, don't hate it or anything. Just......meh.

Edit- just seen Amarillo's description on another thread, my response was in no way a copy lol

Same. Never really been a fan of Nike's styling, I like traditional styles with collars rather than V-neck tshirt thing.

I was hoping they might have gone for the style that used in that speical Arsenal shirt a few years back (the retro looking dark red one) but they've gone for the one I don't really like. I think those styles date incredibly quickly.

Couldn't agree more really, I don't mind a round neck though at a push. I think the shirt looks rather boring, however it's not like I had high expectations for it anyway.
