Paul Mellelieu Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 Well, there's nothing wrong with it, which in my book makes it a winner. 1 Quote

CD_93 Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 That rose looks real nice. We'll be seeing that again. Quote
windymiller7 Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 I like it. As others have said, at least there's a "uniqueness" about it with the rose detail rather than the stock offerings of late. Would prefer reversed halves but I suppose it means we won't have the halves/quarters argument this season! 😅 Quote
Miller11 Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 Seems the overwhelming response is positive, which should mean we sell a load. I’m not a big kit buyer, but for me Rovers colours should always be reversed on the back. That’s my gripe. I’d also be interested to see what the overall quality is like as my experiences with Macron in the past haven’t been good. I like the rose detail on the blue section though. Some nice touches, but a bit far away from tradition for my liking. 2 Quote
perthblue02 Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 1 hour ago, rog of the rovers said: Its almost perfect, would have preferred opposite sleeve colours, but a solid start from Macron. I'd guess the away might be the same design, but in red and black? Intrigued to know what colour the socks are, and also the goalkeeper shirts to come. 7/10 On the Rovers website it says the socks are blue with white top band and shorts are white with blue stripe 1 Quote
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 Yep,proper halved Shirt this one...looks ok and Rose a nice touch👍 Quote
alex l Posted July 23, 2021 Author Posted July 23, 2021 From the macron site. May want to size up! Quote
Gumbi Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 It's a nice shirt. I would have preferred though it if the sleeve colours were reversed and the halves on the back were reversed. Having the way it is though does mean that it's a fair bit different to what we've had before. Given that Macron change the design in some way for all their kits, I can see the away having a different collar at the very least. The embossed rose is a very nice touch though. Quote
Iceman Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 to be fair, its proper halves though. Reversed means we should technically call it Blue and White Quarters and Not Blue and White Halves Quote
Backroom Tom Posted July 23, 2021 Backroom Posted July 23, 2021 Love it and love the extra effort and non generic design 6 Quote
Commondore Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) Big fan! The rose is maybe a bit much, but the shade of blue, the collar, and the understated Macron logo are all lovely. Edited July 23, 2021 by Commondore Quote
DeeCee Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) Don't like the collar or non reversed back but a genuinely decent effort. Tbh though I prefer the concept kit that Fudge Dread posted earlier. Edited July 23, 2021 by DeeCee 1 Quote
Sparks Rover Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 I want more red in the kit. My very first Rovers scarf was red white and blue. Red on the v collar for me. 1 Quote
Oldgregg86 Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 I really like it . The picture of the three kits earlier on in the thread are all stunning . I’d buy all three of them . 1 Quote
MarkBRFC Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 I really hate that the halves aren't reversed on the back. Just smacks to me of no attention to detail of how the kit should look. 3 Quote
1864roverite Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 As ever club can’t please everyone🤬 looks decent to me will have a good look at it on Wednesday v Leeds 1 Quote

Bit of an over reaction 😂 I don't get why anyone would care about reversed halves on the back 🤷 The correct blue colour, simple kit, will definitely be getting one 1 Quote
bluebruce Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 It's... ok. The roses on the blue I like, but I'm not a fan of: no collar, no reversed back, no reversed sleeves. 3 Quote

Away one probably will too (big fan of red and black halves) but interested to see what the away offering looks like. Quote

I would be more bothered about the barriers currently hampering the club from going for promotion. Although I suppose I am particular about the colour blue that's used, even though some spoke of tradition and the lighter blue being the "traditional" choice. It's the royal blue all the way for me.

Don’t like the collar, the lack of a reversed back and sleeves doesn’t fit in with my view of what a traditional Rovers shirt should look like. They got the blue right though. The “ Spray on fit “ will go down well in East Lancs. Do they come in “ Dart Player “ size ? Edited July 23, 2021 by Tyrone Shoelaces 6 Quote

It's not even just tradition for me with those features - I simply think they all look better. Quote
