It's iconic and just about perfection. Put the badge on and it would be perfect. Jesters? We have them in abundance as owners and management. Or clowns of the Pennywise variety.

Agreed…the first Rovers kit you ever see imprints on your memory & becomes *the* Rovers kit forever… I always had a soft spot for the Asics/CIS one as it was a terrific update of the classic 60’s kit. 1 Quote
Guest Posted July 24, 2021 Posted July 24, 2021 No red on the shirt but kit numbers are red at least Quote

I know we live in different times but it beauty is it's simplicity and no manufacturers or sponsors logo. They did retro versions of the older shirts which were sold in the club shop and they were actually 100% cotton. Quote

Times were different then, we must have worn that same kit for the best part of 10 years ! Imagine that now. I remember the first game we wore it at - Everton at home on the 17th of November 1962. It was cracking match that we won 3-2 after being 1-2 down late in the game. A Bryan Douglas penalty won it in the last minute. He sent Gordon West in the Everton goal the wrong way by a mile in the teeth of a snow storm. Big Fred ran them ragged all afternoon, I think that was when Everton took notice of him. Happy days.

Riversider28 Posted July 24, 2021 Posted July 24, 2021 Apparently, in a bid to fleece our loyal supporters even more, Waggot is pushing to make this shirt compulsory attire if the temperature goes above 20 degrees C. 1 Quote

If I had my way it would still be our kit today and for all time, never to be changed Rovers are renowned for playing in halved (not quarter) shirts and for an away kit (worn only when the opposing team has blue and white) I always liked the black and red halved kit, (with black shorts and socks IIRC) They would be our 2 kits, and that's it 4 Quote

Roverthechimp Posted July 24, 2021 Posted July 24, 2021 Nice kit - shame about everything else... Eerily reminiscent of 16/17 session 🤬 Quote
Gumbi Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) This is the back of the new keeper shirt and the alignment of the numbers is why I won't get shirts printed by the club as they don't seem to understand how to do it properly. It's not the first time I noticed it on our shirts either. Edited July 25, 2021 by Gumbi Quote

Red on the v collar for me. Same thought, just a bit more red as accent color in the collar or sleeve will be make the shirt feels more complete. Now, its just safe. Nothing wrong but just safe. Last season was better imo. 1 Quote

AspRover Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Yeah that 3 is very much an addition to an off the shelf GK kit. I'm a bit concerned if the club has got the placement wrong on home shirts in the past, we must have the easiest kit to get it right with - there's a bloody centre line for petes sake! 2 Quote
