Reebok can still gtfo - A-League Kits Thread

[Bremsstrahlung]

I think there's some pretty amateur photography gone into the snaps on here.

The trim and pants look more royal blue than navy and the gold looks really washed out.

Where's whatshisface who does all the latex photography to tell us about overexposure or HDR too high?

This looks good.

Wow. Massive difference between the two sources. I didn’t even realise there was meant to be a subliminal pattern.
The Twitter pics are much better.

Will consider getting, like most probably for the first time in a decade.
What’s this viva quality/sizing like? Am I gonna be wearing a bedsheet or a compression shirt if I go normal size?

Would’ve liked the away strip to be E and C lines. But don’t mind it. Alternate could have been an E and C tribute also. But would prefer a more navy blue.

Pre match shirt also has a certain appeal. Similar to the Socceroos spew kit.

I feel like the club has had a completely different vibe this off season. The house seems completely in order. Seemingly very good signings, all the right things being said, even the social media team has been killing it like never before. It's been really refreshing and very un-Jets.

But this kit release is back to classic Jets imo. That white background for the sponsor is hideous. Some of the photos look terrible. Who did the sizing ffs they don't even fit properly (at least I hope that's the case and they aren't designed to be a super loose fit).

I really want to like it but it just looks off

Great to see the real Jerks back

I don't like the gold anyway, but this is crap. Surprised they didn't slap a green and brown stripe across the front to please peevee

throwing my ten cents' worth in: if we can get back to a proper shade of gold like the early reebok strips (not those almost tan shades in the supporters' gear options that I think may have turned people off it back then), Jets will be back on track again - even better if we can convince Jets HQ that cinnamon and emerald away is Newcastle Jets true alternative strip, if they need a nytes option just to please nytes fans who don't even go to our games, have it as the third strip we rarely need please...

I'd say last years and this years are pretty spot on for that old champange gold colour

and even better this year as it's our home colour again Stanny, Jets HQ doing something right at the moment

Agree 100%.

Excuse the sh!t tier 5 minute MS paint job, but with this years 3rd kit being a Knights knock off maybe something like this could have been the away kit...

Sadly alot of fans are also Knights fans and like the red and blue

That's a daft reason to like a different codes kit. Next you are going to say you are a closet scum fan because of your love for the Eels blue and yellow?

I don't doubt that's the case at all, the 3rd kit is there for them:

Away kit being E&C means all the boxes would be ticked then.

Newcastle fans who support both clubs generally like red and blue as colours, Not hard to understand, So not sure how its daft as both clubs are in the same city, Same reason Tinkler did to try and unite the fanbases under the one banner etc

I get what you are saying but the way you framed it sounds like they would stop being fans if red and blue went. The same way Tinkler tried to frame "but they are red and blue too so you should support both". Colours of either club should be completely irrelevant.

Pffft - even they don't understand heritage. This is the first Newcastle Rugby League strip:

Ring a bell?

And in 1979 the rep side was emerald and cinnamon (colour a bit off in this photo but I saw it live - sadly I know nearly all these guys first names, couldn't name more than 3 x Knights these days):



Red and blue being city colours is a bit of a furphy - I only remember the Amco Cup side wearing it in the 70s. Blue shirts, white shirts, blue socks with red trim.
