    I've noticed a lot of comments and divided opinion about our new kits. With PL teams introducing 3 new kits at a yearly rate, what would you say has been your personal favourite of the premier league era?

    For me, it has to be the 94-95 away kit, not least because of the strike partnership we had playing in it but also because it was the first season that I was old enough to attend matches and really follow properly. We had a phenomenal team that year, and would've finished in the UEFA spots had it not been for the points deduction imposed at its outset.

    That team was superbly balanced and played the attacking, flowing football we love to associate with Spurs. It was also the last time we finished above the Nomads :frown:

    For those reasons, as well as being a nicely designed kit with a f**k-off great big badge (the way it should be), this one gets my vote. Interested to hear others' opinions.

    You can't beat a Holsten shirt. They were the sponsor for a long time when i became old enough for football so for me they are Spur's sponsor

    I like the purple top in the 2011/12 season
    and was one of very few that liked the brown shirt from the 06/07 season but my favourite is the once worn 125 anniversary shirt

    I generally like the simple kits, so the earlier Premier League Holsten sponsored ones tend to be up there, for me.
    The one with the weird stripes sticks out in my memory though, for some reason, though it was pre-PL.

    With the away kits I tend to like the ones that are a bit different, but still try to keep it simple.
    The black and gold third strip from 08/09 was nice, as were the other two. The Mansion thingy didn't help, though.

    I always liked Holsten and Adidas. They kept it simple but classy with the design and colours.

    For me Under Armour and AIA kits are the worst we have had in my lifetime. Even Kappa kits were better.

    Yes I remember that kit. I got it with 'Carr' on the back. Really nice kit and proof that all the modern pissing around with design and putting bells and whistles everywhere is no substitute for simple and sweet.

    Can't argue against the quality of football played in that kit PNP, but we did look like a page out of a Highway Code manual <yikes>

    The home that year is my favorite home as well. Partly it’s because the Aurasma logo is much better than most. My favorite Spurs kit of any era is the early 60’s away. Next is the same era home.

    I'm trying my best to look at the shirt, but I keep finding my eyes drawn to something else in that picture...

    The greatest midfielder who ever lived touching the nipple of the greatest striker to play while stoned? What about it?

    Yeah, looks fine to me as well.

    I liked the home shirt from the 13/14 season, which had the blue and white HP logo.

    I liked the chocolatey brown shirt from the 06/07 season, was different but in a good way.

    But my favourite probably goes to the blue and white 125th anniversary shirt, it was a nice and simple design and the fact it was a shirt made for a momentous occasion it just stood out for me.

    My Favourite spurs kits have to be the first ones I got, including the Erik thorsvedt keepers top which I literally lived in for a number of years. The Umbro/Holsten combination was perfect + I still drink Holsten, still my favourite beer ;)
