There was an article on the BBC website about best and worst kits. This got me thinking, what are your favourite and least favourite Saints strips. My personal favourite was the Black kit with the red shoulder part. Least favourite has to be the horrible grey away kit we had, I think it was the year we got relegated from the Championship. The one they used Wayne Thomas to advertise... <doh>

My favourite home kit is this season's home kit. My favourite away kit is this season's alternate kit (yellow one).
 
Yes, this season's home kit has never been an issue for me. It looks very good indeed and smart with its pinstripes. As far as a favourite traditional red & white stripes go, last season's aap kit was excellent. The Brazil kit is the obvious away choice. Saints look brilliant when they start pinging the ball the opposition wearing the alternative colours. I'll always have a soft spot for the early 80's broad red & white stripes, when Channon, Bally, Keegan and the rest of the stars played together at the beginning of Saints most successful era. Hopefully, to be superseded by this one.

I try to forget the bad ones. I grew up when the kits were getting smaller, so I generally don't like to see the players running around in tents and ultra baggy shorts. Hooped socks are also to be discouraged, and sadly, there have been a lot of those over the years. Coloured boots are beginning to grow on me though, whereas once I was a staunch supporter of the black boot look only.
 
If we don't have a more traditional kit next season, I will be a little disappointed.
 
The home kit the year we lost to Arsenal in the cup final (stripes with black outline) but I also like the Pony 'massive tick' kit, just brings back good memories.

Ok the memories is one thing, but that Pony kit? Well, it was just that, "Pony"

Better hope that Stoke and Sunderland go down, then; we cannot be allowed to play in the traditional kit while they're in the Prem, because years of conditioning among neutrals have led them to associate certain expectations with red and white stripes, and the contrast could cause severe disorientation and confusion.
 
Funny thing about the stripes, I always loved them but you just don't associate stripes with success.

I's like to see more or less our current kit with the white just a tad wider. ("Tad" being a taylor/dressmaker term obviously!).
 
Before my time but is this a look we'd like to see come back?
