Ther is a link half way down that takes you to a bigger image of it. Granted still not much to go on, and never looks like he may well be right.
 
Ooh, not sure about that black sleeve. I suppose it makes more sense not to judge until we've seen it all, but it looks suspect at the mo'.

Also, if Adidas stick to their usual plan of issuing a template to all the sides with their shirts, the Stoke kit might be a good indication.
 
Yeah it's bound to be the Stoke template. Probably look alright I reckon when you see it close up.
 
Just found this on the Adidas site its the Tiro 13 range,so i lifted it and inverted it on photoshop to give a rough idea as to what it could be like...

Quite underwhelmed with the shirt in that image. I liked last seasons kit a lot ... gold piping very nice .... what;s wrong with just going back to the standard badge on that shirt. Or, at the very least same shirt but replace the gold with black.
 
If it looks like that kit above then id be disappointed. The black arms look cheap as fook and it reminds me of one of fulhams old kits. **** addidas anyway, they have been a total disaster for the swans imo, not being able to order new stuff because of lead up times etc,etc. Last seasons kit home and away was really nice but im starting to think it was pure fluke !!

The away kit is apparently purple isn't it ?

That might be a better bet then the home jersey,the reaction of quite a few has been along the lines of "what the ****.." looks like there will be loads of kit in the club shop this year then!!...<laugh>
 
ive heard a few people say it was purple but don't know 100% same with the sponser which by all accounts is nothing like we expected, wont be long before we see the kits and sponser anyway but I think the way they have gone about all this kit release is crap, just get it out on the shelves asap !! they are giving people too much time to think about how the new shirt looks as opposed to putting on the shelves and mopping up the undicided peoples money or impulse purchasers !!

Anyway what the **** do I know, im no marketing man!! having said that neither are they !...<laugh>
 
Question. Who gives the go ahead and approves the kit design ? if Addidas turned up with al load of **** that looks terrible do we get to tell them no thanks make something better ??

Thoughts on that process ?

I would hope that that is the case; otherwise the tail is wagging the dog. And as for ordering sufficient supply and lead times - fashion houses from Zara on out are designing / producing quick turn around, short runs these days and doing so extremely cost effectively. I see no reason why Addidas cannot find manufacturers to operate the same way - it's not like the tailoring on this stuff is anything special or the cloth that expensive.
 
The away kit is purple with yellow the secondary colour,but iv'e been told the purple looks more like a vivid blue.Hmm let me think,who was it who had a blue and yellow kit
 
But do our club tell them "yes" or "no " I wonder ??

That shocking umbro kit with the grey lines on it was a disaster and the club had loads of them left over, it would be typical Swans to order a lot more kit then turn up with a **** design that nobody wants to buy !...<laugh>

We cant judge until we see the whole thing but im not over confident this kit will be a winner in the fashion stakes :)

I cant wait for us to play in Cardiff wearing a "blue" kit with yellow secondary colours, the Cardiff fans wont know who to cheer for !!...<laugh>
 
Only purple shirt I see on Adidas website is Schalke - http://www.adidas.co.uk/men%27s-schalke-04-3-jersey/V13391_740.html?cm_vc=SEARCH

Quite like it

Norway, I don't think were far enough up the Adidas stable to have ANY clout. I think we get as all ready mentioned the kit templates they intend to produce and they say take you pick. All that would change would be the colours.

Unless your Chelsea and get a 300m deal with Adidas they are the only teams that can make these sort of demands. Were at the bottom of the ladder.
