I'm OK with the home one. My first ever shirt back in the 60's was the solid blue with white sleeves and it was always f... ing annoying that the school 'House shirt' for my class that we had to wear for footie was red.
Based on the picture I'm not sure about the yellow one but it may grow on me. For me hard to beat the black to teal one from DCs first full season.
I think this Elev8 brand thing especially with the sponsorship on the yellow one is all about sneaky ways around FFP. Be interesting to see buyer comments on the quality levels.
I was expecting to see the Lacatoni stuff which looked very good on the Portugal trip. .
As you say, we'll see how the quality fairs. Last season kits are still £50 which is a bit cheeky really.
I don't think I'll get used to that away kit, what does our third kit look like anyone?

SS There was a club design a kit competition for the 15oth and the winner was a White Shirt with gold (and blue?) trim. If you look hard enough the winning design may be on OT somewhere. May actually turn out to be the biggest seller !!
Cheers! Will have a gander.
On another not, Neymars wages at PSG are ludicrous!!
30m a year, 596k a week!!!!
No idea! How they can possibly generaythat income to pay a single player. It also sets a precedent for players to demand inflated wages.
It's just disgusting in my opinion.

The thing is they probably will recoup most of the money. PSG are owned essentially by the state of Qatar, the marketing opportunities will be enourmous both in France and in other countries, shirt sales will be huge and they may actually win something, which again brings in big chunks of cash at the level they are at. Plus their owners have the little matter of hosting a world cup in 5 years, again that presents so many marketing initiatives by having one of the best players playing for their team in France and him essentially becoming the face of the tournament due to their ownership of PSG and the fact he is the Brazilian star as well. Sure its a huge amount of money, and will be viewed as obscene but for PSG/Qatar, I would bet they will likely make money over the course of the contract. Only way this will fail for them is the small matter of not winning the CL while he is there!!
Home shirt is ok and the away one will hopefully grow on me. Anyone any idea who Elev8 are ?
