    Thought the kit looked decent in the flesh. We’ve definitely had worse over the years.

    Indifferent to it, after seeing it in the flesh tonight. Although, shade of green is akin to the 2002 world cup kit, which is a big positive for me.

    For the sake of the site here, please don't post any such links on the forum.

    Now, if someone were to back-channel that information somehow, that'd be a shame.

    Orange trim on jersey and gold trim on socks is very disappointing

I suppose in the long run, if the production costs are only marginally higher it still makes sense cause they'll eventually sell when on sale on they'll still sell at a higher price than the regular jersey would have
    Even at €90 for a regular kit, given labour costs of €1.50/hour, where's the rest of the cost coming from?

    thought it looked more like a Northern Ireland jersey seeing it on the players, maybe it's the tone of green

    Yes. The north have traditionally had vertical stripes more so than us.
    I felt the same way about our EURO 2012 jersey which was awful.
    I like the simplicity of this kit but would rather orange stripes than gold (what does gold represent anyway?? people getting the colours of our flag wrong maybe? I know in the past, some religious types favoured green, white and gold because 'white and gold' is the papal colours.)

    And because the lads who wrote come-all-yes back in the day found it wondrous hard to rhyme anything with orange.

    Away kit announced. Much better effort than the home strip tbf.

    I think it's a horrid effort to be honest.
    Appreciate that it might appeal to Celtic heads (whether of Glasgow or Donegall persuasion ;-) ) but I just don't find the appeal of the jersey.
    Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!

    The position of the top horizontal pinstripe in relation to the collar seems to vary, presumably depending on the size of shirt.

    Of the models in the video it look better on the 2 women. For the men it's above the collar and looks a bit weird.

    Reports today that, following complaints from fans about the quality of jerseys, issues with orders, and customer service, Newcastle have ended their contract with Castore early and Adidas will supply their kit from next season

    Aston Villa players were complaining about the kit and the I think the women's team have complained too. Whatever cheap material Castore use seems to make the jersey a sweat box to wear for the players.
