saintwbu Posted 30 May, 2017 Share Posted 30 May, 2017 Wow. The home kit i've wanted for years and it wasn't even my era. I always see the retro version in store and have been tempted by it for so long but this version is absolutely ****ing beautiful, i'm actually in love.

Batman Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 really like them, for once have not bought a top for years. will be getting at least one of these the traditional stripes have gone, i wonder if anyone will boycott? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren2 Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Love these if they're the kit! I grew up with this and the centenary shirt so although I prefr stripes, ad long as we're red shirts black shorts (but navy would be ok for tradition) and white socks.... But I love this one!!

The9 Posted 31 May, 2017 Author Share Posted 31 May, 2017 They look like a really good fake to me. They are using the current template but have taken the bra off, looks fantastic imo. Doubt they would use the same template again for the 3rd year in a row....or would they? http://todosobrecamisetas.com/2017/05/southampton-2017-18-under-armour-kits-leaked/ Thats what I thought at first but there's a LOT of detail in that.

The9 Posted 31 May, 2017 Author Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Contacted the website. They told me 100% legitimate....hmmm They also posted another UA shirt just after from St Pauli. They have a verified twitter with 42k followers. Yeah, todosobrecamisetas.com are legit, they do occasionally get duped though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Like it, apart from the higgledy-piggledy-ness of the collar/shoulder/neck area. Would have been much 'cleaner' if the white band had continued over the top and joined up with the back, but I guess the design is constrained by the fixed panels of material in that area of the shirt.

The9 Posted 31 May, 2017 Author Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Just checked with my source, memory being what it is and all, he's confirmed the home is legit (and he didn't see the away, so no idea what the conversation we were having about yellow/navy, or the wing collar for that matter, was about - maybe keeper's shirt is yellow/navy).

The9 Posted 31 May, 2017 Author Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Oh and FWIW I love the home and think the away is in pretty dubious taste. We will definitely see a third kit for Bournemouth, and will be interested to see what we wear at Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 31 May, 2017 Author Share Posted 31 May, 2017 And to think of the time I spent REMOVING the current collar from the mock-ups... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 31 May, 2017 Author Share Posted 31 May, 2017 If that is the away kit (is it navy or black with ?blue) then there very well could be a third yellow away kit as it would be needed at Newcastle, West Brom, Huddersfield, and Brighton, possibly even at spurs, and of course if we need to change for a cup final. We won't need to change at Brighton or West Brom, they're predominantly blue including the back panel. Newcastle will probably depend on if they go with a white or black panel on the back. Spurs we can wear the away. Bournemouth will be the big problem (and does suggest the 3rd could be for sale and white). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenilworthy Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Oh and FWIW I love the home and think the away is in pretty dubious taste. We will definitely see a third kit for Bournemouth, and will be interested to see what we wear at Newcastle. Since the home kit is going to clash with teams that are predominately all-red and predominately all-white as well as with red/blue/navy/black stripes the away kit is going to see a lot of action. Of course if we are going for the full 1980 effect we could have a special all-red version for West Brom and Newcastle etc. Which doesn't solve Bournemouth - assuming they have classic red and black stripes. Maybe we keep the white cup final shirt going as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time round we had this kit we changed at West Brom, Newcastle and any team in blue and white stripes eg Sheffield Wednesday. Of course that was a long time ago and attitudes have changed. Back then no one would have dreamed that Everton would not change their kit when playing at Manchester City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Like the away kit A LOT. Home kit is ruined by the strange colour exchange of the collar, the filled-in sponsor logo and the odd black-red stripes between the red and white areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krissyboy31 Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 If we are not actually selling a 3rd shirt, then there's no reason they can't keep the white from this year, I would have thought?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey88 Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Home shirt is fantastic if true. Whoever designed the away number should be fired immediately though..... I personally love the away kit.

Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Clearly the staff member I spoke to in the club shop is a liar. She said the away kit was yellow and navy blue. I guess they get hundreds of phone calls about the new kit so just say stuff to wind people up. They're probably sat in the shop as we speak discussing who's getting a prize for giving out the most misleading information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igsey Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Love the home shirt. Is the 'away' shirt definitely the away shirt? Smacks of third kit to me. I might just be clutching at straws, hoping for a navy and yellow away kit though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint86 Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 That home isn't quite right. Think the logo should not be so red. Still nice, but could have been better still. Really like the away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintgeorge8 Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Don't think a lot of the younger fans appreciate the retro feel of the old 80s home kit but I absolutely love it, looks amazing.

Hatch Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 (edited) I really like both of those mock ups, particularly the home.

Nothing outrageous about the colours or the design. It's black/navy and a weird dark green, plus we've just had a black away - not sure why anyone would like it tbh. The potential of needing a third kit is about its only positive point afaic, and that sort of marks it out as a little bit pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 31 May, 2017 Author Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Oh, one thing I haven't mentioned that's worth saying (ish) is the retention of the "five stripes" motif from this season is alive and well with the design on the shirt and shorts.

Dynamo Naive Posted 31 May, 2017 Share Posted 31 May, 2017 Looks like next season's shirt might be closely modelled on the classic Patrick shirts from the mid-80s (if this is to be believed). https://thekitman.co.uk/southampton-2017-18-home-shirt-leaked/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
