Mattio Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 Great news - I was really excited when Under Armour signed but they've been a let down with half arsed designs. Hummel have a much smaller group of teams and a history with the club so hopefully we'll get something exciting next season. Really like this Coventry design, so something similar would be great. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Boy Saint Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 No surprise - think Saints were trying to get out of this pretty quickly as UA seemed repeatedly incapable of hitting delivery targets. Talking to someone in the store a couple of years back, not one stitch of a home replica shirt to be seen, yet you could buy one online from the UA shop in Holland (or somewhere) without sponsorship, for a fraction of the £££’s Saints were wanting to charge us, they weren’t best pleased. Bit of a shame as I like their golf shirts, so always knew what would fit. Interesting read on the subject, might explain why popular colour keepers shirts, hit the rack sold out never to be seen again. https://www.footyheadlines.com/2018/01/here-is-one-reason-why-tottenham-did-not-renew-with-under-armour.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB Fry Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 Absolutely fantastic news. I doubt they will start with the Danish kit (assume just a standard stripe next season) but that's got to be coming, maybe 22-23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 I'm indifferent. I quite like UA's stuff in general but they've had a couple of sh*t shows with getting stuff delivered on time and some of the quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintwbu Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 Love Hummel, great training kit and have had a few kits with Saturday league teams and they’re always a good fit. Really happy with it, they’ve got to re-do that Draper Tools kit at some point haven’t they. Maybe we’ll just get an ‘authentic’ retro version to buy instead, like with our own brand kits where we can still use the proper badge and sponsor due to having the rights.

They do have some weird ideas but to their credit they are a well run club too. Should be moving into a new ground (the all wooden stadium) in a few years time too.

Colinjb Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 Fantastic! Cannot wait to see what they produce for us.

stevy777_x Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 You lot are hillarious, there is no guarentee Hummel will be any different to UA. Late 80s kits were maybe good but materials for football kits have changed since then. Quality also depends on what manufacturer is used, whether it is outsourced etc.. we have no idea on all these topics so I m in the wait and see camp.

Chez Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 In general, Hummel kits just look good. Loved their Saints 80s kits - had them all as a kid, even the boots. Hopefully the new kits can offer me a little nostalgia whilst also creating something new. I ma sure they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The replica kits will no doubt be the same as there seems to be an unwritten rule in football that sets the price across the board (ps.I do realise that one or two of the big clubs are even more expensive) ! I would be a bit more optimistic on the casual wear though as their regular range is normally cheaper than the mega prices demanded by UA ! Time will tell but I reckon that it will be a change for the better 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure they do have a smaller group of teams, if anything I think they have more including several in the Championship and lower (Bristol City, Northampton spring to mind, and as shown on this thread a few in Europe - FC Emmen a good example in more ways than one). Not sure the Coventry kit would be good for us as a home design, as it'll look like a blend of red and pink from a distance to rival ManCity's fruit salad away kit.

Badger Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 Generally pleased with the news, just hope they don't employ some retard to design it and uphold the standards of their earlier designs.

doggface Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 Very happy with this news. A couple of people on this forum mentioned that this was in the works, apologies I forgot who. The new home kit which would have been signed off months ago. Again was mentioned by a couple of people as similar to the kit worn in the last league game at the Dell, with a V neck and thin red and white stripes with a black outline. That would likely mean a modern take on this then: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alehouseboys Posted 18 January, 2021 Share Posted 18 January, 2021 (edited) They could do far worse than just bunging a badge on one of their current bulk standard red and white striped shirts.
