    I'm guessing diagonal stripes, one solid, one broken, one solid etc.

    Looking forward to Gosling modeling the new kit whilst signing his new 3 yr contract.

    So, it'll be yellow with a bit of black in it? Who'd have guessed? No doubt at an exorbitant price for a bit of cheap polyester tat. With yet another betting company's name splashed across the chest. Marvellous!

    Don't forget the away kit and thoroughly necessary third strip too.

    At last a shirt you can buy without the sponsor on it!

    I see we have changed to a black kit with yellow accents, rather than the other way round.

    Does it go well with Red shorts and socks?

    Immediately made me think of the 1993-95 Blaupunkt kit (which I have no love for).

    This has far too much black on it. I’ve suspected for a while now that Pozzo/Duxbury don’t like the yellow and want to cover it as much as possible.

    I wondered why they didn’t launch the home kit the same night as the Q&A with Gino, to deflect the negativity


    ……now I see why

    Don't mind it, but not enough yellow.

    Has Ben Foster been made head of design at Kelme?

    Not enough red, too much black and the pattern is awful.

    Oh!

    I sat next to Emily aged 7 at Susheel and Mark's wedding yesterday.

    I think she had a hand in this.

    Horrible.

    I like it but as others have already mentioned, yellow should be the primary colour, way to much black.

    Been really impressed with Kelme and prefer the sponsor logo to Stake. The font and size of logo just made the shirts look rubbish.

    WillisWasTheWorst Its making less grammar mistake's thats important

    Obviously it’s an abomination and the big logo only makes things worse. I wonder if the back is yellow to accommodate the name and number? Such a shame that last year’s really good looking shirt was worn by a bunch of losers.

    The back is all yellow apart from the shoulder. I agree, last season’s shirt was much better.

    I wonder what colour the away kit will be? Hopefully yellow.

    I kinda like it (logo aside). But agree it should the black and yellow should be swapped round to make the yellow the dominant colour.

    A black shirt with a great big smear of yellow turd. Looks horrible.

    Don't mind it. A bit messy looking.

    A little bit too 'busy'.

    But there have been worse.

    I think it's pretty fun, although the large black blocks on the shoulders make it a bit unbalanced. Best part is not seeing Tom Ince gurning out from underneath it (yet). The club know how to lean into their tiny minor PR wins, choosing homegrown Andrews and the People's Captain Porteous to model it.

    Most of all we must salute Kelme for their full 4 years of zealous service to stamping out the red (shorts) threat.

    They're PROUD to release that ? That's akin to me being proud to release the contents of bowels first thing in the morning.

    First year of Kelme kit looked like a sodding cycling shirt, the positive being most of us didn't get to see it in the flesh, second year was hoops (FAR too much black), last year's was as it should be (& only one I've bought in recent years, & only then late on in season when price dropped to twenty-five quid), and now this monstrosity.

    Whoever designed that needs their gonads sticking in a blender. Bring back Umbro !
