👕 Chelsea Kits Thread


 Share

Recommended Posts

Forget it, there is no way Adidas would make a kit without 3 stripes, it just doesnt make any sense, thats why in the end of the promotional video what did we see? 3 stripes.

In fact I think they made that video because the kit needs a big promotional material to sell.

They did do a few with ajax (Then they started doing stripes)

The black and silver one reminds me very much of the Black away one we had in 08/09 new-chelsea-away-shirt.jpg Aka this one here, And i will say it's one of the nicest kits we pretty much ever had tbh, so i guess im okay with a one similar for next season, If i do get it I will stick to my thing of getting players who wouldn't have a name on the back on it usually, Might go with Azpilicueta Piazon or Betrand :D

Well since their deal with Liverpool ended we are now by some distance adidas' biggest contract in England so I guess they are more likely to push the boat out with us now.

When does our contract with adidas expire? Hopefully not soon, I much prefer them to Nike, and there is no way we're going back to Umbro as it's being phased out slowly and incorporated by Nike.

This is my fear. I mean it's a very unusual marketing campaign they've embarked on this time :-\

I think some people are expecting an awesome or exciting new kit because of the promotional material. But they are missing the fact that since they lost Liverpool to that weird american brand, Chelsea is the only brand they have in PL that sell million kits around the world.

The team is having an average season, and playing UCL next is far from being a done deal, the biggest stars are gone (Ballack, Didier, Shevchenko, all belong to the past), Lampard will leave in summer, Terry became a squad player and Torres is a huge flop, Mata might be one of the best players in the world, but he is not one of the most marketable athletes, and there is a long way until him, Oscar or Hazard start to sell shirts around the world.

And after the current kit, any kit in the world would be received with indifference.

so what your thinking here is that because we've had a mediocre season adidas have decided to withhold the best kits from us and instead give us a lower end quality, stoke esq kit and that is why they are not showing the kit? How spiteful they are ?!?

  1. It's horrible

It's clearly a mix between our 08/09 (yellow piping), 09/10 (straight shoulders and rounded collar) and 11/12 (two-tone blue) kits - if adidas are they devoid of ideas for kits that they have to revert to stealing from outdated ideas then we should sever all ties with them immediately.

Adidas have as good as confirmed that this isn't the kit.

It might look better on... But on the ground it just looks like someone has just gone crazy on last year's shirt. I am pretty sure that's not it... It also wouldn't fit into the "it's blue what else matters" slogan.

I'm expecting a very plain, blue shirt. Hopefully it looks good, because this kit has been great.
