Went into Football Central to buy my kid's football gear for the upcoming uniform today and saw the new AWs uniforms. They're not as bad as they look in a photo, but they're still not that great tbh
Ok so I found this thread randomly while searching for AW gear on Google...
I've just realised I've had the same AW shirt for almost 18 years and it's probably time to upgrade. Trouble is, I can't find a shirt anywhere. Football Central and Rebel Sport seem to be out of stock. Any other ideas where I could get one in time for the Aus game?

You will be completely out of luck, no where is selling them. I was looking earlier this year for one for my nephew in the States, and it appears NZ Football don't care to produce them at the moment.

That's shocking when you realise that the San Marino FA put more effort into producing a kit than NZF.
Chances of a limited series coming out in a hurry if we quality for the WC??

International shirts are typically on a two year rotation, regardless how infrequently we play (because it’s a Nike thing). With this being a World Cup, it’s one of the rotation years, so I’d imagine a new kit will come out this year, whether we go to Qatar or not. For example, the current kits were released October 2020 (Covid delays a factor), previous were May 2018, August 2016 etc. Good chance we’ll have new ones by the Australian games. I suppose it’s a case of get in while you can, because NZ shirts probably don’t have much demand, so supply is limited compared to your bigger teams.
Just saw this thread then checked my emails...

The Soccer Shop in Hamilton used to stock NZF gear before they closed down last year

I can't believe it. I got out of a 2 hour training session and saw the email... How funny!
Sorry NZF, I was too harsh before! Great work.

Should I go white or black? I don't love the black but all white is fairly boring and prone to getting stained.....

Footy Headlines is reporting that they have been leaked the new All Whites’ kits for the coming two seasons. They are generally fairly ahead of the game, at least for the big countries in terms of kit leaking, but NZ might be a bit less certain. They’ve reported that Nike are going to drop all their new national team kits on the 16th of September or so, so if accurate then could be what the Australia games are played in. Australia have also had their new kit leaked.
If true then these are pretty disappointing, but their bland simplicity of design compared to the previous two, especially in the black kit, is what makes me sceptical as to their validity.
New pictures on footy headlines with actual people wearing the shirt, so looking pretty true: https://www.footyheadlines.com/2022/09/blog-post_12.html
that old school retro emblem is interesting, wonder what prompted that change? very 82-esque :)
Given they are basically stock Nike shirts we'd be better off just buying the fern and ironing it on (that's what most Iranians had to do with their Adidas WC shirts in 2018 as their were non available at the WC).
Anyway those shirts are so poor, I really can't see them selling out anytime soon, even in the small quantities made for NZ.

Looks like a tight kit, which raises my rating a fair bit. Originally I'd have given it a 3/10 - bargain bin from Kmart-type stuff. Now it's a decent 5.
Wish we could have continued incorporating Māori imagery; pretty shocking that this doesn't seem to. Don't feel comfortable having something that represents us on a national stage without it

totally agree with the low ratings of this "new" kit, feels like Nike have really not put any effort into it at all. "oh look NZ wear white/black - that's simply" As previous shirts have shown there is a way to make add something to a single coloured shirt - some kind of motif in silver or white on the black shirt would be great and the opposite on the white.

When you look at some of the trash Nike has put out for other teams I reckon we've done ok.
What benefit is there for NZF being with Nike?
I would expect NZF doesnt get anything from them, instead we are probably lucky to get anyone willing to make the shrits for such a small market.

You think we could go closer to home and get some like Paladin to make the kits.
Bit gutted I rushed to buy what I thought was the new kit a couple of months ago when the Socceroos sales was announced. I went for the white shirt as I didn't like the zig zag lines in the away kit but now I wish I'd known more shirts were coming out as I probably would have bought something different

honestly the black one looks like an old AB's shirt.
You're not wrong! I wonder what it would have looked like with a white collar and cuffs? Therefore being the complete opposite of the home shirt.
The one they wore at the '82 WC doesn't have the pin stripes.
This shirt is either before or after the '82 WC, interesting I cant find any images of games with the pinstripe, can anyone enlighten me?
I have a replica that I got (last year from here, https://www.u8retro.com/)

The other option is get some made yourself, Sitter \ Grant Stantiall did a set of 82 replica shirts for the 2003 Confeds Cup, he only did 22. I had #18 (Peter Simonseon) but no idea what happened to it

The 82 side actually wore 2 different strips in Spain - plain against Scotland and Brazil, and a pin striped one against USSR...
I'd like to see a white shirt with black collar and cuffs but also with a black diagonal sash like Peru's red one.
