I can't see the issue with the home shirt, looks ok for a blue and white shirt, the Keepers top is dead aweful - highlighter orange WTF? Its almost as bad as the away kit!!!

The home kit is pretty much unchanged apart from the collar isn't it?

The collar makes it look well poncy I reckon.
 
Then again, they are a West London club.
 
It's funny, adidas design rather good strips for Liverpool and have done so again with their new strip. Then their fluoro-fetish comes out for Chelsea.

maybe we should contact addidas to provide the uniforms for stewards at the games, put them in that goalie strip and you could spot them from space

It gets worst. There are matching shorts.
 
Think of Petr Cech in the changing rooms before playing Bolton.
 
The stick he must have been getting from his team mates...

Chelsea keeper Petr Cech is more than happy with his new orange kit for next season. "Studies say orange spreads the most in the split second when the striker focuses," he said. (Daily Mail)

If Chelsea stick with their highlighter yellow away strip and Peter has the orange, that would be horrid on gameday.

Wonder if Cech will be getting a new orange crash helmet to match his kit

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

I don't mind the collar, but the keeper's strip looks like a f$*king road worker's uniform.

Normal kit looks pretty good, keeper kit is embarrassing. Chelsea got some sort of weird obsession with fluro, perhaps taking the "lets all have a disco" chant a bit too seriously..

I like the return to the collar...but don't think the yellow trim fit in with a blue and white shirt.

If Petr likes it, and it works by putting off oncoming strikers in 1-on-1 situations, then I'm all for it...

Although it did take over my screen when they walked out at the Bridge vs Bolton last weekend....

I'll be buying one of the new home kit shirts.   As for the Petr's shirt it looks the same as my current keepers shirt so no complaints from me.

Is there anyone on this forum who is happy with his club's new kit?  The sad thing is, the more crap they turn out, the more they charge and yet the more people buy them.  Baffling.
 
Actually, I think the Phoenix home shirt is pretty average. Ooh, did I say that out loud?

Yeah, actually I am. LFC have gone the opposite way to Chelsea and got rid of the collar. This years shirt looks a lot better than last and I like our new Euro Away strip. Still not fussed by the grey strip tho'.

thankfully there not going with the bright yellow(dare i say almost green) strip from last season, the new away kit is black, and without a collar. i have to admit last years away kit was dreadfull, however the third kit i am told is going to be a normal yellow like the older chelsea away kits. i have to say i love the new home kit, the collar adds a touch of class, and takes me back to the days of old chelsea kits by umbro, however all in all adidas are doing well.......so far!
 
oh, and yes the keeper kit does look pretty odd, but if it helps cech distract the strikers then im all for it.

i like it, maybee a little biased on my part but i like the fact they have gone to a retro third kit, like chelseas old yellow away kits, and it wont look as bright as last years fluro designs.
