Phoenix kit - The Turquoise and Teal Thread

Home Kit - Decent

Away Kit - Fugly

Third Kit - Meh

So what shorts and socks go with this little beauty?

You don't need shorts on if you have a hoopy!

Balls out on 80 minutes?

I like how these are sublimated now. The thing I've always hated with screen printing is the inevitable cracking/fading. Wont happen anymore with these shirts. Glad the big Nova block on the back is gone too

really looking forward to seeing what I look like in a hoopy

Rotund?

I've been wearing the hoops for 39 years. The blue and white ones of QPR. This 3rd kit top is a must have for me. Wife is looking pretty pissed at me but....

My Wife is actually pleased that it's a different one that I like. And I quote "You don't need another yellow striped one"

Little does she know.

She is crazy

?

Horizontal stripes... they are renowned for amplifying one's curves... vertical stripes are 'slimming', horizontal ones, not so much. Apparently.

Will be testing Sunday - Blimp on Duty

So get one two sizes to big so it looks baggy and not stretched

Reiralution YF T shirt at work today under the new hoopy, season 2013/14 season members' scarf and a WPFC beanie. Build up week. #COYN #FIREUP

I didn't realise it until today but the hoopy is wobbly.

Wobbly?

Yep.

The hoops are wobbly (not straight) - they are wavey edged... they go up and down.

Up and down... like a stripey?... a stroopey?

No see here.

Brewers Hoop?

Thats bloody poor form blaming the hoops for being wobbly.

Got mine today. Love it to bits. Such a sexy kit.

sponsor is on backwards, Adidas logo is backwards, A League and Phoenix badges are on the wrong sides.

You got ripped off mate.

Glad we didn't get another glimpse of those white jeans again

That hoopy is designed to strike fear into the hearts of all opposing Australian sides who face it.

Note the undulating grey waves,reminicent of the ice-flecked, southerly-churned harbour approach, where striped sky and sea are merged in one menacing blanket of grey as they swoop and dip on approach into Wellington Airport. Brrrrrrr!!!

"We got the wind the rain and the hoopy! Wellington is Wonderful!

Guessing the Auckland game against CCM? They tend to have similar home & away kits.

CCM oldco or CCM newco?

Does anyone know what colour printing they will be using on the hoopy? Looking to get a name printed on the back.

If you go to Ryos.co.nz, you can see the colour options when you order one. You don't have to actually order one and go through with the order, but you can do a dummy order to see the list of colours.

They are:

Black, Forrest, Gold, Maroon, Navy, Red, Royal, White

I am not sure what "Forrest: or "Royal" are but suspect they are a green and mid range blue respectively. I am sure if you ask the helpful staff at Ryos they could tell you though.

Theyre not the official letters/numbers though are they? Ive seen a few people around with generic printed Nix tops and they look horrid

You can either get generic font letters/numbers or official A League font ones.

I believe the shirts are printed somewhere in Petone. I could be wrong. They do the printing for the plaers shirts so I imagine they must have got a supply of white lettering for the 3rd kit. Before, they have only ever needed black lettering for both the home and away shirts.

I'm fairly that the official lettering only comes in black with white outline or white with white outline. Never seen the others colours mentioned on an A-League kit.

Wouldn't white with a white outline be, well, white?

Or do you mean white with a black outline?

The other ones aren't official A-League writing (I believe they are what is used on Rugby shirts)

I have gone and asked for the Black with white outline on my 3rd top, so will get to see what it looks like soon.

Seen the Melbourne City one with blue lettering.

I stand corrected.

What colour are the shorts and socks?

Jets have gold lettering
