I think they'll go with the Fenerbahce template. It's been two years without a stripey

An Adidas kit based off of a Puma kit? You sure? I'd love it if true, it's gorgeous.

Oops..forgot it was Puma. The allegedly referred to unofficial Toon Away strip, it's been 'leaked' on some club communication but not confirmed as the official 17/18 away strip yet

Confirmed as third shirt but spoilt by the sponsorship

Pity its the wrong brand but something like this would be cool, could easily make it look like flames for a Phoenix reference

Huawei logo isn't quite as, umm, obtrusive on that one either.

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

That's coz they only paid half. Home Depot logo looks awful.

Agreed, it kills what would be a pretty good kit for me...

Just a question, guys.

So I have a 16/17 home kit, and it has traditional stitching around the logo, which is fine. I got it from the Phoenix Shop.

However, I just found this on eBay, the 16/17 away kit has this logo application.

So, what application do the players have on their kits? If it's the one below, I will be slightly annoyed as I try aiming for replicas similar to player issued kits.

EDIT: Also, is anyone else's printed logos blurry? Mine are..

I know this has been discussed here many times previously, but are we finally ready to have hoops instead of strips for a few seasons? Mix it up a little?

I don't mind a hoop, to be honest. (Belgian club Lierse)

I like a hoop but our colours are black and yellow stripes.  Not hoops.

Why do our colours need to be in stripes? Im persoanlly a fan of the stripes and understands that it derives from the crest but its not uncommon for clubs to mix it up every once in a while. ie, Bayern, Dortmund, Celtic.

I blame our terrible football on the lack of proper stripes. Bring Back Stripey OG.

Two away kits. The first one basically takes inspiration off the 13/14 third kit

Like the top one, take out the white on the sides and go full yellow might make it stand out a bit more.

I'm seriously hoping it is just the kits changing.. The logo can last for an extra 2 years. And it gives the design crew time to fix up the new design as it's not up to scratch just yet.

New logo is briliiant, genuinely might buy a kit this year because of it

I'm with you on this as long as the new kit is a big improvement on the last one - I couldn't ever bring myself to buy that kit and I've been waiting in hope that the next one is a lot better. On this topic - the fact the stripes are no longer part of the logo could mean they can go away from that this time, which I wouldn't be a fan of tbh.

Moved to appropriate topic.

Any sign of the new kit at the breakfast this morning?

Nothing shown about new kit but new logo does look good on the Nix car and the players suits. Can’t wait to see what shirt we go with, know I’m chucking money at them for one. 

I'm an optimistic pessimist. 
I'm positive things will go wrong.

He means that on the Phoenix facebook/twitter they responded to a message and said that they would be unveiled in around 2 weeks.
