Adelaide United have had their away kit leaked from EA FC.

I believe early access for those who preordered the game starts today or tomorrow - so if anyone knows anyone with access to it, maybe see if they can screenshot the Nix's kits

In the past, teams have made agreements with EA not to include their newest kits if they haven't formally released them yet (the Nix have done this for the past few seasons). This just seems like complete negligence by Adelaide lol. Wouldn't hold my breath for a Nix reveal but would be a neat surprise, for sure
The leaked Adelaide kit looks almost identical to last season’s away kit anyway

Does anyone have any developments on this?

The kit on EAFC is the same as last year. Nix got their act together and aren't getting pipped by EA again

Unless it means we're keeping the same kits 🤣

Bring back Adidas

I'm in agreeance with this. While Paladin hasn't really done any wrong, there's something about seeing the Adidas logo on our kits that was beautiful. Made us feel like a bigger club of the league.

The materials were also better.

Meh, I get bored with always having 3 stripes everywhere. The actual kit design seems to be worked around that, whereas other manufacturers tend to be a bit more creative

Looks like grey pinstripes too. Can’t say I’m hugely excited by those stills 😬

Hmm pin stripes can look great if done well. I'm not gonna judge it yet. I just hope it won't be too plain

Do the nix usually releases their kits this close to the season? Kinda frustration when literally the rest of the league have their kits for the season revealed already

A lot of yellow. The last 5 years (thanks to Uffies superstitious side it seemed) we have reduced the amount of black in our home kit.

Sigh. If it's just pinstripes, and on the same V collar template, that's very boring.

Could have at least done a Dortmund and had the sleeves black with the pinstripes...

Decided to do a mock up of what it could be based on what we've seen in the teaser video:

Phoenix 24-25 pinstripes.jpg 6.82 MB


And a version without pinstripes just in case that's just part of the streaky effect on the video:
Phoenix 24-25 no pinstripes.jpg 6.85 MB


Plus the back for good measure:
Phoenix 24-25 back.jpg 6.82 MB

The Gazley on the right arm is just a guess based on the last few seasons

That looks great. Shame the Nix have pretty much revealed it all in that trailer. They're not good at kit releases

Love this. Think a lot of it comes down to the shade of yellow too. My concern is the nix one looks a bit pale? Certainly prefer this than the dortmund one put up further. That’s 🤮

Can't really blame the A-Leagues for leaking it - I mean it is media day after all where all the teams are posing in full kit for photographers. Nix should've really released the kit last week or this morning knowing today was media day

Whoever was in charge made a complete mess of this. First someone on here was able to pretty much piece the kit together from what we've seen in the trailer, then ALM posts it on media day. Amateur hour...

The artwork is slightly better than the real life version, so boring in person. Hell, @Half a Life's version is a much better version than that.

...When does our deal with Paladin run out? They've put a rugby collar on our football kit.

That's... remarkably uninspired.

The pinstripes looks bad in my opinion. They are barely visible which leads to a much to large block of yellow, is it meant to be reminiscent of the empty side of the stadium?

Personally won't be lining up to buy this, last seasons was much better. Can we have Adidas back?

I quite like it. Tidy without trying to do too much, though a little forgettable. The pinstripes could be bolder.

I agree, though ultimately I prefer the women’s kit. Excited to see what both sides’ away kits look like.

You lot had the nerve to rubbish our kit! Ours is way nicer than yours! 
Nice to see our slogan getting some recognition tho with a slight change. From ‘our city, our team, our island’, to ‘our city, our team, our people’. Good to know the pheasants like our stuff
