Get some nutrition tips from Hard News and I guarantee that shirt will look full

Maybe with our previous strip, but stripes don't really need anything else to add interest.

Strip launch coming soon according to 'in the nix' newletter. At a special members only session at the new store.

Godamn, just release it publicly already (like pretty much every other club did a few weeks ago)

Unless they are waiting to get a sponsor first before releasing it publicly, that is.

Don't suppose anyone has the information as to when this unveiling is? The link in the newsletter, which I assume is supposed to link to details, links only to the Wellington Beds site

I hope it is a striped shirt. this is just as if more exciting than transfer speculation, speculation on the new kit

Went for a wander past the new shop - no sign of life - can't see the new kit launch being for a few weeks yet.

Remember the A-League shirts follow similar patterns - So we will have Black with yellow trim.

They do not follow a template this time around Blew.

Those kits are really reall poor
 
Torne, all football strips follow a template, aside from the biggest clubs who might get their own design.  I think what you mean is that each club won't follow exactly the same template

agreed  -those kits are dull. Makes me hate GCU even more
 
that team kit photo special on the beach reminds me of the Wharfies end of season trip to surfers.

I'm not disappointed though, a poxy strip for a poxy club. They deserve it.

Does anyone know if we are going to have the new strip by the time the Melbourne game in Queenstown is on?

Strip release is in July, so very unlikely.

Adelaide's. Home kit is pretty similar to last years. The away looks pretty good - like the black though imo too much red on the shoulders. Reebok kits are ridiculously plain looking.  (even if they have a sponsor)

That looks alright. Nothing wrong with classical, plain design.

Black or white on the shoulders of the home kit perhaps? Needs something through the middle, and I really don't like the new Reebok logo. Oska2009-06-19 22:59:22

Well, 'plain' isn't a problem, but 'cheap' is.

+1, none of the strips barring perhaps Melbs and CCM have any class.

brisbane isn't too bad a representation in my opinion. esp because of the colours they have to work with
