Nah, don't like it. Wouldn't complain having that as a 3rd kit but the black one should be our away shirt not this one.

Its not too bad but they always grow on me (if it really is our new kit that is)! Real shame the black one is just for this season as its a well nice strip!

looks very late 80's early 90's. Don't know why, it reminds me of the 1990-92 away shirt. I like it, but not a patch on the black one.

Yep, I agree, the black one is just pure class.

This probably seems like cheap imitation , This is ugly :-X I'd hate it if it turns out to be our away kit.

Looks alright. Obviously, not a shade on the black strip.

Hey, I preferred last season's home kit to the one we have now, but it grew on me and i think that even though i prefer the black one now, i'll get used to liking this one..

If it's even a genuine!!!!

Post by missunited on Apr 13, 2008, 11:33pm

It's a picture that one person's been emailing to several websites... It may be real, the claim is that Nike leaked it purposefully, doesn't mean it's the final design or even remotely close to it.

I don't think whatever they do, next years away kit will be as nice as this years, liked the one from the year before too.

LOL at RnH.

He's right, the black should be kept.

I bought the black once and I have to argue with my wife. But, I love it and my wife like it.

You can't argue with the black ones!

Post by sourceentermind on Apr 16, 2008, 4:59pm

can't really tell with these "leaks" - it's possibly a method of NIKE's "focus group" - ie. gauge the reactions and make the adjustments to the final "product".

i sure hope it won't be using that dark blue trim - or is that just the photo, it has to be BLACK dammit !

it reminds me of the 2002(?) white kit with that red triangle, don't really like that - the shape of the collar is nice tho.

If Nike snoops are on here to get feedback regarding this supposedly leaked design here's my comment:

For the love of god, please stop the madness of releasing new kits every year. Two years is a good amount of time as it gives the shirt a decent run and allows for people who can't afford to buy new shirts often a bit of time to enjoy wearing them and still feel relevant. I don't mind commercialism per se but when it's just companies looking to suck the last bit of loose change in someone's pocket then I do take exception. You know what, I don't care how nice the new shirt will be I'm not going to buy it because I'm not going to let you and your focus groups swindle me.

Post by moxdevil on Apr 20, 2008, 12:23pm

Rather they just re-designed the black one, i.e. got rid of the nasty looking stripe on the back and left everything else as it is.
Re: United away kit 2008/2009 ..
Post by stretfordendling on Apr 23, 2008, 9:25pm

Agree with Moxdevil. Get rid of the stripe then job done.

Post by mysteriousjeff on May 8, 2008, 10:53pm

I think the white one has a shout at being genuine. If you notice the embroidery around the club crest, it's exactly the same as it is on this season's shirts, and that kind of effect would be hard to get in a program like Photoshop.

And the "blue" colour will be black, don't worry: it's a picture taken on a crappy mobile phone, I've seen that kind of thing many times.

On that blue strip somebody posted... God, I hope not. I don't like United's blue kits with the exception of the '68 final one. We play in red, white and black, damn it. There shouldn't be blue anywhere.
Re: United away kit 2008/2009 ..
Post by keano16 on May 8, 2008, 11:11pm

Please leave the grey kit well alone. If Bristol City come up and we have to go to their place....Please. It can be any colour in the world, just don't make it grey. Thankyou. :)

Personally my favorite recent away kit is last years white and black, loved that one. Prefer this years to the one Scott posted though.

Nope, I'm not going to buy a new shirt until 2-3 years from now and that's IF it's really really nice.

Quite like the white kit... unsure on the blue but it would grow on me.

Do we need an away kit - I mean, I bought the black away kit for this season and how many times did we wear it? We wore the old white one more times, surely - Roma, Barca, errr help me out here?

Used the USA kit as template and made it black. It looks so much better black.
