150th Anniversary kit/celebrations

[Hasta]

Home kit - Ok 7/10

Away kit - too contrasting with baby poo colours and odd images 3/10

Third Kit - OK.  Not sure about the way the colours blend up close. Probably looks good at a distance. 6/10

I'm interested to know when and where we will need to wear the green third kit given the colours of our home and second strips. 

Who will decide? 

Hull away

Norwich away

Oxford away

Watford away 

 

[Ferrit]

That 3rd strip is absolutely rancid.

Have we not worn blue and white at all of those previously?

We wear the Pink 3rd kit at Norwich away last season

Here's Yuki nodding in a late equaliser at Carrow Road last season in that iconic pink kit.

I stand corrected

[RevidgeBlue]

How many times did we wear the pink kit last season?

I can only specifically remember Stockport in the League Cup.

[Lancaster Rover]

I’ve just shown my lad (10) the kit and he said it’s the best Rovers kit he’s seen, opinions eh

[StHelensRover]

 I'm underwhelmed by the home kit, partly because they didn't put much thought into it being an anniversary top, but mainly coz it's not proper blue and white halves or 'quarters', I don't know why they suddenly reverted to that and why the club ok'd it (I do know why, no one at the club gives a toss). 

I like the green kit a lot, I bought it. I like the colours, design, collar, everything really.

I'm not sure about the yellow kit. I think from a distance it might just look like it's got dirt and sweat on it, as others have pointed out. It's not an aberration, it's just nothing too special.

I'm surprised how divided we are as a fan base on the shirts, but it's not the end of the world. At least shirt chat is a welcome distraction from everything else going on.

At this point, I would take our away kit being claret and blue with a big 💩 emoji on the front for the season if it magically rid us of these owners.

Green ? Prefer it over the away tbf but still not keen

No, I think it was 96/97 away shirt where we narrowly avoided relegation. Had a panel down one side that had Rovers crest replicated in different sizes then repeated on one of the arms, both home and away had 'grandad collars', sponsored by CIS

 

That's one of the best away shirts ever made. 

This new one is dog shit just like the two others.

When we play Shrewsbury in a cup?

[Forever Blue]

These shirts are designed to sell. That’s what Macron want, that’s what Rovers want. They are designed to be marketable.
 

The green shirt might get trotted out a couple of times in matches, like the pink one last season. This is probably contractual. 
 

It has very little to do with colour clashes with opposition teams! 

[Mattyblue]

Exactly, Plymouth had not one, but two ‘away’ kits last season, why? Because it certainly wasn’t for colour clashes…

Exactly. And to be marketable they invariably have to be different which ours certainly are.

Jeez the gold kit is horrendous. 

[JHRover]

Just need to make sure we've enough stock then and we aren't turning people away including those with infants looking to buy the away/third strip....

[Tom]

I was talking to someone this morning who wanted to buy a third kit for their youngest but were shocked they didn’t do infant sizes

Seems an odd decision

I’m shocked too. It suits infant sizes, being the colour of vomit.

Think it's alright to be honest.

I still think every one of our kits should be quartered - but that's marketing and we simply don't do that at Ewood Park. 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Best Rovers away kit I've ever seen imo..

 

[Mattyblue]

Our USP is halved (quartered before I’m shot! 😅) shirts, so why not hone in on that for away kits, that classic from nearly 20 years ago aside we just haven’t done it, which I find odd.

Never gets old either. Red and black, green and gold, pink and black etc etc.
