If you like it fair enough fill your boots Maybe we should just go with white and navy for the hundredth time. Glad to see another yellow stripe. Loved my Kelly's one as the two strips that year were my first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex Machina Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I like it. And I can definitely see it doing well with younger fans which can only be a good thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I like the idea of using iconic styling or copying other teams for our change kit. This ones already been described as Dortmundesque. Puma also make Arsenals kit as well as Spurs,: Wolves, West Ham, Crystal Palace, Newcastle, Leicester, Inter Milan also: Uruguay, Italy, Cameroon, Swiss, Czech's I'd quite like to see the Inter Milan kit next or maybe the Arsenal kit for our away kit next year seeing as we have a connection. You can rule out Newcastle and their home kit though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 It would be interesting to hear which away strips of recent years have been the best and worst sellers. I’m assuming that green and black effort got a few sales. Even the washed out pink one possibly did okay given the background to it. I don’t hate the yellow one, but I’m not a fan either. If I’m buying a top I usually go for our away one. The last one I bought was the green and black one and I never wore it. As usual, we had sold out of Large early on so my choices were XL (Puma really think football fans are obese, it was like a tent) or M (skin tight). Went for M to accentuate my slight belly at the time. Never saw the light of day. I had the ‘red rovers’ away top and the white Puma one too, possibly the one from when we won the league? As for home tops, I would like to see a mid-80s pin stripe effort again. And in hindsight I should have bought the half and half strip as it was pretty smart. I must be a traditionalist at times as I would just have the away effort being a white top rather than a blue top. White with blue pinstripes would look good. Red, yellow or whatever is also fine with me though as long as the design is good. I just think the design of the current yellow top is playing it a bit safe. It’s confusing colours, with the yellow and black (why not yellow and blue?) but it’s not too offensive. Just doesn’t do it for me, which is no surprise as I am middle-aged man and have no business buying football tops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I always wonder why grown men get uppity about a football top. They are reserved strictly for kids and/or people who regularly play 5's/7's. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one of the middle aged offended last night but saw a picture on facebook of a young lad wearing it and it looks good on him, reflecting its probably good marketing as it will appeal to younger fans, yellow wall at the san starko? Thinking back I bought the barca style away top in 94 and it became a favourite of mine, something different and a talking point so well done to the club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Being honest, aside from the RemembeR strip a few years ago, our away strips have generally been a generic plain white or red kit. It's nice to see something a bit different. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a big no no if you're playing 5's or 7's, maybe even worse than grown men buying football tops but not as bad as the folk that wear football tops over a jumper or hoodie to a game on a Saturday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally speaking we've tended to have had kits almost identical to Dundee and Falkirk with Puma in terms of the design. This new kit is a bit different, and it's a bit of a change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 This'll be the first shirt I've bought since the RemembeR one. Think the last home kit I bought was the 10/11 one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperHans Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I heard they sold more shirts last night than they did at the previous shirt launch at Society. Having seen the rush to get one last night and then the rush to put it straight on shows how popular it's going to be. When you consider the disappointment from last season that was carried in from the previous one and has now been carried forward into this season, seeing Raith fans look happy and excited was a nice change. Maybe it's brightened us all up a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 If it's popular I hope everyone that wants one has gotten one because once we sell out that will be it, apart from a minimal re-stock for Christmas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
