23/24 Strips

[Panda]

Wee tease ahead of the home strip reveal tomorrow.

The position of the badge within its white border is giving me forest whitaker eye

Nice top but we play in red and white…..

[scotfree]

I love that top.

Kind of goes into the colour change for this year.

Did my link not work? Posted direct from the phone. I like the story behind it, good concept. awesome couple of strips again this season.

I think the club have done a decent job of the new kits this year. 

[scotfree]

That's me pre-ordered the top. Early anniversary present from the wife. Not told her yet that all she's getting is a can of Coke and a packet of crisps...

Will we have a 3rd shirt this year with being in Europe?

Hope you're not being overly tight mate and that it is a family bag of crisps she's getting

[Panda]

Can I be the nominated miserable Aberdonian this year? I don't like either strip. The home or away. 

I also think Adidas are massively overrated and they've made a total arse of a few strips this year, namely Celtic's home one and the abomination of Juventus' home strip.

 

For context, Juventus' home top.

I mean, fuck Juventus for getting themselves kicked out of the Conference League and potentially denying us a belter of an away trip, but that strip wouldn't be welcome at Pittodrie anyway.

We'll probably just use last season's away. We'll probably need to wear that anyway when we play Hearts at Tynecastle.

I'm no made of money. She's lucky to be getting a packet of crisps at all.

Is the correct response

These women don't know how lucky they are

That's absolutely fucking horrific

PSV are with Puma. Send these Adidas strips back, put a Dons badge on all three of these, and we're ready for 2023-24.

 

 

Rudi > Adi. 

[scotfree]

I've always found Puma tops to have a cheap feel to them. The Nike shirts that we had before going back to Adidas were rather meh.

[tlg1903]

My first thought on pics of the new home top is the gold bits look a bit like they were white but are now urine stained. I need to see it in the flesh to fully judge it but not overly impressed at the moment.

C'mon TLG, you're trying to take the piss

The Puma home & away tops we had in 97-98 were among my favourite strips. Just a shame they evoke memories of Roy Aitken and Alex Miller and us being gash (except Eoin Jess of course).

This new home strip looks a lot like the Nike strip of 2010/11.

[Elgindon]

That urine stain comments kinda quashed my initial enthusiasm now it's mentioned.

Love the design though...also like the Eindhoven effort

All this thread has confirmed is that Panda has poor taste in fitba kits.

Thirded. Both strips look fantastic IMHO. Already got the away one but that will have to do - expensive business for the fans with the club releasing two strips every season!

 

Surely if we’re ever to ditch Adidas, it would be for Castore hopefully.
