Very little mention of the "new" kit.... 14:16 - Oct 26 with 4014 views | Bloots | ....on here today. I assume there was a bit of chat last night. What's the general consensus? I'm going for "dull, uninspiring, missed opportunity, nice badge though" All in all 3 very mediocre kits this season. | |

....to produce something a little more "off the wall", knowing it will get used rarely. Last year's was a good example. This one is just a half arsed copy/tribute to an old kit. Seems pointless to me and I suspect it will be our weakest seller to date. | |

It's a half arsed version of it too, needs the pin stripes on the arms for full effect. I wouldn't be averse to a take on the 84-6 kit, love that but seems its cursed with it being from a struggling period. | | | |

Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 14:30 - Oct 26 with 2963 views | LankHenners | Looks quite smart but don't really see the point of it, especially as orange is a pretty distinct enough colour to not clash with much if anything at all. As you say if you're going to do a third kit for the sake of it you might as well be a bit creative with it. I know the commercial side of things is important but in general I don't really like the blurring of the line between 'supporter' and 'customer' that we seem to have in football. | |

Although a modern take on 97-98 away kit would be quite interesting. | |

Yep, second that, not sure why people moan about 3rd kits either, don’t have to buy it, my kids love the kits, I’ve even got a few shirts, all good for the club too. | | | |

Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 14:54 - Oct 26 with 2784 views | Grandpa | Best thing about it is the badge Even if the club doesn't want to return to it, I like the current badge too, but would still prefer where it's red, to be yellow That would feel like Ipswich Town | | | |
Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 15:05 - Oct 26 with 2747 views | Kropotkin123 | The local team I play with required me to turn up in a white kit, and I kept showing up in the Orange one. So I will get this. But I understand your criticism below - more "off the wall" I still don't like the blue one. I love the orange one and think it is far from mediocre. | |

I'd have liked to see a purple and brown checked number. | |

…collar and cuffs, and a full zip. Basically a 1970s cardigan. | |

Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 15:42 - Oct 26 with 2608 views | _clive_baker_ | I like the design, it's clean and simple and pretty slick. The badge is nice, as are the pinstripes, and the black logo works well with the black & white. I won't be buying it as I try to avoid fast fashion, I don't need it, can't say I really want it, but I do like it. Stylistically I think it's nice. | | | |
Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 15:49 - Oct 26 with 2568 views | Parsley | I like it. Badge is cool, would have been a good away kit for next year. I'm a big fan of orange kits and have the new away one so won't be buying this one. Don't really see the need for a 3rd kit this season as the team will barely wear it so it doesn't really connect with me. 145th anniversary isn't really a selling point for me either. | | | |
Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 15:57 - Oct 26 with 2518 views | RonFearonsHair | It's an away kit rather than a third kit and makes me wonder if we will cycle back to red away next season. I agree with the point that third kits are an opportunity to do something a bit 'off the wall' and different rather than retro. It looks decent enough though and if it brings more money into the club then it's done its job. | | | |
Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 16:29 - Oct 26 with 2346 views | SamWhiteUK | I think it's pretty meh as well. If someone bought it for me for Xmas, I'd wear it, but I wouldn't spend my hard earned. The orange is the best kit we have this year. | | | |

Only a good look if the collar and cuffs match | |

Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 17:35 - Oct 26 with 2120 views | Nutkins_Return | The biggest problem here is it feels a bit late and it's not last years kit. Last years 3rd kit is probably the best football kit I've ever seen (and not just town). I honestly think they should have re-released last years black kit. It would sell in huge number again. I would buy another one. Could have done a small tweak on it or something. This 3rd kit is fine. But fine won't sell bucket loads. | | | |

Agree re just sticking to the black shirt. SHould have just kept the black one and made more of them. Maybe i'm slow when it came out, but I could never get one in the correct size. But its probably more revenue generated by the new shirt. I think its OK, but really I'd like to just get the proper retro one. | | | |
Very little mention of the "new" kit.... on 17:42 - Oct 26 with 2101 views | nodge_blue | I like it for what its worth. Im more of a fan of us in white away shirts than orange. I thought it might have been more ed sheeran inspired though. I almost expected an sheeran collaboration third shirt as a theme each year. | |
