Worst kits Umbro have produced 10:11 - Jul 6 with 9811 viewslunatic1988

What’s everyone’s opinion?
After all the hype. Honestly think these are the worst kits Umbro have produced for Town

Home has a terrible shield around the badge

Away looks like a knock off Burnley

Dissapointed

The official explanation for both kits :

2024/25 Umbro Home Shirt: Always Proud

This shirt represents the pride both players and supporters feel for Ipswich Town Football Club. Players are proud to play for the Club and the badge, this is shown by bringing the badge out of the shirt and highlighting the crest with a shield surround. In line with the 100 year anniversary of Umbro, the shirt has a heritage feel with the original Umbro diamond utilising a red centre which balances nicely with the red surround of the Club crest. White pinstripes are incorporated into a home shirt for the first time in 10 years and fresh navy trim on the sleeves and v-neck gives the shirt a clean finished look.

2024/25 Umbro Away Shirt: Always Ipswich

This shirt represents pride in the Town, how the success of Ipswich Town Football Club impacts the whole of Ipswich. The town centre, bars, coffee shops and restaurants are full on a matchday with 30,000 supporters making their way to Portman Road. This is shown in the shirt by capturing Portman Road full of supporters waving flags, small portions of these flags have then been used to create a unique graphic that runs through the shirt. The use of a tonal gold crest, gold Umbro diamond and gold sponsor logo gives the shirt a smart proud finish. The navy trim used in the home shirts links both kits together and completes the look.

I'm okay with the shirt, in practice we all soon get used to them whether we like them or not. It is a bit safe and generic, but aren't they all nowadays. Not sure about the black horizontal striping on the bottom of the shorts, though. I don't see the point of it.

The home kit is a 100x better than last year’s lazy retro effort.

Every season the same thing. Until you see them played in games etc and they start to 'grow' on everyone there is always this reaction.

The away kit in my opinion is superb. Home kit initially my reaction was a bit safe but already growing on me as more of a clean and classy look. Away kit definitely the one the kids will be getting though!

Seen both the 81 and new kit side by side in Asda this morning. Did look very similar.

Do they test out designs on focus groups etc? I'm of an age and shape where I wouldn't buy one anyway but my 40 year ago self probably wouldn't have either. Not terrible but not a thing of joy.

Not keen on either and that Umbro badge on the home is an abomination.

First Umbro in League One promotion is still the best of the past few years.

I think the home one is an improvement on last year and can imagine it selling well. Personally I don't like the framed badge or the red on the umbro.

All away kits are going to be somewhat similar to another team. I like it. I'm glad they went for a new colour. I will buy this one for me, my son, and my wife if she wants one.

Neither beat the orange away kit for me. Probably my favourite ever Town top and even sweeter than it was a promotion season.

If the rumours of a pink third strip are true, I'm pretty much nailed on to get that one too. They'd have to do something like the collar or the framed badge for me to not get it.

This. I'm not a fan of the shield, but I could live with it.

To me the red on the Umbro just screams "we've designed a shirt that's too basic and we need to do something else". It makes an otherwise average shirt 10x worse.

The worst ever in my view is the sash kit, specifically e.on 06/07, which was also one of the few bought for me as a kid and so got a lot of use. Umbo's done a decent job overall for me, not a fan of the Adidas shoulder stripes, but this is my least favourite home shirt in a few years and I prefer last season's away (as much as I look better in maroon).

I really like them.

I haven’t bought a shirt for 30 years because Father Time has spoiled what Mother Nature gave me and pin stripes will only emphasize that. 😃

I’m more excited about being in the top division and what might happen next, shirts are neither here nor there for me.

Love the home shirt, the pin strip, the shield, all of it.
If i was 10 and not 65 I would wear it all the time.
As good as 22/23 - both better than anything for years.

Agreed. But just in the context of kits both companies have produced for the club recently, Umbro’s are a lot better.

Makes me sad that you don't think you can wear it because of your age. Life's short, have fun, embrace what you like.

I feel like i could - like on a 5 a side pitch - but I don’t do that anymore.
Maybe I should.
Life is indeed short.
