Thing of beauty. Stunning colour.
Horizontal stripes make me look fat.

By which, I mean more noticeably fat.

To paraphrase:

“No the stripes don’t make you look fat….that's your poor diet and lack of exercise.”

Horizontal stripes actually make most people look thinner.

Is that right? I thought it was the other way round as well, I can’t look much fatter ffs.

Yeah - was told years ago that horizontal stripes make most people look thinner. And then Stephen Fry said the same on QI…so it must be right.

I think the away shirt whilst very nice is not going to do much for the average Tiwnfan in the looks department. Horizontal stripes barely do stick insects any favours, let alone Mr / Mrs Average with his or her BMI of around 30. Horizontal stripes will always make you look " fat"....

The photos of O’Shea and Kipre in the away shirt suggest otherwise.

Horizontal stripes, or hoops, make you look bigger, hence why rugby teams tend to favour them.

Why has age got to do with wearing a football shirt? Surely it's about feeling comfortable within yourself, I'm 67 and wear a town shirt virtually every day of the year and I couldn't give a monkeys uncle what other people think, I'm proud of supporting ITFC and will until the day I die. (I will be buried wearing a shirt as well)

Brilliant! Good for you and I agree.

I loved the away immediately but the home is so nice isn't it. I went down to look at it in the shop and the pattern is lovely.

Purple goalie great too!

But the big question is whether the white side stripe adds or detracts. I’m not convinced it’s wholly necessary, but haven’t seen one in the wild yet.

I think it looks good. It's not too much. The blue pattern is very nice.
