2016/17 Kit
- Thread starter aliyid
- Start date
Lots of kit manufacturers use old templates for their lesser teams; it's good to see Under Armour continuing in this tradition
They also unveiled 3 new St Pauli kits this week - one with the same template as our new third kit (albeit with a different pattern on the front), and the other 2 using the template as our 2013/14 home kit, which is some serious recycling!
Yep, you're right! Exact same shirt.....except for Saints having a vastly different shirt!Wow that's so very lazy from Under Armour. That's Spurs 15/16 away kit! The sleeves, collar and chest is all Spurs.

I know the full quote and it looks pretty. But echo of glory makes us sound like we failed. We didn't get glory just the echo.

Can someone advise me how do they compare in terms of fitting compared to last season's? They look a bit tight. Should i get 1 size bigger than last season's? Are all 3 kits similarly sized and fitted?

More suited to modern day Spurs, don't you think?

It's called a template.

All the UA stuff I buy (not kits) tends to come half a size too big in my experience.
Bless those fat Americans.
Well done.
But that's not really the point I'm making. Every year a new set of templates are usually made for each kit supplier. Be it Nike, Adidas etc. The fact that Southampton have got the 16/17 training wear and GK kits "template" the same as Tottenham is completely correct because that's the new ideas they've come up with for 16/17. My lazy reference to UA is for the brand new kits which surely are most important thing from their range, but they've used the "template" from 15/16 to produce the 16/17 kits.

Also for those asking, the adult shirts come up with exact same as last season. The youth sizes are definitely different, i.e the 5/6 is closer for the toddler 4yr old because the jump between the two was a bit more drastic in previous seasons. The 5/6 is smaller this season and 13/14 is much closer to Small mans size. So anyone with children, it's probably best to go into a store if you're unsure and try one on them if possible. As for training t-shirts, I think they come up a little more fitted and especially the polo's. They're not quite a long in length and tighter around the waist.

But what's the problem with that? I'd prefer them to have a year or even more years in between, compare to what Nike does with its template - which is the same across the broad but just different colors, at the same time. i.e. Look at Nike teams in The Euro, what a joke. Now that's lazy and I will be royally pissed off if I'm one of their customers.
At least it took me a 2nd time to find out it's the same shirt from UA.
