I like it when I see the full thing, in more natural light.

The gold trim is nice… for a change. 
 

I think it looks much better on the players in the promo pics - these are the wrong size for the mannequins and isn't flattering!

The opening 'blurb' on the club website says "As we celebrate 120 years of AFC, the new kit features a gold trim, as a nod to the black & gold jerseys which were worn during the club’s early years".

So where's the black? If the stripes on the sleeves, shorts or socks, or the panels on the sides had a bit of black included, I think it could have worked.

It's just not doing it for me I'm afraid, but if we're inspired to play like the Spanish national side of 2010, then that's another matter.

Don't mind it at all. Not as good as last season's and as others have said it looks more like a Spain or Bayern top but it's a big improvement on the away top which looks worse every time I see it.

I think it's alright, but anything was likely to be a downgrade from last season's effort. 

I don't see much wrong with it, but I won't be looking at it every week.

Boskalis> Texo

A decent pic of a real person wearing one that fits make a difference tbf.

That being said as unoffensive as I find it I'm with @tarapoa on this.

Looks much better with the smaller letters of the Boskalis logo. 

Half decent strip but would have been happier if they announced it was for two years - like some other clubs have done this year.

Dons home tops have been pretty boring for a while now. I was talking to a mate there about your 1995 Northsound effort which is your best strip of the last 20 years. I'd love it if there were risks taken (as with your away top) but you're never going to get that with Adidas. It's the same safe dull top each time.

This seasons home and Away. I honestly think they are both really neat looking. I'd argue last seasons home top was the best we've had in many many years. The blue away top under Glass was also smart. With us being in Europe will we see a third top?

In the last four years we’ve had huge white collar/sleeves, blue round the neck, pinstripes and now gold trim, all pretty varied imo. The later McInnes year kits were quite similar though.

I’d rather have a fairly safe home kit and wacky away kit personally.

Third top is last seasons away. That's why they are always alternating colours each year.

Surely you’re not including last seasons home top? Was a beauty

It's a no from me, can only hope we're playing a team in red in the Europa League final so it's the away strip that will go down in history. 

 

Would be more than happy with something resembling this sexy number every year, personally. A thing of beauty! (The strip isn't bad either)
