dezz Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Not a fan of the away top at all.I generally don’t like us in black away kits - the Skippy Sunday top gets a pass because of the claret sash - but I always feel black away tops just aren’t very ‘Motherwell-y’. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Craig Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 So instead of Pals of Declan signing for us, they're designing our kit now? That said, I like the details on the inside collar. Also, the black and amber well badge looks very modern. But aye, heavy Livingston vibes from it. I like it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapowzer Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 That's three kits in a row that have had sweet FA to do with the club as far as I'm concerned This homage to Livi The turquoise training kits I'd expect to see at Easter Road The blue one for the women's team (for charity) The club colours are Claret and Amber, additionally White (and recently blue semi-acceptable) By all means play about with these, alter the shades, introduce grey's or silvers as neutral colours etc. I hope Provan or the club notice this, stop trying to be too cute. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsome John Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I guess that it’s cheaper to change the badge to a one colour design but it’s being done too much recently to blend in with the main colour of a shirt. What’s wrong with using our proper badge? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I actually quite like it. I'm sound with the home kit being traditional with the design/colours/badges but go nuts on the away one imo. Still holding out for the Dortmund-esque hi-viz. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This… I have plenty of Claret and Amber tops including the odd home top. But I have probably bought 4 away kits to every home top. I liked the Petrol blue top from last season. The non sponsor (Paddy Power) white top from two seasons ago. I like this top and think it looks smart. A lot better than skippy Sunday sash effort and the Edinburgh rugby macron from a few seasons back. I will be buying it now I can see it is Amber and not yellow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I wondered about alternate claret and Amber stripes but maybe you wouldn't see the claret against the black. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a great fan of this strip either. It's inoffensive, but It looks like a 'template' job rather than something carefully crafted to inspire us / empty our wallets. Looking at the 'strips' thread it seems other teams' fans are more enamoured with it than most of us are - probably because so many of theirs are so horrible My cupboards and drawers are overflowing with footy kit (some of it looking rather stretched these days, but I can't quite bring myself to chuck any of them away) so I'm quite pleased to give this years stuff a miss, but I guess it'll be a big hit to the club finances if everyone else feels a bit 'meh' about the offerings. How much income do the strips (or the club shop) generate? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I think it is a really smart strip but doubt it’s Motherwell credentials. It is ideal for me for the fives. The aim of a second strip is to be different from the first so mission accomplished and if people aren’t keen it is probably for one season only then ‘we go again’. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The claret worked really well with the 2017/18 away top (aka the Kipre top) although the stripes were broader, and set against grey as well as black. Oh, and horizontal. I loved that top, and ended up buying two of them after the first met with an unfortunate tumble dryer related incident, but there was much grumbling at the time because it had no amber in it.

Ron Aldo Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I'm not completely sold on the new away kit and would probably need to see it first hand. I mean, it's a nice kit but from the pictures it's not necessarily a nice Motherwell kit (if that makes sense).I've bought the last couple of away tops as they were a bit different but you could tell they were a Motherwell top. Not so sure I'll be buying this years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Seeing as this thread can manifest things such as transfers, how about we start trying to manifest a luminous yellow away top for next season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
