Aaah Trev, thanks for educating me. Umbro 100% choose the design of the kit with no input from the club. None at all. Zilch.
The things you learn.

and why would Umbro do that to promote another firm who pays the club less in terms of sponsorship?

Given the away kit looks like a 3rd kit am assuming the official 3rd kit will be white or light blue
At least the black kit will be forgiving on some of the lumps who buy it. Others will look like a small mountain range though when in a group

No more than it does on previous kits.

Looks like a kit designed with the sole intention of making the sponsors logo stand out.

It's West Ham's version of the England 96 away kit. That was designed specifically to wear with jeans down the boozer apparently.

“It’s a really smart kit! I like the dark-coloured kits and you can wear this one with a pair of jeans as easily as when you are playing football with your mates"
explains it all.
i think its OK as a third, but no way should be the away.

Will sell stacks and stacks of these.
As ever, the child's version without sponsors is so much better.

Does it come with a handbag like the All Blacks kit?

Or you could just buy a pair of black shorts for half the price?

i don't like it. Still, at least we usually only wear our away kit when we have to rather than at every opportunity like some clubs.
Should have reintroduce the 90s 'Argentina' away kit now we've got both Zabaleta and Lanzini.

Looks ok. I'll wait and see what it looks like when they're actually wearing it on the pitch.
Only negative as someone else pointed out is the laziness of the kit manufacturers these days. 4-5 other clubs will have exactly the same template for their kits with a different colour. Can see why they do it- why employ 20 designers when you can employ 4- but it's such a shame. Takes a lot of character and individuality out of a lot. I thought the co-ordinates on last seasons kit were a nice unique touch. Turns out they were on all the Umbro kits. I think ours was the only one with the union flag instead of a solid block of colour on the sleeve trim though?

hollocks
every club does it, it's simple supply and demand these days mate, you wouldn't be able to get a decent kit deal without changing all shirts every year. I don't buy replica kits, if i did id probably disagree with the pricing, but then again if i thought they were too expensive i simply wouldn't buy them, a choice that everyone is free to make.

Ah, the idiotic "can't call it a rip off as they are not forcing you to buy it" argument.
No surprise to see rising star of the idiot ranks RM10 coming out with it first.
