Maybe I'm getting old, but I find the hype and fanfare for a 3rd kit a tad embarrassing. Also, it's a nice top, but £50 odd for a kit that the players will wear thrice? And after this season wearing it is not going to obviously identify you as Charlton is it. Like a Wolves top with a Charlton sword. Still, I guess it's not really aimed at the likes of me.
Surely people buy a shirt based on whether they like it, not how many times the team will wear it?
Yeh, that's a fair point mate. But for me on the, admittedly rare, occasions I wear a replica shirt I do it to identify myself with my team - so I am going to be mainly wearing the red at home games and whatever colour is our designated away shirt at the away games. Otherwise, with the black/gold from a distance it would be like, who the feck does he support. But I get that it's probably just me and that people less fogey will wear them whenever it takes their fancy. I still think it's all hideously overpriced and overhyped though
Not a fan really. Don't like the neck at all. Other than that it's alright, the picture of Sophie Quirk wearing it looks a lot better because she's covering up the weird two colour/two level neck bit. It's red though, the shorts are white and the socks are red. Whatevs.
I like it, don’t love it. It’s good, not great, but I personally think the collar / shorts trim being all in white would’ve lifted it a bit more. At the end of the day, if they perform well in it and we end up promoted I’m not massively fussed either way!
I don't really know what people expect, its very hard to come up with a groundbreaking design when you have the Colour / Badge / Sponsor set in stone, all you can really vary is the collar and what if any pattern you bung on it.
The sponsor should have made it all in white rather than the splash of blue again, a true supporter of our club would care more about the fashion of it😜

Probably should have released it before the black shirt mind as that’s much nicer.
But still better than the Cabrini abomination.
