    The proper badge and layout  really would have made it better. That red accent would have popped

    Nice kit... rsk looks a bit big again though, looks a bit high up too

    My first thought was ‘Gillingham shirt’

    Well the shorts and socks look nice.

    I love my Woolwich blue shirt and having it alongside this new shirt in the marketing material is a big mistake. The 1992 shirt is a class act. Look at the way the maker's brand, the club badge and the logo are spaced properly on the older version. Our new shirt makers gave some junior graphic designer three minutes to throw everything on the front centred. It looks plain bad with the paired down club badge sandwiched and lost between oversized brand and sponsor logo. Also the dark blue sleeves gives the shirt a hint of Millwall.

    It's a shame because, together with the 1992 beauty, I have always liked other manufacturers' efforts for our blue away shirts.

    For me the sponsor dominates the shirt which takes away the focus of the badge

    Blue is OK.  Don't like the diagonal stripes and where is the proper badge...?  Bring on the training kit with proper badge and no sponsor name.  Must be an improvement.

    Yep, colour on the badge would balance it out even at the same scale

    Not a fan of everything being centred and i also think the sponsor logo is too big and too high up. 

    Logo lower, proper club badge and everything in the normal positions and it might have looked ok. The Woolwich shirt is miles better.

    Our badge is a classic and is a welcome contrast on whatever colour they decide to base a 2nd or 3rd kit.  The black and gold last year was warmly applauded but if it had also the traditional badge  ten times better imo. Why feck with perfection?

    Hell what do I know?  Haven't bought a Charlton kit to wear in 40 years.

    The bottom of the sword is in the middle of RSK, but the tip of the sword is not in the middle of Castore.

    Oh dear no! I prefer the original Admiral one. I like blue and wear that recent 'Ben Watson' one with pride when out running, if my other 'non Charlton' actual running shirts are in the wash.

    I don't like the text and badge design on this one. When I heard the 3rd kit was to be blue, I was hoping for better. Simply horrid! It's a no from me I'm afraid. Up the Reds!

    they've gone from the centre of the badge, in this case, the hand, however the actual full badge centralises the sword.

    Love that kit and like the sword only logo, but the positioning of that and the castore logo...WTF

    Didn't notice that before, that looks really strange!

    Looks more like a training top with the central badge.

    Another year without a purple, green & white re-make... I thought all these new kit suppliers wanted to be edgy and retro... it's on a plate for you!

    normally I like a central badge however it looks wrong on that top and needed the whole badge to be in the middle 

    with the badge and the logo on each side it would be the best kit of the 3

    I like it, would rather the badge wasn't in the middle but it's a minor gryp.

    I like it but not as much as the home and away shirts.

    Any chance of bringing back an actual retro line? Would understand if doing 91/92 is off the table this season but how about some of the 80s stuff as a start?

    I think charltons future blue kits should be more sky blue than millwall/gillinghamish/brum.
