Still no idea who decided the sponsor should be so high up on the shirt. It looks stupid.
I just looked at the latest kits from the 'big 6' and on all of their kits (Chelsea excluded as they don't have a sponsor), the sponsor logo is in line with the bottom of the sleeve.
I quite like it. And I like that we're continuing the thing of having different sponsors home & away. Not that there's anything wrong with our main sponsors, but they're one of the main competitors to my employers and I'd prefer to avoid any difficult conversations...

If you enter running events, you can pin your race number beneath it without obscuring the sponsor, but I doubt that's the reason 😉
I like it, not that I'll buy one for £55. It looks a bit naff in some of the pictures but the twitter (X) one above is better. Suspect it looks even better in the flesh.
Not sure why all the hate… I quite like it personally
I think it's fine. That's kind of my feeling about all of Castore's kits. They're fine, not fantastic, not awful.
I think my complains mirror others' which is that if you're going to do black, purple, and green there are so many more interesting ways to do it, and this just feels very...safe.
It's reasonable but pretty uninspiring. Indeed this year it's the main red shirt which I like best.
I'd prefer the 2nd kit to be braver, as the main red shirt needs to be fairly classic, and the 3rd kit (for a club like us) will be a generic catalogue style shirt.
This black kit is ok I suppose. Agree with comments that they could have gone further with the patterning than a Palace type sash. Having two versions of black shorts in one season is weird. The white kit is similar to last year's so I go with the red shirt being the best this year not least because they have done something different by adding black collar/cuffs.
smart enough shirt the UoG logo is much less successful than the RSK can't do anything about the long name but surely there was something a bit less bland that could have been done boring plain white wording across the chest ruins it as something you'd ever want to wear outside of an away match
Point of order: the Men's away kit (UoG sponsorship) comes in female sizing Will the Women's away kit (RSK sponsorship) be available in male sizing? a) equality and b) it looks tons better
Pretty sure these kits were sorted before the meeting castore held with the fans during last season which was to help choose the kit for the 24/25 season. So these kits had no real input other than from TS I suppose.
They're not terrible. But not great. The third is basic and boring, the away is OK and the home is the best of the 3. Actually prefer this year's home to last year's.
If we win the games, the kit will become nicer, just from your memories :-)
There’s an element of truth in that. The all grey woolwich will always be fondly remembered because of the 3-1 win away at West Ham. The all yellow woolwich the 2-2 draw at Highbury All blue adidas beating Leeds at St Andrews all white viglen the bowyer hat trick against Wimbledon in the league cup at Selhurst.

If it's anything like last season, the women's shirts being modelled on the website will never go on sale, they'll only be made in enough quantity to provide for the team. The shirts actually available for sale all have the men's sponsors on them (RSK home and third, Greenwich Uni away), including the ones in women's sizes.
The boy loves his kit, he was more worried the fella in the shop wouldn’t fit the name on the back but fair play to him, it took him a while to sort and Oli was most grateful
he’s not taken it off yet, reckon he’d sleep in it if he could. Mind you given the price, he might have to!!
Another gk kit has popped up online in 'acid lime'. Can't remember the last time we had some interesting looking keeper designs.
They’ll regularly put RSK on the front of that and use it for home keeper shirt. As said at the time of the black keeper, that’s hardly ever going to be used.

Yeah probably if no third comes out. Or might use last season's yellow? Doubt many would notice given how bland they are.

“We’re a bit tight on money this year, Would you like ‘May’ on the back of your shirt son? Maybe one of the new signings? ‘Edun’ or ‘Jones’?”

So they did bring out a third after all. The black one seems a bit pointless but expect it'll sell well if it appears on the website again.

So if anything, too safe this year but again they're all inoffensive

He looks ready for the dinner table. Strict dress code you have there :-)
