Seemingly in a minority of one here, but i actually quite like that. Something different, and as others have said it's based on their club badge.ForeverAddickted said:Barcelona's kit for next season...
The 2 coloured shorts make it look worse though i think.0 -
Cambridge's away Hummel shirt is a bit nicer than the home
The pattern on the shirt reminds me of something as well

Are we are we to assume that the fanfare for the new ground breaking sponsor is now not happening ?0

Interesting article on how Hummel have researched/designed Boro's kits over the last few seasons. Re-emphasises how lucky we are to have these guys making our kits rather than getting hand-me-down templates from the likes of Nike7 -
Very similar to what Rob told me and @cafc999 about the process
We have the 30 odd initial designs from the season before last in the museum plus swatches and design instructions.4 -
I really hope we stick with Hummel next year. I think it’s even more fitting now with our Danish links. So much thought goes into each and every kit. And they’ve all been at least decent.16
-
Haven’t liked the material or the fit of the Hummel shirts I’ve bought compared to Nike. Decent designs though!2

IMHO the deal isn't done as otherwise it would have been announced but if/when it is there will be some fanfare because that is what the sponsor will almost certainly want.
Otherwise, why bother spending a few hundred thousand (and that is likely to be the annual amount, not millions) sponsoring a football club?
Again, we don't know "zip all" has happened, we only know it hasn't been announced, probably, IMHO, because it's not been signed off/has collapsed/never existed.
But absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
The use of "imminent" was unwise in my opinion but it's hardly surprising that a sales and marketing guy talked up his pipeline.
As ever, ignore terms like "imminent" and remember WIOTOS0 -
Why would any sponsor want their announcement to be lost in the general football noise of of euros? I can see any sponsor, partner or new kit announcements being made whilst England are still in the Euros, and probably not whilst the Euros are even happening0

Or maybe it was imminent and then a problem came up a bit like a last minute snag when selling a house.

Hummel's shirts are a more sporty fit and fabric is comparable imo - actually it's not they're nicer for doing sport in than the Nike stuff was.Taxi_Lad said:Haven’t liked the material or the fit of the Hummel shirts I’ve bought compared to Nike. Decent designs though!
Designs are streets ahead of the Nike stuff, but that's cos we were a catalogue club.0 -
all kits also look better with proper boots (Adidas World Cup / Adidas Copa Mundial / Puma King - delete as appropriate)DA9 said:

Adidas consistently produce decent tops.1

Adidas Nike and Puma, unless you are a big team with millions of shirt sales every year, are complete pony. The smaller kit brands like Hummel, Errea etc are much better for teams like us as they get more exposure and we get more bespoke kits.
Like Henners said, Hummel would send us patterns, designs etc for loads of ideas for kits. Nike sent us a catalogue with 4 red kits in it circled and said pick one for us to stick your badge on, oh and btw Leyton Orient and Barnsley already picked these 2 and Southend, Portsmouth and Peterborough have these other ones but in different colours12
