Re: New Shirt Unveiled
Simple and Superb ! love the gold touches, reminds me of the 99/00 season, will look good with black or white shorts

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
Not a big fan of the hoops (though I know it's unique), just think this plainer shirt looks more professional. Think they should have had plain black socks with it though.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I like it. Looks decent and reminds me a bit of the 99/00 shirt and the Spurs kit when they ran Arsenal close for 4th spot a few years back.
As much as I loved the shirt last season I think I will forever associate it with Houghton, admin and a summer of chasing shadows and worrying about the Wearside league.
A new kit for a new beginning!

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
That is very nice, I was dissapointed as anyone to see the hoops were being dropped, but that is very nice
Re: New Shirt Unveiled
On first impressions I think this is the nicest top I've seen us wear. As someone mentioned I always thought the hoops looked a bit tacky/unprofessional. Know there are those that strongly disagree but I think it's class.
Don't buy the shirts too often but will definately be getting one now. Roll on September.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
i don't know how it will look but I wouldn't have the hooped socks, just plain black would look better. I guess the club thought the hoops would keep some of our tradition maybe.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
Much better than I thought it would be, I hope the material is decent. I liked the hoops but maybe a break was needed
.
Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I think it looks very smart and I'm glad that they chose to have black shorts instead of white. I will definitely be picking up a shirt as soon as I can.
Is the away shirt based on the same style?

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
This kit looks really good. Yeah, we don't have the hoops - yet - but I think that a lot of credit should go to Mr Singh and Mr Fordy for getting this produced under the circumstances and I think that it is actually a nice touch with the hooped socks.
Initially I was thinking twice about getting a new shirt this coming season.....however this is definately a new shirt I'll be purchasing and befitting of a new and hopeful era!!! ONWARD AND UPWARDS, COME ON DARLO!!!!

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I didn't get one last season but will this time.
Wasn't too fussed with last seasons initally as I thought the red was too much. However as the season wore on it really grew on me and I'm not sure why I didn't get one.
This season is a definate purchase however as I was really impressed when I saw it this morning. Good stuff indeed. Hopefully it will be out in September before I fly off on holiday.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
Very smart indeed! I'm really impressed.
Oh and as for consulting the fans, i think the consultation was when they said we weren't going to be having hoops.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
must admit i like it, will be getting one myself when they come out
Re: New Shirt Unveiled
Very simple, very straightforward, very nice. Thumbs up from me.
Maybe even go back to the classic narrow hoops design next time?
Anyone know for sure what colour the away kit is going to be?

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I love this new shirt and agree with people about it looking like the 99/00 shirt (which is one of my favourite darlo shirts ever)
Well done to all involved I will most certainly be buying this in september
I hope the team is as good as they will look

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
Rarely buy the shirts, but I really like this one. Hopefully the training kit will be of a similar standard.
Any news on an away shirt?

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I like it. Might pick one up depending on the quality of the material.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
well done mr singh, it looks a classic to me!
Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I haven't bought a Darlington shirt in well over a decade but I might just buy one this year. It looks good. Not too fussed on the hooped socks but I doubt I will be wearing them to matches this coming season.
Re: New Shirt Unveiled
OK I'll give it a thumbs up, but like a lot of others I do have a thing about the hoops , it's something that seems to mean the quakers . Hope it comes with black shorts.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I really like it. I hate the hoops. No matter what people say, we have had non-hooped shirts for more years than we've had hooped ones and so are not a tradition on Celtic proportions.
I'm really pleased we've dropped those horrible hoops albeit probably unfortunately temporarily.

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
I'm with Deneside Quaker on this one. Thank God someone will share the flack with me!
Hoops are for eggchasers, Celtic and QPR. And maybe Reading at a push.
Anyway, I love the new shirt, but quite frankly as long as we play in black and white with the DFC badge on I'm not bothered. But the hooped socks? Naaah!

Re: New Shirt Unveiled
Looks really smart, like it. Job well done considering the time-frame and the difficulty in sorting out bespoke designs contracts etc. Just happy we have a club to watch so not too fussed about losing the hoops.
Not sure how many seasons in our history we have actually worn hoops. Any budding Frank Tweddle's out there to enlighten us?
