New kit for 2023/24

I can even live with the sponsor on the front. My only niggle is I'm not a fan of having a sponsor below the hoop on the back. I don't mind across the shoulders.

Also delighted we've avoided the "lets print some 1970's curtains into the fabric" trend.

Our best home kit in years. 
 

Simple, traditional and a full claret hoop. Absolutely love it. After last years shanner it is a breath of fresh air.
 

I’d imagine the numbers and names will be in white printing given the C&A combination on the back of the top? Unless we use black.

When MJC is positive it's definitely a good sign,!! Only joking bud

Cracking kit.

Traditional design with a modern twist.

They will fly off the shelf.

Not crazy about the sponsor, but  Id feel the same about that regardless of who it was. 

Couple of decent signings and all will be good in the world again......

A sponsorless version being an option to buy like the 20/21 kit would be cracking for this one. Though that one was released before the shirt sponsor deal had been signed so it’s probably unlikely in this case.

Why do you think they have divisive kits every few years?

Very nice looking kit. I agree with those who reckon it would look even better without the sponsors but also realise that they are a financial necessity. Congratulations to all involved on a job well done.

Now, if they can bring themselves to stick with a mainly all white away kit, I will be a really happy camper!

I love a white away kit but doubt very much that we will get another one when we had one last year.

Its been a while since we had all claret so would think thats likely unless we go totally out the box with whatever fashion colour the marketing team have assessed will sell best.

Id quite like another black away kit but with the claret, amber and white bands across the chest like the last blue kit. I like the italian styling of those type of kits.

The problem I see with an all claret away kit is that it defeats the purpose of a kit designed to avoid a clash when the sides we normally change against (Aberdeen, Hearts) play in a similar colour. Having said that, it seems that these days teams use their alternate kit almost on a whim, so maybe it doesn’t really matter?

 

If we are looking for something slightly different for a change, how about avoiding black (for referees and Eastern European goalies only) and grey ( just looks wrong and has an unlucky track record with other clubs) and try something new. Sky blue anyone? Or forest green?

I get that kits need to change and occasionally ‘mix it up’ but kits like last seasons or the jester kit from the 90s just go too far imo.

That was my biggest gripe with the last claret away kit we had (18/19) that we insisted on wearing in in every away game even when there was no colour clash. The only away games we didn’t wear it were against Aberdeen, Hearts and Dundee. As far as I see it, change kits should only be worn when there is a colour clash with the home team and should NEVER be worn in a home game. But it’s not up to me obviously.

Chances are we may bring two change kits out as we did last year, so a claret change kit as the main one wouldn’t be a bad shout.

New home stip looks the business - a modern version of our classic home strip. Nice to see a chain of posts that we're agreeing. 

Away strip . White one may be too similar to last year but I'd be delighted to see either of these.

Yup, always loved the classic "floodlight strip" as it used to be called. Last season's white outfit was pretty nice too.

I'm usually agnostic on the view that a sponsor often ruins a shirt; however, not this time. The font size, choice, and asymmetry of that 'G4 Claims' logo completely ruin a lovely shirt design. The logo looks like it was made in MS PowerPoint. It's making me yearn for the delicate and subtle font design of the Paycare logo.

As far as I'm concerned, if whatever the sponsor wants to do fits in the band and doesn't give you a migraine (here's looking at you, Zoom) it's fine by me. Just a little odd that G4 do have a logo that might have given it a bit less of a summer intern vibe, but they've chosen not to include it.

I'm speculating, but maybe they thought that logo was more visible on telly, cameras etc.

Looks like they will be the shirt sponsor for Dundee Utd too, so maybe they wanted a logo that worked on both jerseys.

Whatever the reason, I like it better than Hibs bevvy.com effort with the QR code.
