Don't usually have much of an opinion on our shirts as I'm never going to be buying another one anyway, but all the sleeve logos make this one of the ugliest ones I can remember. 

Certainly not in the Adidas 3 stripes category.

Tom Sparrow won't be happy either. Last season he said he hated collars like that.

If I didn't already know I was too old to be wearing the new shirt, the music on the release video would have reminded me.

I'm off to have a lie down and listen to some Jesus and Mary Chain.

I don't think the kids today could cope with Upside Down.

'What's that awful noise?' 'Scruffy hooligans' 'No tune'. etc.

Without all the sponsors on it the shirt wouldnt look too bad. I quite like the white Macron down the sleeves. A hark back to the old Scotland Umbro kits.

However, the shorts/socks combo doesnt work for me.

I also prefer claret shorts. But if we are going for white, the socks needed to be claret.

All that said, Im also not the demographic its aimed at so it will probably go down a storm with the weans!

The jersey is quite similar to the 2009/10 Canterbury effort especially with the badge and the manufacturer logo in the centre. That kit had amber shorts mind you.

For me, it’s far more like the Matchwinner shirt of 1987-89 but with loads of stuff stuck on it

It's one of those shirts that will likely look pretty good as part of a whole kit, worn by footballers on a football pitch, but maybe not so much worn by the average Scottish guy with jeans and a pair of trainers. 

I'll likely wait and see what the training collection looks like this year.

As someone who doesn’t mind a centralised badge and prefers white shorts, this strip should be my cup of tea. Sadly, there’s too much going on with it. I’m very surprised we didn’t go with a cleaner looking home kit after last year’s muddle.

Talking of surprises, how have we ended up with lucky tiger? Even if due diligence has been upped after recent experiences, surely we have the financial security and morals to limit sponsorship to organisations that are aligned to our community and family values?

very similar to the '87 strip.  Just shows how diluted the amber has become over the years.  Some similarities to the 09 top. 

The home strip often is a bit disappointing. image.thumb.png.ca6e6099bd0f1a82047e4b979042e17d.pngaointing.

Financial security is a bold statement to make in the context of a football club, they are not allowed to advertise Alcohol or Tobacco etc but gambling is fair game, put a print of a tiger on your shorts for a no doubt 6 figure wedge of cash is a no brainer for the club, free money.

Within reason, it doesn't matter to me who our sponsors are. If we are going to apply moral criteria, where do we draw the line? What is acceptable to one fan might be completely unacceptable to another. If we are going to start applying moral criteria when seeking sponsors, we might be fishing in a very small pond.

As for Lucky Tiger, I know nothing about them whatsoever.

What i find utterly bizarre is Glen's Vodka is a league sponsor partner you see it all over the place at games its hard to miss but clubs are not to allowed to have an alcohol sponsor its a bit ridiculous.

As for new kit i like it and I couldn't care who the sponsor is tbh as long as they pay its good for me in a world where its probably getting harder and harder to attract any type of sponsor its probably very very slim pickings.

I think it is decent, might be tempted. 

If fans like it then buy it and if they don't no need to

I personally wasn't a fan of 25-26 away kit and havent purchased even when reduced,  though plenty I know like it

On the flipside of the coin I liked the 22-23 Home kit and others didn't

Does anyone know if we got paid a significant amount to turn the strip into an F1 jaiket with all the sponsor stuff ?
