I think its hideous. The black on the sleeves completely clashes with the rest of the shirt and it looks odd! Our colours are blue and white so why the black and white shorts? Its shite

I could live with the weird black bits if the colour was right, it's WAY too light, like a Coventry kit. Amazing the club can get this stuff so wrong, can you imagine Chelsea merchandising team suddenly deciding to give sky blue a go just for a change or because the kit manufacturers suggested it! You won't find a single town piece of merchandise, memorabilia or replica kit in that shade so why sky blue ffs?!

I don't mind the shade of blue, perhaps a tiny bit darker would be better but it is similar to the best kit we have had and that was the panasonic kit. The black though, its just plain daft.

It seems like more people approve than don't. More so than last year's. I think it looks better in person rather than on the photo showing Davidson in a size too big.

Best kit we've had in years...IMO since the wonderful Gola away avalanche kit...it is very Argentina-ish but I've always loved their kit.

We don't like it, cos it goes against what we - the fans - think about football, but top brass always bang on about branding. Well, 'proper' brands have brand guidelines to ensure a bit of consistency. Coca Cola don't don't use a dozen different reds over all their stuff. Shell Oil don't piss about with their yellow. Why not have an 'official' Huddersfield Town blue ("their colours are BRIGHT blue and white") and build a brand around that?

Yet another dog's dinner of a kit. Any old crap will do these days it seems but then again that's what you get when they churn out a new kit every season. No doubt the gullible will snap them up. Enjoy wearing your Argentina shirts folks.

Overall I'd give it the thumbs up. Difficult to come up with something new each season and most kits over the last 10 years or more have been worse than this looks to be. Like the fact that the stripes are on the back as well, I hate those plain blue or white backs. Personally prefer black socks and they'd have looked smart with that kit, but no problem with white. Logo is what it is and could have been worse. Never buy them anyway. UEFA regulations (which apply to European competition but will have to be taken into account when generating templates for shirts) only allow stripes on the back when there is less than 25% chromatic difference between the colours, which is why (for example) Milan and Barcelona are wearing darker colours now. Being a lighter blue will account for this.

Too much black would have made it worse imo.

I think the shirt may grow on me. Glad we have gone back to white socks. It makes us 'look' quicker somehow.

At first thought it was poor but seeing it up close and on the players actually on the pitch looks load better than the publicity shots

White socks makes us look a bit more fleet footed.

Really like it personally.....a little bit different and perhaps not my favourite blue colour, but it's a kit and the team we love will be wearing it. Hope it's an excellent seller and the club make a few quid on it.

I was in Whitby on Saturday, and I saw a young lad walking up the street in a full away kit. I would have been able to see him if he had been in SCARBOROUGH !!

Looks a bit Sunday League doesn't it? I guess that's what happens when you can only pick a template and try and make it look different from other teams who have the same templates to choose from. The only way we could make our kit different from Colchester's was to put a really out of place black stripe on there.
Was against us leaving Mitre for one of the big suppliers for this reason. Umbro was tolerable as at least their templates were decent, but I haven't liked a Puma kit yet. Closest was last season's away kit, but they didn't put hoops on the back.

Perhaps it's a cost-saving exercise. Royal blue just used too much dye!
