I'm going to go out on a limb here. I reckon some people will like it, and some won't.

Still not happy that the hoops aren’t hoops but otherwise I don’t mind it

Something I did notice on the vid is that Greeny is wearing a shirt from 20 years ago, they must have been made better than the ones that the ones sold in the club shop, as the ones I bought from there seem to have shrunk over the years!

Yep, and when I look down they've made my feet shrink too!

Only available online and charging about £7 for delivery which you have to pay. That's a bit naughty.

 I will wait until they are in the club shop

not hoops as they don't go all the way around because of the horrific red 'number square' on the back ?

if yes - you are quite correct !!

Yes, a bit of a nod to the 2007 JPT winning Carlotti shirt, although I hope we don't go back to the hooped socks.

I’m still holding out for a return if the Arsenal style Pilkington Glass shirt from the mid 80’s. Think I’m in a minority but I live in hope!

I really like it. I think it’s my favourite home shirt in years. I would have preferred it without a sleeve sponsor though

Post by: coventryrover on June 02, 2026, 07:49:40 pm
Its a no for me.   Oxen use the same material all the time, no sublimation.

The gold touches look out of place.


The collar is horrible.


Prefer hoops to go all the way round..

Think Oxen are going a bit stale.   Cant believe the length of the contract they have.

Still, just my opinion

Front looks good but again we have to give up the full hoops in the name of legibility for others. As fans we know who's who and don't need the players number standing out like a race horse saddle.

Overall good effort!

I think that’s Leon ayinde (could be wrong though)

Looks nothing like Leon Ayinde. Probs just a model.

I like it but the only thing thats bothering me is the black around the badge, think thats a tad too much but im sure ill get used to it!

Still got my Carlotti shirt, hoops and the black away shirt.

Big improvement on last season, glad they binned the horrible blue trims.

Wish it were white shorts though, would look so much better

It's a lovely kit this year. Purchasing the shirt for sure

Liking it even more, the more I see it. It looks a better deeper red than the 2007 version. Looks classy so let's play some classy football to match.

White shorts every time for me. Red shorts make the kit look gaudy.

Got mine on Friday. The gold bits look really nice. The badge is a cheaper affair than last season though but overall I’m a fan.

Black shorts for me as worn in our halcyon days.

What's the odds on it being a green away kit? What after the
90s seaweed reproduction at the legends game as well.

But has anyone noticed the numbers in the collar  of the training gear. I had no idea what it meant so googled it thinking it was co-orordinates.

But no, it ls the loco numbers of Mallard. Blue training kit, blue train.

So thoughts jump to The Flying Scotsman. Green Train, Green kit maybe?

Obviously I've had b*gger all to do at work today
