1879 kit idea
« on January 31, 2013, 11:53:53 am by River Don »
The x design seems to lend itself to rugby league or jockey silks. How about this instead?

That looks fantastic. I'd buy that shirt, looks good and the colours go well as do the badges/sponsor on the front.

Ah but if you notice, I did a cycling style collar with a zipper! That's roughly what its meant to suggest anyway.

Yes, but it's not the same style as the original, so why bother with the square when we had the cross?

Well, it is still a cross but I know what you're saying. It's just a suggestion.

If we're doing an 1879 remake, it would have to be a X and not a +, otherwise it isn't an 1879 remake...

It's just that it's a bit too close to looking like the flag of St.David (although that is a black/yellow square).....
if you see what I mean!

I think the color may have more to do with my monitor, it desperately needs re-calibrating. It shouldn't be that close to black.

It's interesting that putting the cross at a jaunty angle doesn't seem to attract attention but turn it through the full 45 degrees and it becomes an issue.

It won't be a Scottish flag, sorry to be pedantic but that is white on blue, not yellow on blue.  It's how out first kit looked - so what if it was similar to a flag, it would have our badge on it...

Too Welsh or too Scottish?

Actually, thinking about it, I wonder if it might be too Swedish.

Yet you advocate a Celtic hooped away shirt.

You're not very consistent are you? Make up your mind .....

Thing is the original shirt looks like a Jockey's Jersey. With Coppingergate and Wilsongate hanging over the club is this a suitable choice?
