Yep sorry neither kit my thing this Yr. Thought I'd try and give the home kit a chance to grow on me but seeing as it's a training top for the knights......not a chance.
If this is the last season of elite sports (3 out of 3) I'd say by far the worst.

That said if sales keep going up I can see them being given a longer contract
That Knights shirt is quite frankly nothing like Rovers home shirt.

Go and see it for yourself. The Rovers home shirt is very classy imo. It looks better than on a photo.

Have we got rid of the best kit I have seen in 35+years? the black and grey?

I thought that had a real look of class about it, I felt we played better in that kit too :unsure:

I don’t think it’s too bad, just don’t really like the colour blue, reminds me of the Peterborough, Chesterfield, Italy, the tories etc
Not a massive fan of the home kit but suppose they’ve got to mix it up on the them a bit.
Do like a green away kit as somebody else said, reminds me of away trips in my youth.

Same here. I don't mind the away design at all, but I'm not sure about the colour scheme. I'd like green in the away kit too, but swapping the blue for green might be a bit much so I'd make the blue part white and the white part green.

The away kit should always be green.

Love some of the constructive criticism! Ha.

Looks ok to me. For those of a certain age has an Owls feel about it with the white sleeves.

Can't get too excited or disappointed as it's only for a season anyway!

Don't understand what the problem is there will be at least 7/8 games where we won't wear it as the home club will probably be wearing blue

Given the home kit is full-on red I would have gone for a all white away kit with the red cuffs, late 60s style

Lazy effort. Generic.

Having said that, my boy likes it so got him one for an early birthday pressie, nabbed the free Copps 26 shirt, and got myself a home kit.

I have the self discipline of Gazza on a brewery trip.

I've never got this green kit love in, to me it's always been an unlucky colour and I don't recall us ever being world beaters in it.

The black and grey kit of last season was one of the best in a long while.

I'm.hoping the home kit grows on you as the away one is pretty naff, reminds more of a poor none league kit.

You've already outed yourself as a fashion luddite when you said you didn't like last year's away kit, Campsall.

I was waiting for someone to come up with this, now that was great but a once in a generation occurance.

The worst thing about that day for me was i was working 12miles away on a safety critical job, so no idea what was going on !

It staggers me so many people seem to like that grey/ black kit.
It is better close up agreed but watching on the I pad it looks very dreary to me.

Everyone to their own of course. It would be a boring world if we all thought the same.

My days as a fashion icon probably vanished 45 years ago RtR.  Oh well there was me thinking i had good taste.
Blow the lot of you I really like this new home kit.  :that:

Went up from Cov today.     Both kits are 5 out of 10....hope we go with hunmel who have done some stunning cov city kits recently. 

Got my 11yo the yellow keepers short sleeve.   It looks class

I think that's my favourite of all the new shirts.

The away kit should always be green.

As a boring aside green kits have just been banned in Serie A starting from 2022/23 season. Complaints about players blending in against the grass.

And that is quite possibly some of the reasoning behind it :)

Have the club just bought 2 job lots from a dodgy Thai warehouse and slapped a rovers badge on ?

Home and away kits both awful thus year .

I think home shirt looks really well.

I'd have preferred the black away top again, that looks fantastic

Not a fan of the home shirt at all doesn't look particularly traditional Rovers, but guess that's not a bad thing.

Personally really like the away shirt, different from anything we have ever had before. Don't think it looks like Posh, Ipswich, Sheff Wed's as other people have put other than the colours. The style is very different.
