Daggers Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I'd be OK with a re-run of the green kit Leese was wearing on Saturday too...even if it is a little bit West Brom! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I'd vastly prefer a nice natural, traditional coloured kit like all red to some of the asymmetrical amber tosh that we've been reduced to over recent years. I like the idea of an all white kit a la early seventies but would more than likely buy a red away shirt providing it was made by a better manufacturer/had a better sponsor.My ideal kits: Home - Blue shirt/white shorts/blue socks Away - All white 3rd kit - All red My thoughts exactly - so everyone's taste is pleased (or should). Please no more yellow away kits - they look awful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh1884 Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I would love it if we introduced a red kit, my 1st ever city kit was the red 85-87 one & to this day it's still the greatest leicester shirt I've owned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilo Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 The kits are to be replaced at the end of this season. In the light of recent supply problems with Jako it may be that we return to the supplier who was negotiating with the club before Jako were brought in - a supplier who had a Lineker-type red strip in the pipeline. Over the course of the last season it appeared as though many of you quite fancied having a traditional red away or third kit. If there are a reasonable number of people expressing a positive feedback to this survey then the matter will be directed to the club, interested parties and the Leicester media. A full plan of action has been drawn up in order to maximise the PR for the activity and a basic website has been created for the benefit of the media or interested parties. A quick list of recent red kits can be seen below this post. 1987-88 is interesting as we had a red away strip AND a red third kit! Obviously, if sentiment now runs counter to the adoption of a red-based away/third strip then the matter will be closed. 1979-1983 1984-1985 1985-1987 1985-1987 1987-1988 1987-1988 1988-1990 1990-1991 Red Leicester. Any idea who that supplier was? If it was Umbro, the shirt would look too close to the F***t kit and I wouldn't consider buying one. It'd be interesting to find out anyway.

Flynny Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I don't know why people don't like Jako, I think our kit looks dead smart, especially the trim which is a touch of class. I'll cry if we ever lose it. Red a touch darker than scarlet, which trim, gurning tile man on the front, whats not to like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

act smiley Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 Another City legend wearing his version of the red strip: That just makes me think green with red shorts would be quite good, not convinced by red shirts myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fosse Boy Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I don't know why people don't like Jako, I think our kit looks dead smart, especially the trim which is a touch of class. Well, in my humble and worthless opinion the Jako home kit is just asymmetrical Portsmouth-tastic bollocks, but then again I do have a history of being something of a neo-traditionalist when it comes to football kits. I like them simple and blue, like the one we had when we were last in the top flight. I'm not a fan of the black away kit either, makes us look like a team of referees, although I thought the one we had with the sky blue sash was nice because it meant something as it was part of our history. Red or white would be the only colours I'd consider buying in terms of away kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red or white would be the only colours I'd consider buying in terms of away kits. Agree with all that. I think the shield around the crest is the worst part of the design, overly fussy detail in my arrogant opinion. Also, I much prefer the traditional blue shirts, white shorts combo. We really should have gone for a simple, retro design for our 125th anniversary. I'd even go far as to say we could have introduced a modernised version of our old crest, as Chelski did for their 100th anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonezy Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 We need to get rid of the yellow horror. I really hate the yellow kit. Red or green would be perfect, and lets have a red, as it would make Daggers go absolutely mental. The Wallington version green shirt/red shorts is actually not a bad idea. Just please no more frickin yellow..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stig Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 My order of preference for away kit. White Black / Red Burgandy Yellow I just feel yellow kits look too cheap. In answer to the question yes red would make a nice change but I don't think it will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavrentis Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I would like a nice silver or gold kit. Failing that, all Green with yellow trim would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stig Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I would like a nice silver or gold kit. Failing that, all Green with yellow trim would be nice. Silver would be larvely but again its far too bold for a Leicester kit. We never seem to do anything different. As for green have you seen our GK kits, they're always bloody awful.

Royston. Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 Call me old fashioned but white should be the away colour. I wouldnt be too fussed if we had a red third strip. I think third strips are more of a novelty to squeeze more money out of us although sometimes they may be a necessity. The colour doesnt matter as much as the manufacturer and sponsor. I imagine a red Jako shirt with topps tiles would still look cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil_LCFC Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 Leicester shouldn't have a red kit I prefer white with blue shorts for a 2nd kit. For those who like red how about a Hearts coloured away top for a 3rd kit ? my sunday league team have one & it looks smart, better & more unusual than red.

AmericanScott Posted 26 August 2008 Share Posted 26 August 2008 I'd like a white kit with a red stripe (no, not the beverage) down the middle. Kind of like Brum's away kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
