FS - I literally did spend about five minutes on the sponsor logo part of this a few weeks back. Braehead rendered their logo on our shirts like this, so it can be done. I just knew they'd slap it in a box though.

When can i order one of them ?   Cracking efforts on both Bud

Absolutely hate this kit

Knew the minute we went to Joma we would get a shocker of a home kit. It's so shite☹️

Me too. Looks a wee bit like the Tom Hendrie title winning Cetco kit. Which is no bad thing.

I think our new shirt is absolutely fine even if it's not spectacular. I always prefer a saints shirt being more white than black though. 

The Joma shirt in the video Is from the teamwear catalogue and is the template Poz designed the kit around a few months back.

That being said, I'd have preferred us going bespoke on the basis of this stripe layout rather than thicker stripes but again, not complaining as it's certainly nowhere near the worst kits we've churned out.

I'd buy both of those. Look great. Top effort.

Hate it. Overengineered and personally, where the designers have decided in the past that even a proper stripey kit needs to be predominantly black or predominantly white, I've always preferred those that have been more white.

That said, the design of the 2013 cup winning strip was perfection in itself. Simple stripes, not to broad, not to narrow. Simple round neck.

Glorious. Should've just kept that strip forever more.

Ah! Just saw Shull's other thread. He appears to have somewhat pre-empted my now pointless post above.

New strip is too fussy and over designed. When it comes to football kit like a lot of things in life, less is more.

Whilst I'm not particularly upset by this strip, (god knows we've seen much worse) I agree that the amount of black on show does outweigh the white and yes it's a bit too "fussy". As ever the Juventus strip seems to be the arbiter of good taste and design in black & white and I don't know why we don't just copy it every year ? My favourite Saints sttips have been the simplest, 1977-1981 era, the 1999-2000 'Cetco' and Poz's effort from 2012-13. At the end of the day I'm more concerned with what the ten guys wearing it every other weekend do, of course.

Totally agree. Why not copy Juventus first and second strips every year. Italian flair Bella Bella.

We would then have to wait every season for Juve to bring out their strip before we could even start ours. Would be lucky to get it out for Xmas. We could, of course, copy the previous season's Juve strip and have it available for Easter.

 

Just googling "when is EASTER?" and what did Juve's strip look like last season?

The arena is in the main shopping centre which is in Renfrewshire.

Shorts and socks look different from previous images. No four hooped socks and shorts would appear to only have a white stripe down each side and no big white arse shape.

A co-ordinated and coherent launch from St Mirren. Aye right... a half-arsed pre-launch Twatter leak of images that did the kit no favours, were probably only half of the correct kit, and should never have happened at all. Who posted the images on Twatter anyway?

The new strip looks pretty decent to me but I love the black training top with the white piping. Will be getting one of them.

[foxbar_bud 1,717]

Looks good to me too, top a bit busy but I quite like it.

Hopefully no issues and it's on sale when it's meant to be

[MarkL 238]

Now I seen on the players I hate it even more. It's awful, total pub team kit

[Callum Gilhooley 10,205]

I like it. Would have preferred the side stripe full length , not sure of the black bit halfway down the side & just dont get the wee zig zag bit  but still , decent enough.

7.5 /10 for me.

[Seaside Nipper 2,550]

Get off to a decent start this season and that kit will be a good seller. Very little wrong with the kit, black shorts and socks are pleasing, I quite like the kit tbh.

The degree of criticism over the minutiae on detail is amazing. Didn't know there was such passion for fashion in Paisilee !!

[TopCat 7,426]

It wouldn't be the summer without a bunch of guys on here getting into a state over a daft football strip.
