Glory comes in three colours....with a touch of yellow
Thursday, June 25, 2009 at 6:40AM Morning all.
As you will no doubt have seen, the kits have been launched with a rather snazzy presentation on the official site. No surprise that the leaked designs have turned out to be spot on. Drum roll....
If it was not for the yellow bits, this would easily qualify as one of the smartest home shirts for a long time.
Not too shabby. Yellow on blue isn't that bad. But again, its unnecessary.
I have utterly no idea what the lines/track marks are meant to be on the side, but regardless - it's a decent shirt.So that's that. The people who like it will buy it (the home shirt). The people who don't wont. No doubt, as long as we are winning, we can be playing in white bin bags for all I care, and I'll be more than content. It's just a shame that some fruit-cake thought it best to add those streaks in.
How about a nice limited edition all white home shirt for the purists?
COYS and all that jazz.

the yellow on the home jersey looks ridiculous. though it looks great in the away one.
Shocking... Why the yellow it looks *rap.. would of been better with blue strips and then away with white instead of yellow.
The blue arsenal shirt is nicer and I **** Arsenal...
Why the blue...
Shame it was not true about the Nike / Nintendo shirt which was floating around weeks ago...
Now that looked cool...
You can just tell that the designer finished the design and sat back in his chair content with his work....then, for whatever reason, decided to grab his yellow pen and add some bits....the fool.
Bless you SpursSi - with the language on here sometimes why did you feel the need to star out 'crap'???
Don't know why most people are complaining bout the yellow....IT ADDS COLOUR DAMMIT! all u talking bout plain white! BORRRRRRRRING!
Ever heard of the Lilywhites?
The home shirt would look a lot better if the colourd in bits were blue instead of yellow, that yellow just looks odd. Away shirt aint to bad, im quite liking the yellow one though. if i end up purchasing one il be taking a punt on the 3rd i think.
Never thought I'd see the day when Spurs ran out at home with red and yellow on the shirts,Bloody disgrace!!
Love the thought of the week. :)
Worst Tottenham home kit ever. Rubbish design, and the use of so much yellow is completely against the club traditions. Anyone who says 'who cares as long as they win in it' has sold out to the notion that its all only about winning (we're supposed to be about doing your best and doing it with style) and anyone who says 'if you're a real supporter you'll buy it anyway' is a total mug.
I emailed the club and Paul Barber tried to tell me yellow has been a 'core colour' for 127 years. Truth is there's only ever been that much yellow on one Spurs kit and that was 111 years ago, and we didn't get yellow away shirts until 1968, so that shows how 'core' the yellow is. As other have said, on top of the red, gambling logo that we've already had to swallow (all the way down to nipper sizes to boot), this is just disgraceful!
Click this, select the blue option, and you have pretty much what the home shirt should have been, without the tacky mansion logo and massive yellow blocks.

Stylish.
Come on people its not that bad. I know pure white would have been nice (loved the all white kit a couple of seasons ago) but still its ok. I guess it will look good on field actually.
The rest of the kits are good though.
Meh. It's alright. Better than Chelsea's Tron-like effort and Celtic's tartan shorts. Is it me or have they actually made the Mansion logo a bit smaller?
I'll buy one if we beat Arsenal in the league.
The 'Lines/tracks' on the third shirt are Pumas branding. You can see it on the shoulder of last seasons third shirt. You can also see it on their other products, check out Puma King boots for example, they have a stripe down them.
I personally like the home shirt and believe it will look a lot better in real life.
Spooky,
Enough of the sh1t kit already, please.
I read somewhere that some fans of Feyornood (sp?) protested the same shit design and got it changed! Any chance we could do the same?
Spooky, don't give up complaining about this kit. The yellow is awful but in keeping the red mansion logo we have let our fans down yet again. It 's a disgrace. I cant believe we have to wait another year before we can buy a home shirt. The people in power aren't real fans and will only care what we think when this shirt doesn't make enough money for them through sales. Only then will we see a change in attitude. So hopefully our fans will make a stand with the only way that works and keep their money in their pockets in relation to this shirt. I certainly will. So come on spurs fans and grow a spine. Stop being weak by putting up with this shit which ye have done for too many years. COYS

LOL
The thing is how many blokes choose to wear yellow? I mean, when was the last time you woke up and thought 'I could really do with some yellow trousers?' - Spurs please - stick to the dark blue and white.
