12/13 Kits
Arsenal, Barcelona and Manchester United 12/13 Home Football Kits leaked
Comments
even though i am a united fan i gotta say the Chelsea kits have been better that the united ones for a few years now
But man this is the worst Arsenal kit I've seen since the bruised banana ones.
What I don't understand is why Nike calls a dark blue "obsidian" as it's usually considered a version of black, not blue.
Chelsea and barca are best ;)
Quoting GoonMan:
Don't you think they've mixed up the Arsenal and Man Utd socks? Red for Man U, Black for Arsenal? Don't think so!
HA! wow ur joking. When it come to football/soccer, Adidas over Nike any day...FACT!
Apart from on the Man United socks.
Learn some of the history of clubs and shirts, and you won't sound like an idiot.
When city last used their red and black kit (over 40 yrs ago), the rivalry was nowhere near as intense as it is now, so its feels like a slight dig/mocking (maybe just in my eyes) - similar to what city fans would have felt when we did the poznan in the ethiad stadium during the most recent fa cup meeting.
Well thats not true, they had red kits in 08/09 and 03/05 not to mention several times in the 80's and 90's.
Its got nothing to with a dig at man utd.
Tim And Grant Are Correct..
Manchester City used red Kits Throughout Their History..
Just Like Manchester United Used Royal Blue Through Their Away Kit History... 1939-April 1957 Is The Longest one..
By What jorge Is Saying That means We Can Say Manchester United Nicked Chelsea's Colours..
Grant never said sky blue at any point. troll.
And the blue of 1968 also decends from the first away strip of man utd in 1902 when they wore blue and white stripes, and also throughout the 40s when they wore solid blue shirts with white shorts as away kits
The City of Manchester (not Man City football club) official colour is blue, so there you go.
No big mystery, and in 1968 at least, it wasn't based on the club's tradtion.
The truth is that back in those days, if there was a kit clash in a cup final, BOTH teams were expected to wear their away kits. The problem was that Benfica and United both had white away kits. As you say, Benfica were deemed the "home" team in the 1968 final, so United opted to play in the royal blue kit.
Manchester has no official colour. If it did it would most likely be red as that (along with gold) is what colour the arms are.
I'm definitely wrong in that.
However, according to a United history/encyclopaedia I looked up when I got home, it was because it was the city's colour. (Although google can't confirm this, maybe it's not anymore, or just wasn't official.) They also adopted the City's coat of arms too.
They did use blue kits before from time to time, for the same reason (apparently).
I was wrong about the other parts though- both teams did wear change strips, and I should have gotten that right (in my defence, I did type that up 15 mins before heading to a stressful exam).
You're all arguing for vaguely the same thing. We know It was something to do with Benfica in the European Cup final, we know that it was royal blue, not sky (a la Man City). Put the handbags down and reach a happy medium.
yeah ud only tink united kits are shite cause bet u dont support them u fool.
just because you don't like it doesn't necessarily mean its fake!
Arsenal have at time worn kits with navy blue in it, which I believe that colour is, Such a poor quality photo you cannot tell. The Barca socks look a bit dodge because they are so light in colour. Maybe they were just random socks they got together to put with the rest of the kit???
Why?, Villa wear white/blue socks traditionally.... Nike have given us black this season.
Only two decent designs from Nike this year and both of those are for the Dutch.
Also the Barca/Man U designs have been around a while now, be very surprised if they weren't the real thing...
Nike would have the most recent of everything ..when advertising
i like money
No these shirts are for next season. and other websites have leaked Barcas two new away shirts also, one orange fading to yellow and the other I think is excatly the same as Australias away shit.
Barcelona - PSG ??? Even if it was, looks awful !!!
Manchester United - Whose grandmother did it ???
Newcastle preview for next season, made by puma was awful, but if this is what Nike is preparing for next season, I'm happy to know the Toon didn't signed a deal with Nike.
That Arsenal strip looks like a Man U training outfit. Shocking from Nike! If I were a Gunner I would be going up the wall over this. Awful.
No-one is going to have the time to fake the above. And on top of that, they match what various other sources have been told the kits will look like; or even, such in these comments, what someone has seen for themselves.
Just because you don't like them does not make them fake. Anyone who's used Photoshop will tell you these aren't fake.
If you can't prove they're fake, then don't call them fake.
But the Man u shirt just looks... awful.
Arsenal - 7
Barcelona - 3
Manchester United - 9
Red. But they also wear navy shirts. So that your theory out the window, sonny jim
Barca kit look like a PSG kit
They have collars like Arsenal's.....this is real, not fake
Barca and UTD kits are ugly!
you r a moron,
the tartan pattern is a tribute to SAF. they are most certainly not making an exact scotland national shirt clone with scottish color way. they incorporated it to their colorway.
this board is funny,
if a shirt is to modern, its not traditional enough. if its traditional, its "boring like every year".
quiet frankly i like a three of the shirts
1 - terrible pic quality, so whoever took it is probably an inside sneak/fake industry leak. poorly lit, blurry, cameraphone image. If we can agree on that, we can move to debate what they are showing us:
2 - The socks argument: it's possible whoever set these mannequins up (and took the pic) made a mistake and they are on the wrong legs. i.e you could swap Arsenal and Man U around. The stripes on the red socks could mach the arsenal shirt, but the reds seem to be different shades, is this due to the lighting/poor camera? We could be here for weeks arguing it without reaching conclusion. Move on.
3 - "Are these official or not?" - well, this happens every season, fake kits get "leaked", real kits get "leaked". I have noticed remarks on here that make sense from people who say common sense stuff like:
a) football kits are made a year or more in advance of public announcement
b) mock-ups of possible kits are often produced to help the decision making process for clubs.
So this pic could fall into the category of "test shot"
however
the fact that three of NIKE's biggest sellers are lined up like this, suggests it's for display purposes and these ARE official/already approved by the clubs and they're being shown to retailers or something, ahead of public advertising.
4 - lots of people on here saying "they ARE real": you're just another Internet opinion sonny, just like me, I don't know you from Adam.
In conclusion, the only thing we DO know for sure is: whether we personally LIKE THEM OR NOT which may be why they've leaked - market research or something.
So do you like?
End of.
It's the same color they used with the '08 3rd Kits with the Currant and Obsidian stripes.
its very simillar to the 98 kit but with the 1 stripe its more of a PSG-kit
Man U is good
barcelona is shit
It's "like" 2012...I thought it just was 2012? And "Space Age"? That was the 1960s wasn't it???
Arsenal kit: ought to be the Man U kit
Barca Kit: someone has got the chelsea kit and painted a blue line on it. The socks are also too light in colour
I swear they swapped the Man u and ARSE-anal socks round...FAIL
But the socks should have been black instead of red, that's our United's tradition after all....
Barca looks line PSG...
Nike is crap!
Barca looks like PSG...
Nike is crap!
Because people have opinions. Stick with us son, we'll show you how "life" works.
The Man U kit isn't too bad (although they wear black socks).
The Arsenal kit is dire. I hope they have it
But red socks and black for Arsenal? Shome mishtake, shurely?
A red nose logo would have been more appropriate...
Man U= OK!
To be honest I hated the barca shirt when I saw it, but when someone wears it, it looks pretty decent. Same for Man U.
Arsenal, I don't know what to say, but the sleeves are horrible, only positive thing I can say is that is doesn't have a red collar.
New barcelona shirts is cool.
I want it.
All the other football shirt sites are days if not weeks infront of FSC.
Getting very bored with this site.
Barcelona: http://www.newkits.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/BarcelonaHomeKit.jpg
United: http://www.footballkitnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Leaked-Manchester-United-Kit-12-13.jpg
anyway, i will wait to buy.
But even still the sleeves on the kit are horrible.
Guys, this is the new 12/13 Chelsea home kit (confirmed):
