The brand-new collection of the Lotto Sport Italia home kit for the 2008/2009 season was unveiled.
The Italian sportswear company, acting as Technical Sponsor and Official Supplier until 2013, will provide QPR with the apparel and accessories for matches, training sessions and leisure time, for the First Team through to the Centre of Excellence.
Created by Lotto's Research and Development Centre in close co-operation with QPR, the new team uniforms are the right fusion of designs characterising the Club in the past and the present, integrating the new Club crest.
The First Team kit features the traditional Hoops in reflex blue and white, as required expressly by the Club being its distinctive colours. However, the Hoops have been revised with new graphics enriched with silver details, visible on the front insert of the collar, on the stitching on the sleeve set-in and on the Club logo. This latter component, which is the new and innovative, has been translated into a high definition patch.
The shirt has a fitted shape fit and is made of Poly Tech Stretch, an extremely lightweight, breathable elasticised fabric that ensures maximum comfort and the least amount of fatigue during play.
The shorts come in two interchangeable colours, one in reflex blue and the other in white. As well as the Lotto logos on the side, the team crest stands out in a reduced and more proportioned size than on the shirt. The collection is completed by a proposal of leisure articles for the team: short-sleeved and long-sleeved polo shirts, as well as hooded sweatshirts in line with the streetwear fashion.
The articles are personalised by means of the crest on the back, created in silver with a ginned and antiqued effect. Carbon jersey, the fabric chosen for the polo shirts and sweatshirts, is a cotton treated with a special finishing which makes it particularly soft to the touch and give its a vintage look.

The hoops are fine,tidy as is the coller(though very similar to LCS kits of previous years.).
The sleeves look like Readings to a certain degree.
Nice work Bernie et al
Simply and modern design.I love the bilingual sponsor layout.
I still don\'t like the new badge.
Maybe hooped sleeves were better.
But the most important strenght of this shirt is the hooped back!
Finally a bicolor shirt without a monochromatic back!
noticed how we have hoops and reading dont?
noticed how qpr have had thsis sort of kit longer than reading?
n00b
it was my idea to put queens park rangers on the neck
don\'t forget that :evil:
Best QPR shirt EVER.... was the adidas \'guinness\' kit with the red trim.
Funny, I thought Francis designed it...
Will you be taking credit for the away shirt when they come out, I hear it is... interesting to say the least.
The shirt is nice, like always. You can\'t do much with hoops
still, happy that i\'ve managed to buy last year\'s yersey. Much better shirt than this one imho
The away kit is red and white quarters
We will have a different sponsor for the away kit as well
all will be revealed on funny friday
tune into WATRB for the latest club news
And it is pants.
Lol at Scott and Pete Wrong again sad.
Shame really, because the shirt itself is quite tastefully done apart from those red squares.
And it is pants.
Lol at Scott and Pete Wrong again sad.
End of the day not a bad show from lotto thought it would be shocking so nice surprize to see the hoops not messed with.
that child looks fit for qpr
I know we will have 3 kits next season and one will be green top blue shorts and white socks
forza QPR
Now that is a kit
Proper business
Best kit we have had for years
don\'t be jealous mate
SUPEr HOOPZ
In my opinion, the main target for 2008/2009 is to get promoted into the Premieship and if it takes wearing a blue & white hooped babygrow to do it I don\'t care.
Take away the badges and the sponsorship and what you are left with is a Blue and White Hooped shirt which is Queens Park Rangers F.C. and that is what counts for me. However when you add the badges and sponsorship you add value to the sum of c£20+ million pounds over five years. That is a pretty rich shirt you buy for £39.99. What other club in the Championship has that return and prestige.
QPR have been mismanaged in the past by Directors who really could not care less about the club and turned us into a selling club while amassing debt.
In 2008 the reality is we are now solvent thanks to some business men who have gone with the trend of purchasing a Football Club but with the interest of the club at heart and thanks to them for making this the most exciting season to look forward to and If we are succesful in our campaign then the next step will be to produce an impressive stadium for the loyal supporters to admire and call there own.
Regards to everyone and remember....Little steps are the key to success.
Just how many premiership teams are sponsored by English companies. We are going to be GLOBAL just like our current sponsors, and not just known around West London like our previous sponsors were...
I\'ve a feeling that the Coca Cola patches would have to go over the Lotto patches but then again I\'ve always thought that blue and white hoops with splashes of red is very patriotic.
As for the badge...it\'s growing on me. I remember back in 1983 when the badge was last re-designed (to replace the blue and white hooped shield one) there was a big furore and many people disliked the new one, fast forward some 20 years later and they prefer that one! Some people eh?!
I don\'t like the fact that the ARM colours are different to the Hoop Blue colours.
I agree with Don - that kit with the Guinness by Adidas was a Masterpiece. I miss that kit so much. We had a lot of success with it in the early to mid 80\'s.
And the badge? Looks crap, must\'ve take about 3 minutes to design. Mind you same could be said for the last 2 QPR badges.
part of this sponsership deal is for qpr to help our national team qualify for the 2010 worldcup, were currently in the final qualifying group stage with australia, japan, uzbek, and qatar so we need all the help we can get if we want to finish atleast 3rd!
