New Arsenal shirt - 125 years

Post by HendrixFreire »

Guys,
here in Brazil, yesterday, there was a Nike event in which they presented some new products they are going to launch next year.

we got an information from a friend who works in Nike that a commemorative shirt for the 125 years is being prepared to be sold, and it's already decided the design of the shirt and etc. We couldn't get any pictures of it, but it's been said that there's something gold around the cannon at the chest and it's going to be used for home matches.

please let me know if i'm late with the informations, cuz there are some speculations about this shirt in internet, but they don't look very real.

and of course, if some of you have a picture :)

This is getting ridiculous, I thought it was supposed to be every 2 years. We've had a stupid amount of shirts over the last few years, I've lost count!

Im still gonna buy it though :oops: :shock:

Generally they have been every 2 seasons since 2000. The exception was the redcurrant highbury kit. I've got no problem with new kits for special occasions, but wouldnt want to turn into chelsea who seem to change the shade of stitching they use, or add a zip and call it a "new kit" each season..

it's a rule where club shirts have to have a minimum of 2 seasons in use with the exception of commemorative or anniversary kits. the way chelsea get round it to maximize sales is to use next seasons for the last game of the season meaning that it would have been used in 2 seasons of football.

Or simply kept to last seasons expaining the delay. I'm sure we would have accepted (not liked) the Charlton kit for a 3rd season.

BTW Please don't reply to my post by quoting otherwise the thread will be locked! Don't even think about laughing!

i wouldn't mind if we had a new home shirt every season, as long as they look good. what's the problem with it? if you don't like or don't want to spend the money every season, then simply don't buy it. simple.

but i must admit that it'll be a shame if the current home shirt only lasted one season. it's a gorgeous looking kit 8)

That's been doing the rounds for a while I think... Is that the one with the proper cannon and the Fly E****** logo in small letters?
