alanna_zero November 9 2011, 20:57:06 UTC

I don't like them either.

i dont get what anyone was thinking when they designed then approved this shit

I liked the previous one better but this one reminds me of the 2002 kit, which is a good thing.

isummer November 9 2011, 16:00:43 UTC

Whoa! I just noticed those leather-looking pants.

my first impression of the kit was 2002!!!!!!!!!!!
esp how the number is in the center :'D

europeansoul November 9 2011, 15:59:43 UTC

honestly the only thing i like about this kit are the people in it.

who thought shiny shorts were a good idea?

flawless comment, I couldn't agree more.

lady_teazle November 9 2011, 18:01:15 UTC

Precisely. I first saw this nastiness on Tumblr & reeled away in horror. The top is so-so, but the shorts are just criminal. Blech.

charingyu November 10 2011, 02:43:29 UTC

i thought it was just the photo when the kit first came out...
never though it actually sparkling....

*sigh* Still not convinced. The old ones were beyond gorgeous/sexy/majestic/fierce/flawless/etc., thus completely irreplacable in my opinion and this... The ridiculously shiny shorts combined with the unspectacular DFB logo and the disturbing style the numbers and names are written in, makes it simply... I think it's unsightly and *slightly* boring no matter how tightly Poldi wears it.

These precious men deserve so much more - just look at Per looking like a deer in headlights; not amused. At all. But, well... Let's wait and see how they'll do on the pitch on Friday... ;) Maybe these not-so-pretty-jerseys will be our lucky charm...?

I don't mind the lines along the front but they're just not symmetrical.

Non-symmetrical things are unseemly!

wildmopdogs November 9 2011, 20:37:22 UTC

I loved the 2010 kit too

I don't think I'll be getting this jersey :/

mhfromnh November 9 2011, 16:27:27 UTC

shiny shorts will better show off their mannschafts by catching light.

mapmakerscolors November 9 2011, 17:04:31 UTC

oh thank god someone else said what I was thinking hahaha

mhfromnh November 9 2011, 17:38:20 UTC

well, I would think anyone who has seen the Nutcracker would know what shiny-black does to a package.
