And the theme of this years Premier League season is...

Bizarre Kits!

It appears that rugged individuality has triumphed over aesthetic common sense.

West Ham shocked some of us with their away kit, which I must admit I rather like. It's very, how shall I put this, blue. But it looks sharp.
Many were not happy with our home kit, but I think it's quite good. Now that there's three claret and blue teams, why not spice things up with a tribute to Umbro's signature 80's and 90's jerseys?


Everton has a horrid, sailor like kit for their home fixtures.


Awful, huh? But not as bad as their away kit...

Just fucking terrible! It's like a nightclub circa 1987 exploded on the pitch.

Chelsea have a strange zipper. But why? It looks like Lance Armstrong might don this top for the next Tour De France.

Remember Newcastle? Sure they got relegated, but they won't let that stop them from looking like a honey bee on some sort of childrens TV show. Here is their new away kit.


I suppose the Wolves don't have a horrid kit, just a bizarre logo reminiscent of an organization belonging to a Bond villain. Blackburn should be careful, lest manager Mick McCarthy decides to release a swarm or open a trap door on the field.

Man U appears to have also opted for the sailor look, complete with a LACE-UP CONTRAPTION!!!!!! Just unbearable.

Their home kit is also a little silly, but definitely not as embarrassing.*

Wigan appears to abandoned last years away kit, but they should reconsider. They had been going with a tried and true strategy: BLINDING YOUR OPPONENTS.



Well there you have it, folks. These oddities really stand out, especially compared with recent seasons. Is it just me, or have the designers lost their minds this year?









*I'm not embarrassed, I hate Man U. Enjoy your stupid lace up away kit.
