got to say, i love the home kit and the away kit is really nice too but the yellow on the away kit for the sponsor seems a bit of an odd colour. think it should have been white but hey, got to say, i like them
shame that the sponsor is a betting company again though but its a club record deal so its got to be economically a great deal
The way the sponsor is displayed on the home shirt gives it some retro feeling. I like that.
that away kit is fantastic
I hope we've got black socks for Chelsea away
Almost.... but not quite good enough!
Like the home shirt but too much black around the chest.
The away kit may grow on me, I suppose red and black stripes every season would be boring?
I think the black bar on the home kit looks terrible. The away kit is great. Love the understated chequers
Def thought there'd be a signing announcement accompanying the kit release :( However, the home kit is amazing (i like the demon internet kit throw back) and away kit growing on me.

I detest seeing us in blue. Home kit will grow on me but away kit i cant have at all
"daftbet" just about sums it up! And where did that awful dark blue come from, what's wrong with red and black stripes?
Strip I wouldn't buy!
Love the home shirt, but the away reminds me of a recent dark side away one.
Love the home kit (seemingly pin stripe free)
Considering the away kit. I don't like the sponsor being in yellow.
Pleased we have increased our sponsorship deal following promotion
Need to see the home kit with the shorts - but sadly it looks like a rugby league kit to me .
Like the home shirt. I was dreading pinstripes. I will be purchasing the shirt tomorrow.

Home kit is reminiscent of the demon Internet league one promotion kit
Away kit should be black and red but dark blue is OK, similar to Europa league final kit I suppose
Dafabet is a crap sponsor
All in all not terrible but nothing special either
Agreed!
Anyone know if the shirt will be sold with the sleeve sponsor when /if announced?

:plus one:
Too much black on the home shirt & I detest us wearing blue on the away shirt. What will the 3rd shirt be like when we play away to teams who play in blue? I have never entertained us advertising gambling on shirts. Too many people will be encouraged to gamble. This form of advertising should be treated the same as tobacco advertising.
Glad I don´t buy these so called replica shirts. They are nothing like the shirts worn by the players. Made in Asian sweat shops for peanuts & sold for fortunes.
Two things struck me about the new kit apart from it generally being OK and the home shirt having a slightly retro feel:-
1. Ryan wouldn't be modelling it if he wasn't staying
2. Generally we like to announce our signings looking resplendent in their new colours. Look a bit naff if they were in the old kit. We can therefore anticipate the avalanche we've been speculating about.
COYW!
Not for me. Dislike gambling advertising on the top.
why do people hate us playing in blue so much? it cant be as small as something as chelsea play in blue can it?

It's not, nor has it ever been, our colours.
And they wear it too.
Did we not have an all blue away kit on the 60's? Seem to have a picture of Steve Earle wearing it in my head.
but so what...its an away kit and breaks the norm of boring same colours. our colours are white and black surely. i for one am pleased we have a blue kit and it looks great other than the colour of the sponsor
The home kit is great. Love the neck and a big fan of the nod to the late 90's GMB and Demon kits. I wonder if it is an adidas template, or if they've actually designed something for us. Usually we just get given the 'team adidas' stanadard design choice, so nice to see us with something special.

It was our colour long before it was theirs. We just dumped it when we saw sense.

I think when the last blue shirt came out (Europa season) it was proved that way way back we did play in blue for a time. As already mentioned the home shirt is reminiscent of the demon shirt we won promotion in and the away is reminiscent of the Europa final shirt. So a nod to past glories. I like both.
No issues at all with the Home Kit - infact quite nice. The away kit is appalling - blue has nothing whatsoever to do with Fulham's tradition - we should leave blue for others .... & Scotland. Red/Red & Black are FFC's away colours - why on earth depart to this debacle?
really dont get it. its such a minor detail to be so immotive about. red is not our colour either. white and black is
Another betting sponsor? Very disappointed - gambling advertising seems to be everywhere these days. I was hoping we were moving away from that. And dafabet - who are they anyway?!
Aside from the sponsor, I don't mind the home kit, though was never a fan of the thick black bar on the Demon Internet kit. The away kit's very nice though (edit: I thought the away kit was black. Not keen on the blue at all!)
Meh. Sort of looks like our old kit, which I like. But that doesnt mean its a good idea to bring it back. Almost feels sacrilegious using a similiar style of shirt as our old one AND having a woeful betting company as a sponsor. Not saying im right, but thats just how i feel.
Away shirt not sure about. Looks clean, but too much blue for me and that colour is just a big no-no.
Nope, incorrect - red has always been our 3rd colour.
Blue has nothing to do with Fulham (Yes the Europa Run - but it was totally alien to Fulham then). Back in the 1880's there was the light/dark blue halves of Fulham St Andrews - if it replicated that, at least there'd be something of Fulham's history incorporated but as it stands it is just some media boffin's whim.
Dafabet,weren't they the online betting firmed based in Asia,where that match fixing on Indian cricket took place?
Quite like the strip,and at least the sponsorship isn't in a hideous orange or green letters.

Dark blue and light blue vertical stripes, it was the away kit before the red and black stripes.
I hope my daughter can still fit into a child's size without the gambling advert. I don't like the dark blue - didn't when we got to the Europa League final either. Presumably when we play C*****a away, we play in our home kit. But what about Brighton and Huddersfield away - both play in blue and white stripes? Presumably we'll need a 3rd kit (red and black stripes, please).

That was his pyjamas he had on when he got caught with that married woman.😂

I like the home kit. The sponsor being a betting company is pretty grim but I like how it compliments the kit rather than directly sticking out.
By contrast I hate the away kit. Blue? Where did that come from? Can't work out why they chose that colour at all. I love the black away kits.
Ps it isn't a Chelsea related issue. I just don't associate Fulham with blue. I associate us with black and white.

I suppose.. but the home shirt isn't very 60s so don't see their thought process..
Like the away kit bat the sponsor, actually think it works.
Home kit will have to grow on me, think there were better Adidas templates to have used tbh

Yes there is somthing irritating about that black band,too heavy,too high.
I thought I had heard that betting sponsors were not to be allowed on football shirts, seems as thugh I have it wrong.
Not a fan of either - the black bar running across the home shirt looks odd and the away kit to me looks more like a training top
Its almost the same idea as the 1998/99 design sponsored by Demon Internet.
Not a fan of either the new kits but as i wear XXXL I wouldn't be able to get one that would fit.
On another level its strange how rugby teams kits cover bigger sizes unlike football shirts. !!
Would any one know why ??

Is it because of all those big blokes in the scrum?
Wouldnt mind the away shirts with yellow shirts like Sweden kit against germany..
My son informs me that our away kit would appear to be the same as the Universidad de Chile kit (the team he watched and supported whilst in exile in Santiago )
Home strip is acceptable, blue :doh: away kit is a lead balloon and unfortunately wont sell to many units.

Yea, they look identical to me.

can teams play each other with the same colour shorts? I know we played wolves last season but we switched to white shorts to avoid a clash. These shorts were available as part of our away kit so will we switch to blue shorts against Bournemouth/ Watford etc in similar shorts ? Or will that open up avenue for a third kit? That , or will our dark away kit clash too much with Newcastle ?
Home kit is same template as Chicago fire kit.
same template...

I imagine that the sponsor gets a sizeable say in the shirt design so it probably isn't all Fulham's fault. It's rare for any of these modern shirts to look anything other than awful so best not to expect much then won't be disappointed.
I don't know who designs and colour coordinates our kits, but they are most definitely in the wrong vocation.
£55 for a blue away shirt
Good luck selling that
Don't mind the home shirt thought
How will the opposition react to our "Croatian" kit ?
Would prefer a bit of red savings on the home kit.
The second kit UUUUGGGGGHHHHH😠
the thing is with having a dark blue/black away kit this season allows us to have a red & black striped kit for next!

What's to stop them having another blue kit next year? think we would all love a red/black kit.
If you have 3 Fulham fans in a room you normally have 5 different options.
The new kit of the season will not change that.
At this moment have we eleven premiership quality players fit and available and ready to wear this new kit against Palace for the first match of the season against Palace.
After careful consideration and aforethought, and chewing over the fat, followed by an emergency roll call.
No, Non, Nein, Niet, Nee, Not on your Nellie.
