Re: New Kits
The home is absolutely dreadful and the away is a brilliant idea completely botched - but I really like this one.
Huge hammers are different and very uniquely 'us' - and third shirts are for giving licence to do something different to normal. The sublimated hammers are great too. And the shorts are a really complimentary colour to the shirt which has the right flashes. One of our better overall kits in recent years, I think.
As I said, the home and away were completely driven by the Club but I believe the third was Umbro's design. Which is why it's better.

Re: New Kits
The way I look at it is we often ask for something different and unique to be done with kits, especially with 3rd kits. When at other times we also prefer for more traditional looking West Ham shirts which last seasons Home kit nailed. For me this 3rd kit ticks all the right boxes as it's definitely unique, unusual, stylish, easily West Ham recognisable with quirky details. It is out there and full on but I actually like that about it.

But yeah, the visual identity is definitely shifting away from the London badge, thank god.never to be seen because they never existed.Bit like your sense of humour and the Eyetie army in WW2
sense of humour? i've got a joke for you:

The plan is to use them more on our kits as we transition away from the current badge.
are those the same voices in your head that were saying Kappa?

I purchased an unsponsored one but it seems there's not any on display now?
