I've mentioned further up this thread about releasing kits earlier to allow people to wear them on holiday from June onwards.
I'm just back from the Algarve and other than the PL clubs our kits and leisurewear was one of the most popular that I spotted in various areas along the coast. It was great to see so many wearing them with pride.
People want to spend their money, why are we pissing about waiting until we wear it in Spain to release them?

After a promotion season then the town, holiday destinations, festivals etc would've been full of new County shirts.

I'm not keen on that Birmingham one. Peterborough's away is still head and shoulders above anything else I've seen so far. Same here plus the palace one thats been mentioned also.

We have this every year and it is odd that we leave it so long. I remember when the players would come out for a lap of honour at the end of the season in the following season’s kit (that may have only happened once but it did happen at least once).

Quite like the kit and launch video from Grimsby agree with the kit. Grimsby also have some decent jackets I've seen from umbro too.

In recent (20 years) memory, it only happened once, I think. End of 05/06 after the Carlisle game. The players came back out with new shirts on, although they were only prototypes and differed from the ones we actually wore the following season. They had players names and numbers on but different crest, no white band around the Scandia and a few other differences. I’ve got the ones Dicko and Bramble wore.

Probably biased but that's a fine looking away shirt for National League South's St Albans City.

Because Nik, like me, is a big fan of the band who sponsor St Albans and the singer of which is in the photo he shared. It’s why I’m certain if we were ever able to reach an agreement with Robbie’s and Iron Maiden to get Trooper on an away shirt it would sell tens of thousands potentially worldwide. Fans of bands will buy all sorts. I personally know several non football fans who have bought St Albans shirts since Enter Shikari started sponsoring them and I’ve been tempted to pick one up myself.

I mean I’ve been able to have another look at it and that it one is basically just Enter Shikari merchandise, made by Hummel and with the St Albans badge tacked on 😂 And I love it. Might have to bite the bullet and get my first St Albans shirt. They’re already the team I start with in football manager with Jim or Challinor in charge.

Ed Sheeran sponsoring Ipswich is a classic example of this too.
