Kits 2014/2015

[BRSTLDRGN]

Yeah, that is horrendous.

I was looking forward to the kit, thought it could look pretty cool (I'm sure a team, possible castleford tigers? have had a bright orange with grey tiger stripes on, in the past? looked mint) but that's disgusting.

Heres the question. Is the Leicester abomination of a kit worse than the well known "worst kit of a team called the Tigers"?

Different sport but

Holy lol... that's awful.

I think the "orange because they're Tigers" thing is an erroneous assumption on my part... I think it's because of their new sponsorship by Stihl.

Would have been a good foundation.

I did say that the players hated it.

Right before that image.

Loamanu looks alright in it with his arms crossed. Better than I thought it would be in the earlier mock up.

Considering he is in-between to locks he looks a unit, cant wait to see him play. Hopefully at 13 or wing.

Also in answer to the twitter question it is because of the new sponsors

Also

Dislike the shorts.

TBF it's not hard to look like a unit inbetween two lanky Larries.

Looks much better than the mock-up, my initial dissapointment has mostly gone away... although I still think orange and black stripes would have been better (the Cardiff strip with orange instead of blue comes to mind now).
It's definitely a Stihl theme (orange with black chainsaw-blade patterns).

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

Hideous

Suppose any athletic looking forward is a beanpole to you bath fans and your obese fatty forwards (except Louw).

Honestly don't mind it, better than the bib stuff.

I preferred the Black euro kit, and then to have added orange onto it though.

Gotta agree though... looks better than the last two.

fkn Hell. Croft went from looking like your cool older brother to looking like your dead serious uncle in like 2.5 years.

Manu looks to have put some more muscle on.

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

Stihl Chainsaws!!!!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Tigers away kit looks far better in 'person' than in the mock ups.
