It's still amazing that a club as big as Leeds still has zero idea what its club colours are.

Leeds is going for the Tour de France motif

I don’t mind the different treatment of the amber hoops but I just don’t understand why they keep messing with the traditional blue colour.

Awful, Oxen really are the worst. A club the size of Leeds should be all over Adidas or Nike.

Adidas or Nike wouldn’t be interested, the Oxen business model makes sense for a lot of clubs.

Personally Id like to see Umbro back in the RL game

I assume its trying to take inspiration from the colours of the 2007 shirt?

Just doesn't feel very Leeds home kit to me, more of an away shirt.

6/10

Yes the 2007 navy kit was an away shirt.

Reebok is back in the frame, love to see them get more involved.

Didn't SuperDry run a Leeds heritage shirt a few years back? 

The bigger brands would be interested in the better supported clubs in my view.

Ey up! The thread we've all been waiting for! 

I went in the Hull FC shop yesterday and it was basically empty, figured they must be getting ready for the new range.

.... and there in lays the issue. RL fans are a bunch of tight buggers. Want quality you have to pay for it. I'd happily spend £60-£80 on something decent as opposed to £40-£50 on recycled polythene bags.

Oxen were on the Rhinos podcast recently and were insistent that non traditional shirts always sell better...

I think that is quite revealing on their motives though. Its not about brand identity or consistency, its about selling as many items of merch for as much as possible and thats it.
