I haven’t bought a replica shirt for years, but I’d certainly consider that or at least a training kit/casual wear version. It would also work very well in a home kit version…claret with blue sleeves (adidas stripes would be a different shade of claret on the shoulders), and with blue and white piping around the collar and sleeves…would be a thing of beauty.

Side note: not sure why the mock-up designer used the lion facing the “wrong” way.

I know people get a bit sick of concept kists, but just look at this...










That is an absolute thing of beauty...

 I would definitely buy that!

I’ve been buying branded claret polo shirts and hoodies rather than official Villa merchandise for years now, but if they released a claret polo shirt version of that (without the sponsor) then the only issue they’d have would be supply and demand as it would literally fly off the shelves.

Literally? Hope the club shop upgrades its security then lest a load of replica shirts take flight.

They did a home one too:

Thanks chrisw1. I prefer their black version but I think most of us would be happy with a home kit similar to that.

The star with 1874 beneath it should go where the AVFC is on the back of the shirt in the third pic down IMO.

Yeah, both of those are magic...

Although, a small thing, I would just have the adidas stripes in blue & remove that blue bar across the shoulders...

Small, picky issue, granted, bit still, both of those kits are beautiful.

Even with the shit sponsorship, lol.

I know it's not traditional but I like when we wear claret shorts with the home shirt and socks.

Again very much nit-picking, but wouldn’t the blue shoulder bar being replaced with the same claret as the shirt, and use a different shade of claret for the adidas stripes would work better as per the black design? This would keep the kit traditional full body claret with blue sleeves whilst retaining adidas branding. Gold logos (as per black version) might also work better than the blue on the claret background.

I really like white shirts, light blue shorts and white socks as our away kit.  Think the light blue shirts look good with the home shirt as well.  Have claret shorts and socks as an option as well.

Keep the more 'different' colours and designs for the third kit.

I like the fulham shirt this season.

Would look better in claret & blue. Maybe yellow stripes on the one arm, blue on the other?
