It looks ****.

I have also noticed when we wear gold socks, they are the same as last seasons, so there is a noticeable difference between the color of the top/socks

****housery to be honest.
So that's why Laurie was booted then? Black socks off Ebay and forgot to colour code the gold/orange /yellow/amber socks ;)

****housery or **** hosiery? Is this why that picture of your Mrs in suspenders turned into one of a bungalow?

South Bank looked worse on TV, with a mixture of old and new shirts...dreadful colour clash ;)

the underlying colour of the new shirt is the same as last seasons. That said I've seen the shirt in the flesh for the first time today, i don't like it at all.

Can just about live with the black socks but the colour of the collar against the rest of the shirt really looks awful imo.

Sorry to buck the trend but I think they look classy.
Same as when Man U play in black, instead of white shorts.

I think this sort of chat should be left in Shanghai on the catwalk.

I don’t really mind what colour socks we wear, but the home shirt is absolutely horrible. If Laurie was the one who signed that off no wonder Fosun booted him out.

Its ironic that when last seasons strip came out we were in uproar about how 'yellow' the shirt looked (me included). Yet, whether it's the success it brought last season, I wish they kept the same colour and just tweaked it slightly, instead of reverting back to the more 'orange' look this new top has.... and keep old gold socks.

I feel our best shirt colour is somewhere between last seasons colour top, and this seasons. But deffo with old gold socks!

I loved last years top, it was quite simple but looked classy.

I've given it time, and I really don't like them. To me it's too different to what we're used to.
Cosmetically we looked better against Torino.

I know it's all about preferences but gold socks am us.

Black socks ay us.
100% agree

I hate everything and anything to do with that club! **** 'em and all who sail in her. Right glad I got that out of my system, now where are the ice cubes...

OOPS, I obviously touched a raw nerve there 'Incognito'. Soz about that!

One of my best mates is a Man U supporter and as he was born AND brought up there, I've forgiven him his huge indiscretion, 're his devotion to the despicable Reds of Manchester!

He also manages to obtain a couple of tickets for the Stretford End, whenever we play them up there.
So can't really complain.

Don't care about the socks tbh, more worrying is the abomination that is the home top this year...

I've got a theory that the home and away socks were swapped around when they realised the gold socks didn't match the home shirt. Think about it - there is no need for the away kit to have gold socks, we will have to wear black socks at Norwich as the gold will clash with their yellow socks and of course can't wear either kit at Watford.

I suggested this to my mates as well. The gold socks really don’t match the home shirt (but still look better than black socks).

I think we both probably have too much time on our hands though.

We will never win the league with black socks.

By the way, is it really beyond us to find some golden socks that match the shirt when we're away to teams with black socks such as Torino?

Have noticed that the colour of the collar and the rings on the black sosk does not match the gold colour of the shirt, is this intentional or a mistake in the procurement/production of the kit manufacture?. Whatever i feel the gold colour should be consistent throughout the kit.

I hate the black socks but it's not a matter of life or death.

I just never liked that club and (living down here in London) the glory-hunting ****ers that follow them! But if you're from Manchester supporting Man U it must be even more annoying. Also, the heat and lack of sleep is making me grumpy!

Should always be gold socks. Black socks look dreadful.

The orange on the kit is also pretty awful. Stick to the gold from last season, Jeff.

Probably an un-popular opinion, but I don’t mind us mixing it up. I’m a fan of the hooped socks, too. Think adidas should try some as their branding could be worked in nicely.

The whole lot is a total duck-up. The black socks on the home kit look dire. Should be gold.
The home kit ain't great but tbf, actually from a distance, looks about the colour gold I think is Wolves' gold. Last season was hideous yellow.
The away kit being black is just nonsensical and brings problems when playing Watford. Should be white for all the obvious reasons.
