West Bromwich Albion: Concept kit designs drew a mixed reaction from some Baggies fans

Plenty of West Brom fans have been reacting to concept designs of three Baggies kits for next season, with a mixture of positive and negative reaction to the shirts that were devised.

Twitter channel @WestBromNews shared a link from Birmingham Live which featured the concept home, away and third kits for 2020/21 after the newspaper sought out Request A Kit to produce mock-ups of possible kit designs for the Baggies. Puma and Ideal Boilers are being retained as the kit suppliers and main shirt sponsors respectively.

The home shirt devised by Request A Kit keeps the narrow navy and white stripes on the front, with the reintroduction of all-white sleeves. The away kit is mainly yellow with horizontal blue pinstripes, a deviation from the time-honoured yellow and green colour scheme. The third kit is a dark charcoal colour with a subtle melange pattern. Interestingly, all three shirt designs came with a Premier League sleeve badge, a nod to Slaven Bilic’s team being on track to return to the top flight before the season was halted.

The shirt designs created by Request A Kit drew mixed responses from these West Brom supporters:

Home kits nice, I’d have yellow and green again as our away and that yellow kit as the third

I’m very much a yellow and green fan but I have to admit that yellow top is beautiful! Also, good to see the navy blue stripe is in the middle again. Never looks right to me when the middle stripe is white.

Home and third are very nice . Away isn’t nice

No, no and no ! ☹️

Hate the narrow stripes, BROAD stripes please…. Green and yellow away kit…. Third kit is a waste of time.
