Don't know though...
Traditionally it was always the Goalkeepers kit.

I like the look of it, wasn't keen at first but it's growing on me. don't know if i'll buy yet because if sponsors are just stickers then i won't, can't stand the thought of the sponsors peeling off like a few FC shirts i've bought.
I received my shirt in the post yesterday as one of the lucky #v4victory winners and it looks a lot better on tbh and on my shirt both the vees on the shoulder and chest line up no zig zag ,I thought it was in the design seeing mini posing in the kit but its not so some shirts do line up and some must not
I don't know if it helps and how much truth there is in it but I once asked that question of the Club some years ago and was told that it was to do with turnover. At that time we sold around 9,000 home shirts while because of national linkage with a major national sports retail chain I think Leeds sold well in excess of 40,000, so offering alternatives didn't effect the ability to buy in the numbers needed to keep the price at an affordable level.

Haven't changed that much. Thought it looked too bare below the car logos so put in a ghosted hoops design. What do you guys think? I'd buy it!
I did something similar but won't bother posting it as this looks a lot better. Would have been very happy with this kit!
Just feels like ISC don't even bother thinking about the design of the shirt anymore. Just "oh they want a black V on a white shirt with these logos." *5 minutes later* "That'll do."
Also the quality of the shirt itself from ISC are always bang average, for a £50 shirt I only wore a handful of times to games I was shocked when the sponsor on the back of the shirt pealed off. Just not good enough. Compare it to the Queensland shirt I bought last year and the difference in quality is laughable.

Reminds me a bit of an inverted kiwi top. Not sure if I like the new one, the club should do a limited edition shirt with NO sponsors on it, just a black vee and the FC logo.
