Tottenham Hotspur’s new third kit is really dividing opinion

Hit or miss?

Matt Tate

It’s been a month and half since one of the most exciting Premier League seasons ever finished up, so we reckon most Spurs fans are just about over what happened on the final day.

After chasing eventual champions Leicester for most of the second half of the campaign, Pochettino’s young side ran out of steam at the final hurdle, and an unexpected (some would probably say “Spursy”) 5-1 thrashing from the already relegated, ten-man Newcastle in the last round of fixtures meant that Arsenal could grab second place and old foe St Totteringham did get to make his annual appearance after all.

Still, the upcoming season will see an exciting Spurs team return to the Champions League, and nothing says renewed sense of optimism like a new kit launch.

Tottenham and Under Armour have gone all out and revealed their entire stable of kits in one go: that’s home, away, third kit and the two goalie ones.

And just in case you got distracted by the flashy photography there, here are all five kits again being modelled very sternly by various members of the squad.

We’re massive fans of the home strip. They’ve abandoned the enormous seat-belt strap-like diagonal stripe from last season’s effort and produced a much classier design.

 The blue away shirt is a bit of a looker too.

The third kit, however – traditionally the more adventurous one – has split people down the middle.

Somewhere between yellow and gold with thin vertical stripes running across the front, we’re still as unsure about it as Mousa Dembele’s seemingly is.

Some people approve…

Others – well, don’t.

It will be interesting to see how many of these are on show in the White Hart Lane stands when next season kicks off.
