All the new kits for the 2014 – 15 premier league season

Southampton

“The stripes are back!” Southampton announced when they launched their new kit. And they’re not messing around: you even get a choice of vertical (home) or horizontal (away) stripes this season.

Stoke City

Stoke saved quite a lot of money on their away kits this season by buying up a load of Arsenal third kits which hadn’t printed properly, turning them inside out, and popping on a new badge. Genius!

The photographer tasked with making the very dull home strip look interesting decided that three exploding chimneys would do the job nicely. And who’s to say he or she was wrong?

Sunderland

One day, Sunderland’s shirt designers will realise that the club’s ‘Black Cats’ nickname gives them a great opportunity to come up with an exotic and exciting shirt. Today is not that day.

Swansea

The Swans otherwise solid shirts are still encumbered by those crackpot advertisers’ logos carrying the strangest and most indecipherable writings since the Dead Sea Scrolls turned up in that cave.

Tottenham

No complaints or comments for the home kit, but are we really the only ones puzzled by the ‘guitar string’ look on that away kit? We await with keen interest a fully-functioning musical version which will let fans play ‘Stairway to Heaven’ on the terraces as Mauricio Pochettino leads them to the title. Or ‘Paint it Black’ when they end up in the bottom half of the table. Either way, really.

West Brom

Full credit to the Baggies for turrning their new kit into a party featuring the winner of a Michael Sheen lookalike contest, Ben Foster in training for a post-football career as a traffic policeman, and a man paranoid about underarm odour.
West Ham

A very nice retro look for the Hammers’ kits this year. I’m sure they had this exact thing back in 1989 or thereabouts. It’s a bit like getting your new car tax disc and being sure that they’ve used the same colour a few years back.
