This is the new Sheffield United home kit 2017/18, newly promoted SUFC’s new home strip for the upcoming Championship season. The Blades comfortably won League One in 2016/17, scoring 100 points (and 92 goals) from 46 games to secure the title and automatic promotion to the Championship. Made by Adidas, the new SUFC shirt was officially unveiled on June 12, 2017 by the club.
United had OTA Alpharooms on the front of their jerseys last season, and with the acquisition of the latter in 2016 by Truly Holdings, sister company Teletext Holidays now takes over as principal shirt sponsors.
The new shirt will officially go on sale later this week.
I cannot make my mind up on this one. As a modern kit it has it’s merits but I think a bit too much black on the shirt.
Decent effort.
Looking good me thinks.
Liking the 70s-style stripes to go with our 70s-style sponsor 😀
Think I would have preferred red Adidas stripes though.
I like this. Good job out of Adidas. It could have been identical to the Sunderland kit, or vice versa, but they made the two completely different.
Teletext (the service) shut down in 2010, which was the last time Sheffield United were in the Championship.
Is this a “pretend the last 7 years never happened” deal?
Nice. Different take on the stripey shirt, using black.
Too much black for me, especially those black sleeves which are just strange.
But still nicer than Sunderland’s new shirt!
