'Like a bus seat back in the day' - new Wales kit leaves fans divided

Some are claiming the new home football shirt is the worst in Wales' history.

'Like a bus seat back in the day' - new Wales kit leaves fans divided

The Football Association of Wales (FAW) has unveiled its new home kit for Wales, sparking a divide among football fans. The red shirt, described by some as resembling bus seats, was crafted in collaboration with sportswear brand Sudu, marking the end of a 13-year partnership with Adidas. The association emphasized the kit's inspiration from Welsh double cloth weaving tradition and the nation's DNA.

The adult shirt, priced at £90, comes with shorts and socks totaling £136, while a replica costs £70. Critics, however, have harshly criticized the design, with one fan comparing it to an antiquated bus seat. Despite the controversy, the FAW remains confident in the creative process behind the kit and its ability to evoke Welsh pride.
