The Football Attic Kit Podcast 05 - World Cup 2002

Greetings, football kit design lovers!

We're back once again with another rambling assessment of all that's important in the world of shirts, shorts and socks, and this time our main focus is World Cup 2002.

Did Nike get it right with their 'pointy panel' template? Were Adidas a bit too conservative with their main design? And what the hell was going on with all those mesh layers?!

Answers to these questions and more can be found in this latest podcast, plus there's your chance to vote in another Kit Off poll (details below).

The Football Attic Kit Podcast 04 - Euro 92

After a slightly extended break, we're back again to talk more about football kit design - and we have another special guest!

This time, it's 'Gentleman' John Devlin, creator of True Colours volume 1, True Colours volume 2, the True Colours website, but NOT - and we can't emphasise this enough - NOT Cyndi Lauper's 1986 hit song 'True Colours.' He's good, but he's not that good...

On this podcast, we've got the usual round-up of Kit News, not to mention a review of the kits of Euro 92. As ever, though, we have a Kit Off vote where you can choose your favourite from three related football shirts.

The details on how to register your vote can be found below, meantime, we invite you to listen in to the Football Attic Kit Podcast by subscribing to us on iTunes or downloading our podcast here. Enjoy!
