Roar fans have spoken their minds after their new Umbro threads were released for next season.
The Brisbane Roar's fans have spoken, with a mixture of different reactions to their new look Umbro kits for the 2017/18 A-League season.
The Queensland club's new look home jersey is dominated by the iconic Roar orange and, for a first, complimented by white sleeves and shorts, a change from the usual orange and black colours.
It is the home jersey that has received the most mixed feedback.
Lost all club identity. I thought our club colours were orange/black. Why add in white. The white looks terrible. No consistency

Love. Big fan. Good work.

TBH not a fan of orange and white. Give me a call when you get back in black

Might take some time to grow on me, not really feeling it yet.

No sponsor?

The Roar's away jersey ditches the regular white strip, installing a clean navy blue to Suncorp Stadium for the first time. The shoulder area of the shirts have a splash of the orange to keep consitency, but is dominated by a navy blue filling the shirt, shorts and socks.
Roar fans have fallen in love with the away jersey for season 2017/18.
Fantastic stuff! Love the away and third, home will grow. Like the detail/pattern on the front of the third

Best kits in the league so far...coming from a Sydney fan

Finally, the Roar's all new third jersey goes deep into the roots of the state, it's a classy maroon. The shirt is a lighter shade, before progressing to a matching darker maroon on the shorts and socks.
We think that the Brisbane fans are happy with this inclusion by Umbro.
Terrible main kit looks awful. Maroon is good!

maroon is class. home, not so much.

Really like the 3rd kit. Very ASRoma. Only concern is the dark kit with our hot summers. Looks great but feel for the players.

Interestingly, all three jerseys have been released without a 'front-of-shirt sponsor' which has left fans confused as to whether there will be one in readiness for the A-League's kick off in October.
