We had very similar to that black and pink one a few years ago didn’t we?
Weren’t a fan of it then either.

Big fan of the white one though, massively different design to anything we’ve had in ages.

Those photos would be awfully hard to fake, I’m going to go with real. No strong opinion on either one I’m afraid.

I’m saying fake.
Would very much like the away to not be fake mind, as that’s very, very good.

If they're fake someone has gone to a lot of effort as they aren't photoshopped pictures. So someone would have had to come up with designs, which match up perfectly to a couple of the Umbro templates, and then actually produce them. Seems like a lot of effort to troll some Everton fans on the internet.

Not a fan of the blue and white. Looks amateurish to me, denim-like. Not sure how much of a say they get, but I’m surprised sportpesa would ok it too as it makes their logo hard to read due to lack of contrast and distracting background and puts all the focus on the crest (high contrast, background literally frames and points to the crest).
And that angry birds logo is still just so oddly large. Ugh.

God, that's really cack.
I don't know why brands don't pay more attention to their logos on shirts in the first place. Someone will make headway here and be very successful. The worst was the late-season sponsor change a few years ago (was it Betway for West Ham?) that was a huge block of white with letters inside? So amateurish that. Chevrolet is horrendous, however, and their gold bowtie design needs to go anyway. They could rebrand their entire image (from a failed American monstrosity into a forward thinking global car manfacturer) with a rebranded logo (sometime perception is more important than reality), but they're sticking with the ass-ugly gold bowtie. And SportPesa could easily review and approve an alternative (a simple outline around the letters could create some definition?) to their standard brand.
I understand that brand and placement is huge, and granted I'm no designer, but such a failed opportunity, and such terrible designs.
Going against the grain it seems, however on first viewing I really dislike both kits so I personally hope that they're not the actual designs.

West Ham was when their regular sponsor went bust, so they had to stitch over it.
You'd think they could get a few new shirts produced and do the new logo properly, or at least hold a few blank shirts in storage for that eventuality? Mickey Mouse operation that (same at Everton I'm sure).
