Actually that new away kit looks like the old Luton one from the late 70's. Only misssing the white vertical stripe.

hmmm... the 3rd kit is prob the best. (or last seasons green kit, lol) the squares should be second, the orange is blackpool, what the heck? But hoops are hoops and the more the better.

If the orange is Blackpool then more hoops is definitely Reading, don't like it

At the risk of repeating myself, each season Lotto dump a Depor kit on us, they've done it again.

Has anybody considered or does anybody know if the hoops go all the way round? Saw Reading on the box and theirs look crap with hoops on the front and a white back. As I recall last season the back of their shirts was blue.

Another observation. When we play the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United away, surely we should play in blue and white hoops. Our third strip will definitely not be a good idea and the rubbish orange shirts do tend to clash a bit with red shirts. To my mind the blue and white would make sense or is there some dictat that says we must not wear them away? The green and white would have overcome any such problems. Who else plays in green in the Premier League?

Hoops all the way around and orange kit is NW,s choice. To be fair NW put us in our traditional hoops away from home more often then any other recent managers. He sais QPR is all about blue and white hoops, so where them.

Ian Taylor said something on Twitter about a photo shoot tomorrow so I'm guessing that will be for the home kit and team photo??

Hes a bit of a superstitous soul our neil. Thats why red kit last year not worn that often. Thought it wasnt lucky. didnt win in it much.
Orange kit seen as lucky and easily identifiable for players.
yes seriously
As for WATRB thing no, As for my take on them a thoroughly devisive organisation.

Well seeing as though our original colours were white and green hoops I think we should keep it.

Shame it's not a long bore shoot instead, two owners and a chairman would suffice as targets. Still, every night I pray for a three pronged lightening bolt to burst forth from the heavans......

How would Lotto "Choose" our strip for us? How would that work? (How did our other two strips get chosen? Does Briatore personally go through strips? Does Gianni? Someone else at the club? A "Loyal" fan?

Lotto design the kits but they work closely with the club to decide which colour scheme to use. So a club official will meet with a Lotto rep and our guy will say we want an orange away kit and a white and red quartered third kit. Lotto will then go away and design them. I think. ;D

theres team sponsor - i.e. gulfair and then theres kit sponsor - i.e. lotto.
and yes i think you're right in regards to process.
flabio says - make it 100% different to last season, and then they mock up designs.

Love the home kit, thinner hoops are what we started with in 1927, like the others. Will probably buy the blue shorts to play 5-a-side in ;D

Lotto have given us a red kit that everyone thought was a copy of Swnidon's, they have given us a black kit, both of these were Depor's kits. Presumably, Lotto and Briatore think that the little englander has no knowledge of Spanish football so they attempt to pass them off as designs for us!!!!! Having said that, bet plenty of Italian sides have the same 2nd/3rd kits as well.

I quite like the old style thinner hoops but there is too much white at the top. I'm not sure if it's typical dodgy 'Lotto styling' or just to accommodate players names on the back but it doesn't quite work for me. Still could be worse, there could be a stupid triangle on the front like the 'quarters' kit. Retro my arse.

Well instead of wasting my money on them, I'm off to Toffs and buy a 1964-74 hooped shirt with "Rodney Marsh" & "10" on the back. Kill three birds with one stone. Get a cool kit, protest in support of Rodney - a REAL QPR legend and avoid giving money to those three pricks running the show at the moment.

A "Loyal" fan? the kit manufacturer would produce the designs and samples for the approval of the ceo/chairman with the commercial manager involved too. but what cpr says, it doesn't seem that lotto had to put to much effort into QPR's kit.
