Apologies if it’s already been discussed, but generally do Adidas striped shirts have stripes on the back of their template kits? Never been keen on the red panel…

The template kit (below) trailed on here doesn't.

However, I think I saw it said somewhere that your deal with Adidas would result in bespoke kits. My experience of Pompey's 'bespoke' deal with Nike is that we get template kits but the odd bespoke colour scheme/combo that isn't available through their catalogues. Presumably they could do something similar with striped backs that are based on the template above?

I'm on the opposite side to this, striped back with black numbers look like we have plumbers playing for us
I think I prefer the striped back if you're a supporter wearing a shirt with no name/number but agree, it doesn't look great on the players.

Yeah it looks strange if you have a number and name on the back. A primary purpose of the kit is to be easily identifiable and readable. That trumps some peoples aesthetic opinion.
