Football kit aficionados will be aware that these days, Nike have been getting incredibly lazy with their designs and colour schemes.

It feels like they are just creating a set kit template and adapting it for various teams.

And a prime example of them being totally half-arsed with their designs is Northampton Town's new third kit.The League One side's third shirt is essentially the exact same double-decker-esque kit Manchester City wore on occasion last season.

So when the Cobblers unveiled their new orange and purple third kit on Twitter, City couldn't resist replying with a dig.


A brilliant bit of banter from whoever is running City's Twitter account. Here's how the world of social media reacted:

Sort it out Nike!

Are you sick of Nike churning out the same old shite? Do you they need to up their game?

Sound off in the comments.
