The English Premier League home kits for the 2018/19 season ranked: from worst to best

Manchester City v Watford - Premier League
A new season of the English Premier League is set to start in less than two weeks

#16 New Castle United

The Newcastle home kit is almost a replica of their last year's kit. They have continued with the thinner vertical black and white stripes. The only visible change compared to the last year's kit is that the collar and sleeve ends are in white instead of black.

The classic black and white kit is marred by a huge sponsor logo on the front. The sponsor logo ruins the classic kit and the kit would have definitely made it to the top half of the pack without the logo.


#15 Southampton

After sporting a large white panel on the front, the Saints are back with the vertical red and white stripes design. The return of the traditional stripes is a welcome move but black outlines ruin the design to some extent. The two stripes on the right side of the shirt are also tinkered to accommodate the Under Armour logo.

In addition to that, the presence of the huge Virgin media logo does not do any good to the look of the shirt. The blackened collar and sleeves also do not add up to the whole look.


#14 Huddersfield Town

Huddersfield Town has signed up with Umbro for this season. Umbro has done a much better job by replacing the hazy lines with clean lines. The new logo of sponsors, OPE sports, has also undergone improvement compared to last season and the new logo doesn't take away much like last year but it's still not enough. In addition to the new sponsor's logo, the terrier returns to the front of the kit for the first time in nearly 50 years.


#13 Bournemouth

Umbro has once again produced a striking red and black strips for Bournemouth. The last year's kit saw the extension of the black stripes onto the sleeves. This season, Umbro have done away with stripes on the sleeves and have introduced a black sleeve with the retro Umbro red strip at the end.

The Umbro strip on the sleeves is the main drawback of the kit as it definitely doesn't go well with the rest of the kit.
