Juventus eco-friendly kit - something all clubs should pursue?

[Joe Jones]

From BBC Sport:

Juventus have revealed their third-kit design for the 2018-19 season - made entirely from recycled ocean plastic.

Adidas designer Francesca Venturini, who created the dark grey shirt in partnership with Parley for the Oceans, said the jersey has "eco-innovation and longevity at its very heart".

The Serie A champions are the latest high-profile club to support the campaign to cut plastic pollution.

Manchester United and Real Madrid have also worn Parley Ocean Plastic kits.

Do you think this is a good idea? Should Notts County head down this direction in the coming years? Or would it be too expensive for clubs in the lower leagues to implement?

Who knows? I think if Puma made it fair enough to produce it could be done.

I just don't know how having a plastic shirt would feel, if it felt like a normal top I wouldn't mind it myself.

I’m not to sure about this if I’m honest ... if I’m paying top wack for a football top I would like the comfort part .. how it’s made isn’t down to me ... for the environment it would be better but what about us the consumer 

[Wilfordpie]

It's a good scheme to make shoes and other general items out of unwanted plastic, the shirts seems a bit of a fad but if it helps the planet they should at least try.

[Feral Fox]

The feel factor is important, but if it helps the next generation when we've done this to them in the first place, then I'm all for it!

Lovely looking kit as well. I know we're very limited to get the recognition, but I'd buy that as an away top straight away. Looks really classy.

the shirts look normal, well it seems they shin a little but that could be the photo/camera. i think if it can make things cheaper why not? im not sure it will save the sea much mind

[TM1993]

The concept is interesting but that design is just nasty, I could wear a metal sheet and have the same look.

The shirt idea sounds good, why just plastic from the sea? Why not reclaim it from the landfills??

And the shirts look okay.

[CliftonMagpie]

I don't know, I read that plastic is being used to repair roads in the UK.

This seems to be picking up from that and making it sound all exciting by mentioning its reclaimed from the sea.

It reminds me of the Notts training top that Fila released, those felt a little plasticy. I think the kits could work but it would need to be adapted by all the big brands.

The idea is great in my opinion. Not too fussed about a grey kit though.

[allardyces tash]

I am not fussed about the kit either but the idea of using plastic might be a good move forward in football kits.

[upthepies]

The unique way in producing the shirts is a nice method, the kit itself isn't that eye catching.

[BigBill]

I'm not sure I understand the big fuss, seems more of a way to justify the shirt prices which continue to increase.

[AmericanPie]

I like the shirts and the concept could help if the process was used for all the kits they supplied.

[Magic magpie]

Having thought about it’s a good idea for the environment but for me personally I don’t think I would buy it ... all though it would depends on how it feels to be fair.
