IT is a topic which always seems to split opinion and the launch of the new Kilmarnock strips is apparently no different.
The Premiership club has revealed its home and away kits for the 2025/26 season, with mixed reviews on social media from supporters.

The club says that the home strip is "a woven tribute to the heritage of Ayrshire", but one fan thinks it looks more like a St Johnstone top.
The Hummel strip is in traditional Killie blue with white stripes "infused with the delicate artistry of Ayrshire lace".
The 1906 crest is "to honour the legacy of the team's early years and status as the country's first provincial football club."
Meanwhile, the club says the away kit is a tribute to the strip they wore 30 years ago in the 1995 South Korea Cup.
They were one of eight teams in Seoul playing in a week-long tournament in the summer, which included South Korea, Costa Rica and a Rio XI from Brazil.
It is described as "the club's most unique international moments."
The strip is a half-and-half design featuring a deep blue and bright red with "subtle Hummel chevrons integrated throughout" and red shorts and socks.
And fans were quick to post their views about the new strips.
One fan said: "Absolutely unreal away kit, definitely better but both belters."
A second added: "Great strips. Think I've still got the original half and half from way back!"
Another commented: "Take my money".

But it just shows you cannot please everyone.
Someone else said: "Think for the first time with Hummel, I'm underwhelmed.
"Usual badge would look much better on the home kit, too."
Another added: "I'm not being funny but they are both dreadful."
A third said: "A bit of a let down for me."
