October 2022 - Worst Kit of the Month - Results
October 2022 brought us much fewer kits than previous months, but there still have been some bad releases. Which was the worst kit of the month?
October 2022 - Worst Kit of The Month
Our selection for the Worst Kit of October 2022 includes nine shirts. Many look bad already at first glance (pink LASK, Albirex Niigata 2023 away, volt/navy Melbourne Victory), while others are bad because they are too standard and/or based on old templates (Al Ahly, Olympiakos, Barrow).
The possibly most controversial shirt released in October 2022 is Japan's special-edition kit. We decided to include the pink/green shirt both in the selection of the Best & Worst Kits of October 2022.
Voting for the Worst Kit of October 2022 will end Sunday, November 6, 2022.
