Leaked: HSV 16-17 Kits to Split Fans' Opinions
In May 2016, Adidas will reveal the all-new Hamburger SV 2016-2017 Kits. And while the German club will carry over their light blue and white away jersey and receive a classic home kit, the new Hamburger SV 16-17 Away Kit is sure to cause debate amongst supporters.

This image shows the colors of the new Hamburger SV 2016-17 Home Shirt, which is again made by Adidas.
While last season's HSV home kit combined the traditional main color white with blue applications and red details, the new Hamburger SV 2016-17 Home Kit will return to red as secondary color. And whereas many previous HSV Home Kits often combined the respective secondary color either with blue or red as third color, the new HSV 2016-17 Home Kit is expected to feature blue details within the collar only. On the back under the collar will be the lettering "Nur der HSV".
In fact, the new Hamburger SV 2016-17 Home Shirt follows a similar approach as the HSV 125-years anniversary it, which just featured the colors white and red. HSV's 16-17 Home Kit will also use the new positioning of the Three Stripes on the side of the shirt, which is used for almost all Adidas Euro 2016 Kits.
Red shorts with white applications and white socks will complete the new HSV Strip.

Drawing inspiration from the infamous pink Hamburger SV 1976-77 Away Kit, the new HSV 16-17 Away Jersey will boast the bold main color 'Shock Pink'. Adidas will combine the extraordinary main color with white applications. The original kit was combined with a dark blue collar and dark blue Three Stripes.
The shorts and socks of the new HSV 16-17 Away Kit will be dark navy ('Night Sky'), similar to the pink uniform released almost 40 years ago.
Hamburg's 15-16 Third Kit will be carried over.
