Not digging that away kit - and pink is a colour I like
I think we should’ve had a Green kit Fitting with Grenfell - I would’ve applied for that and some special logo on that kit if I was the club plus donate all proceeds etc
A Grenfell green kit crossed my mind too.
For me the ideal set of kits would be: Blue & white hoops, white shorts & socks (obviously...) Dennis the menace with black shorts & socks Green & white hoops with green shorts & socks
Of course we could change the away kits and have some variety but the green & white reflects part of our history & also our links to the community & Grenfell.

Not sure we're associated with green hoops particularly.
We can't have red and black hoops every year. Return to it every few years by all means, and make a thing of doing it. Great marketing concept.
Away kits are not really anything to get to worried about, especiallly these days, it's only for a season. You're not going to like it every time.
As long as we always have blue and white hoops,, that's actually important.
"We can't have red and black hoops every year."
Seriously: why not? If you happen to have an iconic away strip that's instantly recognisable, why do you want to undermine that? Especially when 90% of clubs don't have one. Why do you have to "not like it every time" when you've got something pretty much everybody does. If you start out saying "it's just for a season, it doesn't matter" you're just saying "let's be half-arsed about this." Why, when it's actually easier to stick with one design?
It's like being the best dressed man on the street and saying, 'well, I can't look good all the time, every now and again I'd better wear something cr*p".
Plenty you can do without changing the basic colours, people still love that old "Influence" kit because of the fluorescent stripe.

I wouldn't have too much of an issue with that.
To be fair though, I like the unveiling of the kits each year, and not knowing what you're going to get is part of the fun.
Knowing that it will just be a variation on red and black hoops again could become tedious.
Are all QPR fans committed to the red and black hoops enough to commit to them permanently?
Imagine that sales of a second kit might suffer too if you can get away with last years for home and away? The abiloty of bringing the Dennis hoops back every few years to big fanfare is nice from a marketing perspective too. The idea that they've listened to fans demand for it's return, might get people to put their hand in their pocket?
Especially if you've had a novelty away kit the fans were split over the year before.....

No, it's Barbie Doll Pink and that's all there is to it.
Don't mind something a bit radical but it doesn't really do the Hoops justice does it, might have been better with black hoops or something. (Dunno why they have to mess with Dennis the Menace really, finest away kit ever in the world, space, the universe.)
Still, the home kit is ace and I like the Pink Panther idea.
Actually, Soccer Barbie's kit is better...

I think the away kit is a colour wash of the real shirt, as done above with the green, as the shorts don’t seem to co ordinate with the shirt. However if it is pink then so be it, I like the home shirt.
