With a new season of Veikkausliiga beginning, it's usually a time to marvel at some of the kits that will be on display - with the obligatory large number of sponsors. I didn't do a kit blog at the start of last season, which is just as well as some of the kits remain the same. I've included last season's kits by way of a comparison... Most of the photos are official Veikkausliiga profiles.
Most of the clubs have a webshop, the details of which are on a tab at the top of the page.
SJK
The champions will play in the same Adidas kit as last season, as modelled by new signing Abdoulaye Méïté. Special mention though to the jackets worn by the coaching staff, classic Adidas Originals gear with the trefoil logo. Magnificent.
RoPS
Last year's silver medallists are again decked out in Puma, this time the same template as the current Arsenal home jersey.

HJK
Looking to regain their crown, the club have made several signings but keep the same shirt as last season. Perhaps they still have some remaining from last year that they didn't sell in Japan?
Inter Turku
Inter remain with Nike jerseys, but they've moved onto a more subdued template. Less identifiable, but far more attractive.

Same Umbro jersey as last year, but with... A bigger main sponsor? Was there a bit too much black left? I do hope Halton have paid more for the privilege.

Same Puma kit as last season... Same official profile photos too!
HIFK
Very little change other than an updated template - nice to see Kappa still doing kits, shame about the lack of shoulder trim like the Man City kit of the 90s.

A change in template, little else. A shame, I loved the 2015 design but it's not a bad replacement.

Same kit as last season (the 2015 official photographs were of the previous kit). All that's missing is a copy of today's newspaper being held by the obvious hostage.
VPS
Same Puma kit as last season, clearly found in a basement bin somewhere in Vaasa.
PS Kemi
It's putting it mildly to say that I'm heartbroken. This is the biggest shame of all. One of last year's finest kits, a custom made Adidas abstract effort (underneath the sponsors) has been replaced by a budget plain red Stanno rag I wouldn't clean my car with. Such a shame.

Shefki's boys are following the Inter Turku model, replacing red and black stripes with a low-key number. Nice. I've got one already...

PS Kemi kohtaa KuPS:n lauantai PS Kemi Stadiumilla pelattavassa ottelussa. Edellisessä kohtaamisessa KuPS voitti ottelun 2-0. Onkohan Åhman joukkue valmistellut seuraavaan otteluun yllätyksen? Näiden kahden joukkueen edellisten tulosten perusteella ennustan, että KuPS selviytyy tästä tapaamisesta hyvin ja voittaa pelin. On mielenkiintoista nähdä, tekeekö Billy Ions maalin tässä pelissä, sillä hänellä on hyvä keskiarvo tehdyissä maaleissa per ottelu.
