Pics: Japanese club release puppy-themed kits, what could possibly go wrong?

If these kits were actual dogs, you'd shoot them in the back of the head.

Japanese second division outfit JEF United Ichihara Chiba have decided to mark the ten-year anniversary of their stadium with some truly abysmal gimmick. In honour of their twin club mascots, a pair of Akita puppies called Jeffy and Unity, they are forcing the players to don kits so gaudy they are actually quite impressive, as Todo Sobre Camisetas reports. Somehow we don't see these being big sellers in this part of the world... or even in Japan.

If you haven't already been violently ill or blinded by the outfield kits, feast your eyes on the goalkeepers' strips.
