Who's this warren lad wearing number 5,must mean maguire is going

ITK..... I sign on Friday

 

[Caveblade]

Just returned mine! Sizing does appear to be smaller than Macron, I am normally a L, but it was a tadge snug.

Other than the sizing issue, I love it, great quality and best looking shirt in years.

Can I direct you to the fat bastards getting fit thread

That's a bit shit. If you're big - you get extra stripes. How the fuck is that sort of possible. It's like school children let downs.

EPIC FAIL!

(Let's hope the away kit is a solid colour for the larger fans)

stripes are slimming. The more the fucking merrier

 

[Torrix1889]

Yep, I will be onto the shop in the morning to arrange an exchange of mine and the 2 boys, my Large was a bit "fitted" shall we say and whilst the kids ones were ok, they would have grown out of them in 6 months...

I maybe won't bother if you get extra stripes on the large sizes, training gear with iron on club badges, OH DEAR !
Sounds very much like we have a big name kit supplier giving us cheap and nasty tat at over inflated prices.

Has that not always been the case though? Surely the different sized pieces of material are cut from the same piece of striped fabric. Otherwise the stripe thickness would have to scale with the size of the shirt (which would be expensive). I would have preferred "proper" stripes (red and white fabric rather than red stripes printed on white fabric) but the cost of the shirt would have gone up. To put things in perspective the Toronto FC shirts (Adidas) are a bespoke design but are CAN$119.99 (+13%HST); that's roughly £75!!!.

I wore mine playing football for 2 hours tonight, great fit and really comfortable... Only complaint is my stomach got very hot under that huge sponsor logo!

 

[mekkyblade]

Should have had a 'love shirt, hate sponsor logo' option.

 

[raul]

Has anyone washed one yet???

House!

 

[SherburnBlade]

Son's has been washed twice, no issues so far and all labels have stayed put.

So far...

 

[Sirius]

are we brentford in disguise?

F' ing Brentford, ah yes, I remember now, Brentford nylon was all the rage. and. they had some sort of a Graves Park football side, when we had a decent team. How time changes one's views on life, and teams come up from no where to bite you on the arse.

 

[Sirius]

Is that it, all done and dusted, no more drawings/mock ups, looking at PSG/AEK/Celtic/whoevers kits for another 9 months?

Thank fuck for that.

On the basis that there are only 3 types of people supporting any club (1. Will buy whatever, 2. Won't buy whatever (i.e. ME) or 3. Will buy it if its any good) then it sounds that they've managed to hit 3 pretty well, which is ALL that matters.

Roll on some player signings and something worth actually talking about.

The piss bag brigade bought their kit from Jack Archers, just down the road on the Lane. Once purchased it lasted until you grew out of it. Bugger this changing to 'an away' kit Change, if the shirts clash. How can three kits in one season encourage support. Mums and Dads don't have infinite resources. There are some greedy bastards these days. Back now to my cave. Give the fans a chance.
