What would the kits look like if it was made by Nike or Adidas

[Deleted member 875]

Just curious to see some examples!

Better than what they do now.

TBH. I've gone right off Adidas. These look shite.....

I don't understand this obsession people seem to have about our kits being made by a 'big-name' manufacturer.
Either way they'd still be made out of the same cheapo materials, and to be fair, I've had no problems with any of the macron kits I've bought...

Exactly the same as all the other guff kits that are made in a sweatshop, but with Nike or Adidas badges on.

Is it me or do the "branding" logos on shirts seem to be getting bigger?

On that Stoke shirt, we have three relatively large logos - for the PL, the sponsor and the manufacturer. It looks terrible. Football players are starting to compete with racing drivers for the title of "tackiest sporting outfit".

Oh for the days when all that was on shirts was a club badge and and a tiny manufactuer's logo (if any)....

Sorry MattB, but as a crappy 1st division team we wouldn't get the latest Adidas water-wings template, we'd get last seasons Stoke kit with the solid red back like Brentford have.

It isn`t just you. the PL one in particular gets bigger and bigger. probably not a problem we will have to contend with for a while...

On that Brentford shirt are the red stripes printed on white fabric or are they separate red and white strips? I have an old AC Milan Adidas shirt I wear in the gym which has "proper" separate stripes (whether that applies to an Adidas template strip for crap teams I don't know).

I haven't seen one so I don't know for certain, but most shirts now (Stoke last season for definite) are red printed on white!

I have an Adidas shirt made for a Swedish team, it lasted 5 years before it started to lose it's shape. The Macron ones generally don't even make it to the end of the January Transfer Window.

I have the Macron shirt from the 2009-10 season. I proably wear it once or twice a week when I go to the gym*. It's still fine. Do you live in yours?

* In my prejudiced opinion, anyone who wears a football shirt other than when (a) engaged in some sporting activity or (b) at a football match or travelling to or from a football match should be shot for crimes against style.

How do you know they aren`t White printed on red fabric???

I'd say I wear footy shirts about as much as I wear other tshirts. And in my prejudiced opinion, anybody turning up to their place of work five days a week with a noose around their neck should be strung up by it.

Totally agree! My macron shirts have had more wear than others and have lasted to the JTW 5 years on!

I'll say it again but some of the a macron shirts have been excellent. So much so that I haven't needed to buy a home shirt for 3 seasons. Best shirt of the lot has been the black with extremely fine red pin stripes. Been washed to death and still looks brand new.

I wear mine as bed attire, Dazzler. I know that must be strange to you that someone would wear something other than leather or rubber to bed, but call me perverted!

I think wearing a Sheffield United shirt for extended periods is what is known in the trade as extreme masochism and something even me and Max Mosley would draw the line at....

Agree with this. I've had most of the shirts we've had under Macron and I haven't had a problem with any of them. All of them are still in perfect condition.
