Above my pay grade that GT, probably something to do with Altree!

Re: New shirts.
They are never going to be to everyone’s tastes, but thought with a new supplier they would do something a bit different and first impressions it looks just like what we had last season with playerlayer, but with a different collar.

Re: New shirts.
The shirts don't have collars. Not pedantic , just fact.
Re: New shirts.
Exactly the devil is in the detail. If there has been a lot of effort put into getting these bespoke then on first glimpse it clearly doesn't show. I thought part of the idea of moving brands was to have items more affordable to everyone. £40 is probably beyond many especially if it isn't going to offer any longevity.Ste Story wrote: ↑Sat Jun 16, 2018 7:13 pmWhat a stupid statement. When you're hoping to sell them to fans who will wear them on holiday, to the gym, to college etc, it has to be somewhat of a fashion accessory. Otherwise why bother bringing new ones out each year?Dalton Bluebird wrote: ↑Sat Jun 16, 2018 5:58 pm It’s a football shirt ffs, not a fashion accessory.
These look cheap and boring. Why bother getting bespoke if they're going to look so plain, might as well get an off the shelf nike or addidas one or sommat.
The way I see it is that It's a bit like our squad for next season, until you have seen it in it's entirety had a proper evaluation of it and seen how it performs then who really knows!!
But as Boylie says, no likey then no buy.

Re: New shirts.
when you are wearing the shirt you are advertising the team I hope the t-shirts are better.

Re: New shirts.
Plus the Sponsor (no offence to sponsors past or present)- that's why I don't buy or wear them.
The new home shirt doesn't look any different to last season's, apart from the lack of a collar - ie dull and boring.

Re: New shirts.
Of course they need to be seen as fashionable, they’re aimed at supporters liking them to make them part with £40. The club are looking to make money off them - if people don’t buy them they don’t make money off them.
The white one is as others have said, very similar to last seasons, the blue one (to me) looks awful. I’ve bought shirts for years but can’t see me buying one of these.

We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Re: New shirts.
What we going to wear when we play the likes of Halifax away ! Isn't there a need for 3rd kit again as we have just gone for a reverse of colour. Most clubs chose a completely different colour scheme for away kits and then there's us .......

Re: New shirts.
Odd isn't it, can't be many other teams who have a blue and white home and away shirt.Lightflood wrote: ↑Sun Jun 17, 2018 5:39 pm What we going to wear when we play the likes of Halifax away !
