October 7, 20196 yr im really struggling not to laugh. my 9 year old lad wanted to buy one before today. lets see what he says when i get in later...
October 7, 20196 yr "The kits have been produced by Wanderers in conjunction with Leeds-based Infinity Apparel who were carefully selected by the club due to their commitment in adhering to stringent ethical, environmental and employment standards including safe working conditions, living wages and ensuring that that no child labour is used in any part of the supply chain." That's going to go down well with some on here....but good on them. And that is way more important than the design. Which to me looks fine apart from the logo - but any logo will more or less be a problem.
October 7, 20196 yr Its a fucking football kit for gods sake They can dress as coco the clown for me as long as they play well
October 7, 20196 yr Makes even worse that our bob standard Hummel kit was a lot nicer that this we have now which has actually be designed by someone 😂
October 7, 20196 yr Looks cheap, I don't buy replica shirts anyway but I can't see this being a popular seller, its crap

People completely overreact about a shirt. It looks fine - sponsor a bit garish but its a football shirt, sponsors always ruin them.
October 7, 20196 yr Well that's shit. How designers get things so wrong I'll never know. Saved myself some cash anyway.

Complete lack of perspective. We had no club a few weeks back. They had two weeks to sort a kit out and chose an ethical supplier so it won't be made by kids being exploited in sweatshops. Some people really, really need to look outside, look up and see the bigger picture in the world. Its fine - its a football shirt. Is it the best we've had? No. Was it ever likely to be in the time? No.

I thought generally teams don't make that much out of kits They have a deal with the supplier but how many they actually sell doesn't generate any extra income Like when say Madrid or Juve bought Ronaldo folk thought they could pay his wages through shirt sales but it doesn't work like that
October 7, 20196 yr Just now, Ratwhite said: Really, how muh do you think we make off this. Hardly Barcelona or Manure are we. A nice kit will sell better than an awful one. Any extra money into the club has to be a bonus.
October 7, 20196 yr Just now, Ratwhite said: Really, how muh do you think we make off this. Hardly Barcelona or Manure are we. Well we're going to make less than we would have if it was half decent looking.
October 7, 20196 yr Surely someone somewhere at the club has seen that and thought 'Hmmmm, maybe not...' Even in the 2 weeks or whatever they've had to produce it, it isn't difficult to make an all right looking kit - this one's a shocker
October 7, 20196 yr Just now, mickbrown said: Well we're going to make less than we would have if it was half decent looking. We're going to make a lot more from this than the last few kits. We lost money on the Macron kit deal. It cost the club!
