Belfast Mags Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Haven't bought a home shirt in quite some times so I've been on the lookout for a retro top and came across this site http://www.camporetro.com/Shop-By-Team/Premier-League/Newcastle-United Has anybody purchased from them and can advise on the quality? Nice site and the quality looks good but who knows. Can't decide which top to go for first, so many nice ones, the 1980 home top is really canny IMO but I'm struggling to go by 1996 tbh Also might be nice to see some good stuff that others have bought and can recommend, I've seen various posts in different threads in my time here so having it all in one thread might be useful. Plus it would be good to find good sources of non official club merchandise as I'm not giving the fat man any of my money but I miss buying club related stuff. I'm basically up for anything pre Ashley in a sad attempt at rolling back the years, sticking my head in the sand and pretending the last 7 years haven't happened Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Are they not just the ones the fat mans been selling off anyway? Without the adidas logo etc? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattypnufc Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Bought the 80s england top from them. I can confirm they are just the 'Score Draw' replicas, but the quality is infinitely better than any 'new-wonga' Newcastle top. They're not exact copies (sponsors etc) but can guarantee you wont be disappointed. They're other range (plain B&W tops - done in different styles) are lovely though. Nice material and a bit different if you just wanted to wear B&W stripes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cort Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Check out http://www.vintagefootballshirts.com/teams/newcastle/119 I just ordered the 97-99 shirt a few days ago. I'll post a few pictures on here once I receive it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I know this much, Anyone paying extortionate money to have Wonga emblazoned across their chest needs shooting with shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzie1980 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I bought the 1976 and 1984 off them recently. Both top notch but the first time I washed the 84 top (40 degress as per label) all the blue faded from the blue star! To their credit, they are going to exchange it, so it future it'll be a quick cold water hand wash! Soo I can't recommend them enough and much better than the one season puma/wonga shambles. http://i60.tinypic.com/zlq0xi.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I know this much, Anyone paying extortionate money to have Wonga emblazoned across their chest needs shooting with shit. There are respectable sponsors and then there's Wonga. Totally fucking tasteless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reasonable considering the score draw retro shirts cost £30. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 They even have the adidas shoulder stripes? The retro kits I've seen don't come with the kit manufacturer logos and stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one was new. However, there are others which are second hand but supposedly in very good condition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
