Yorkie Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Very subtle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Castore have zero design ideas and dont seem to create anything with a unique feel to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 It could deffo be something like that, but looking at the badge it looks fake mock-up. Also Fun88 is still on the front and not whatever sponsor we have next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 (edited) It's fairly smart, I like classic designs like that. If it had the Adidas trefoil logo and a better sponsor I'd think it was amazing tbh. Edited March 26, 2023 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Needs a shadow, a pattern on it or a tidy pin stripe, its a bit un imaginative for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 (edited) Obviously Fun88 won't be our shirt sponsor next season but what are the chances we'll actually be able to get rid of Castore? I seem to remember they signed a pretty lengthy deal. Edited March 26, 2023 by Mazzy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a real shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a real shame. I do wonder if there are plans to attempt to negotiate a buy-out once we have our commercial side up to snuff and could justify the expense. It does seem odd Adidas reps being at the Leicester cup game whilst we still have so long left with our current manufacturer. Obviously Castore are nailed on for next season, but I do wonder if we start to hear things about a potential buy-out during the course of the next 12 months.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 As far as I can tell they just have a logo and no design apart from that. Just buy plain tops and put a GCSE graphics-level logo on it. They must be giving clubs amazing deals, I have to idea why any team would want to work with them otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got multiple Castore tops from both England Cricket and Newcastle obvs, and generally from my experience the quality is great, and design is always subjective but I like most of their stuff. Only issue I have with them is the price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Think i must be in the minority as I think a lot of Castores stuff for us is quite smart. Having said that, I don't buy any of it so can't comment on quality/service etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a real shame. We did buy out a year of Fun88 though didn't we? I don't like the noon.com yellow add on the sleeve either but at least they are paying a lot of money.
