Miggys First Goal Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 When did names on the back of shirts become a thing? And why? Surely numbers are sufficient enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why have the pic promos with one colour and the shop stocked with the opposite? Amateur as fuck. Part of the reason I didn’t buy a shirt yesterday, the whole thing was chaos. Cardboard boxes all over the floor, no info about patches, no confidence in the printing either. Wait until it settles down in a month’s time.

Makes sense commercially but can lead to some wacky designs. The Juve range seemingly the case in point in terms of the home, but the third is sleek as fuck. Castore have done some good designs but, providing there was some guarantee of a safeguard re the home shirt, I'd still take an Adidas switch every day of the week. It's the stripes; it's just right.

Kanji Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Why did the club shop throw the black socks on the mannequins?! They know the white socks are official. That’s just bad on their part to force selling something. New PL kit fonts are massive, Jesus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they officially white with black turnovers? Always think socks should catch the eye to help the players so all for this if so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) Bit disappointed with the shorts, as they appear to be very similar (almost identical) to this season shorts, black with quite a large white panel on each side. Had thought they might go with shorts to match the 'retro' style shirt... black with just a couple of thin lines down the side, like the Umbro ones were 1983-87 with that shirt.

Yeah, they said it on that 10 minute video they did for the lettering/numbering. Each club will have their choice of going for straight or curved lettering.

They aren’t, they are black, they fucked up in the promo pics, or changed their mind after the promo picks, similar to last season when the away kit was supposed to be blue shorts, but they changed their mind to gold shorts.
