NUFC kits & merchandise

[Nucasol]

Have raised with Mark Douglas to try and get the pressure cranked on the club around this. Simply not good enough when Fat Mike’s tat shops are happily selling the shirts.

There were the publicised issues with Rangers previously, but have Wolves and Villa fans raised any concerns yet? The shambles might get more coverage if it’s right across the board.

I know Wolves manufacture the replica kits themselves where as our replica come from Castore themselves.

It's something Castore as a large organisation should have planned for regarding demand. With Rangers alone they should have known they'll need to expand operations quickly following last season but they're in the same situation as Newcastle too. Both sets of kits are made distributed by Castore, and the customer service is non existent

New home Jersey came today, have to admit I really like it, love the embroidered badge, far better than the stick on one we've been getting since 2010 when puma took over

Mine didn't come with the noon sponsor on the sleeve, which I have to admit I'm happy about, nothing wrong with it, just feel it looks cleaner without a big yellow square on the sleeve although I appreciate why some peole want it (personal preference)

In terms of sizing, I got last seasons home after the take over, I remember hearing from rangers fans on FB and various forums  etc about the sizing so I went one up from my usual size went for an XL normally always a L (with plenty of room especially in the puma jerseys)

However especially after a few washes etc I felt the XL being a bit tight so went for a XXL this time round, and although it's better  fit, Think even a XXXL might be better ?? have to admit I know they get a lot of stick but this is the 2nd Castore item I've bought and have to admit prefer everything over the puma efforts over the years... 

Might ask Santa for the pre match jersey ?

Would it be too much to ask for blue numbers om the back of shirts instead of red? Find it very annoying.

I don’t think you can have blue numbers can you? PL only allow a certain few

Think you can have white with black details and black, navy, red, and yellow – all of them with white details. Not sure if that’s current though- can only find the refs from 2017.

Email sent. Abysmal from Castore tbh. Can't handle the heat.

Seems ridiculous if not. Black, White and all primary colours should be allowed so as to provide the best contrast on kits (especially striped ones). Red is notoriously difficult to spot at a distance especially when colourblind.

Difficult thing is I imagine it would be a standard blue colour. Like we wouldn’t be able to use the fun88 blue and two types of blue would look shit imo. 
 

didn’t we have gold at one point?

True, but then we have no red on the kit so that also looks shit.

 

I think the Rafa Championship season was gold perhaps?

Is it not to do with being able to read the numbers against stripes? Maybe red is the best option without needing a patch/panel on the back to make the numbers clearer? Maybe Blue wouldn't readable against the stripes? Though I guess some could argue the red isn't always that clear either?

Gonna DHGate the Saudi kit.

 

Noticed a few sellers seem to have two versions, one of which has a white circle when you click on it. 

 

I'm assuming that just going to be badges? 

[gdm]

If it doesn’t have the map on it it’s a bit shit just an obvious fake. Not bad for the price tho

Yeah most sellers don't have the badges and sponsors on etc but they're always there when they arrive. 

[TBG]

I'm on about this:

 

First shirt - No white circle

 

 

Second shirt - White circle appears

 

 

 

I've seen most sellers have it, but it's not clear what the difference between the shirts are.

[Manxst]

Saw the ‘Saudi’ kit referred to as the ‘Third’ shirt in an official email earlier. First time I think that I’ve seen that, as normally it has been the ‘alternate’ shirt. Second shirt incoming soon?

Usually means PL badges etc. I normally go for the one without.

Expect it by Xmas the way the Castore shithouses are going.

I ordered my home shirt with Bruno off Fanatics U.K. - order to delivery took 3 days

[Karjala]

People usually order a size up from DHGate?
