wfmk2 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Just received the scuba hoodie. Very poor stitching and the Castore NEWCASTLE logo isn't even centred. It is also about a two sizes bigger fit than last season's home shirt. The receipt advises to return to shop.nufc.com/pages/returns-and-refunds/ Niall and Biffa won't be happy.

wfmk2 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 The hoodie looks mint on the website, but the real thing feels like a snidey knock off. Really disappointed. I ordered mine shortly after the came back into stock after the launch batch sold out. Maybe they drop shipped a rush job from overseas with no quality controls. Made in Turkey.

Kid Icarus Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) The crunch their warehouse must have went through that lead to that level of quality must have been a killer. It's very possible that the DHGate versions will be better quality. Edited July 8, 2022 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) No complaints at all with mine and fits great. Shit that others have issues mind. 5 things bought now and not a problem with any of them guess I got lucky. Think castore have bit of more than they can chew adding more clubs and are rushing things. the demand for rangers and Newcastle alone will be massive Edited July 8, 2022 by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE27 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Can vouch that stuff I've had has been absolutely fine like. Overall castores operation just isn't it, unfortunately. Club would probably be best placed trying to get out of this if possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just being honest not had a problem with anything so far. First issue I have I’ll be sure to let you know.

RS Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Horrendous when there’s no difference in quality between the original and snides. I assume it’s the same factory knocking them out. Reeks of a sports direct connection regardless of the denials. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Got one of those Castore Newcastle Scuba Hoodies 6 months or so ago and it's top notch tbh! No complaints from me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I mean, I've got Adidas NHL snides off DHgate that are pretty damn close so they're getting better. The rep market is top notch if you avoid the low hanging fruit and do some research. The thing with the big boys is generally their QC is a lot better. Castore has bitten off way more than they can chew with some of the club's they've got in with for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Just strikes me as a complete style over substance company. Like something has been made to look like a decent sports brand but nothing behind it. Even the logo looks like it’s been knocked up in A-level graphic design. No idea how long they’ve actually been around TBF. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Does anyone know why the club shop is being so weird with personalisation? I literally want to throw money at them but they make it so hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
