Are the colours reversed on the back?

Yes

Lots of 'records' being broken this summer. Just a shame nobody trustworthy is able to verify that.

Was thinking the same thing. Wonder what the ”record” actually refers to as there is no way in hell that they shifted more shirts today than on all previous release days…

Or is it record numbers for a day in this financial period 🥳🤡

Whilst I was there, They had loads of stock behind the counter and people were buying 2/3/4 home shirts. One guy behind me where buying home shirt for himself and 2 full under 11 kits for his boys.

Did anyone have any problems with getting certain letters on kiddie shirts and availability of socks. I’m not going to pile on as it could easily be my inept use of websites but wouldn’t surprise me if they had no stock.

Thought if we were genuinely concerned with going green we'd have moved on from issuing a new suite of shirts every season?

Very good point. 

 

I think these new shirts look cheap quality, and I don't see much resemblance to the title winning shirt.

It's rather buy a retro shirt

The Asics shirts were absolutely top quality, the absolute best we've ever had.

Made in the UK too.

Always loved the Kappa ones myself.

In the Venky era, I suppose.

It’s our small time version of top flight records only starting in 1992.

Wasn't a massive fan of them but there will always be great memories associated with them. The red and black away shirt wat the pick of them for me.

Recently my dad sent me an uhlsport shirt. Not as bad as I remember. Nowhere near the quality of the Asics ones and having the badges in the centre ruined it for me but it was the 90s and they were a European firm.

The neck label pretty much confirms the away shirt design. Nice touch on the inner band with the date. Collar is nicer than on the title shirt - always found it a bit too thick.

I still wear the Uhlsport shirt.

Is it true that even a shirt for a baby/toddler is £48?

I wore mine when watching the Leicester game at the end of last season and it turned out to be a good omen.

I remember before the 98-99 season more than a few supporters as well as pundits referring to us as title contenders. I would look at those kits & think there's no damn way we're winning anything in those. I still get riled when I see one in the stands.🤬

They are the worst pieces of garbage we ever donned.

[Mattyblue]

Yep, £48 for an infant shirt.

Eye watering price for infant kits but appears to be across the board. England kitbon sports direct is £55 and Bradford city (also Macron) is £45. PNE £55.

Bad memories associated with them for sure but some of the garbage from the last 20 years is far worse than the Uhlsport gear. I actually quite like the yellow away shirt with the bar charts on it.

As I said, the badges being in the middle ruined it for me but that was a really really 90s thing to do, especially in Europe and given Uhlsport are German it made sense to somebody at the time. The drop in quality from the Asics kit to them was very apparent. We were also completely shit every time we wore it.

I thought last season's home shirts were gash, some of the worst we've ever had. This season's are mint but only because they're copying the Asics ones from 92.
