Will that be in French blue, do you think?

That works for me.

You have to hope Ron has done an amazing deal with Hummel in that he has said lets split shirt sales 50:50 if you produce some decent kits.

Hummel have surpassed themselves although they probably only had to look at the last few years of the Nike kits to see they didn't really have that much to compete against.

If the 3rd kit is as good as the other two, and they have also done some replica kits from years gone by then my credit card is going to get an absolute hammering pretty soon.

Mine too! I already want the first two kits. I’m thinking of going all out for full kits too - also for my nephew

A work of art, we may do **** all on the pitch this season but we will look the bollocks being ****!

Are they going to be the home shorts as well?

Have we seen a photo of them?

Home shorts are Navy with white socks.

Which doesn't make any sense why we'd have 2 kits with dark shorts. Home shorts should be white imo

 

[Westcliff Shrimper]

Both kits are fantastic, and even the training kit looks the business.

Dependent on the third kit, both WS Junior and myself are going for the home shirt. He’ll obviously want the whole kit but I think I’ll get the away shorts as “lounge wear”.

From what I understand the club %s are a lot less than that and we have to sell a certain amount to cover costs before we get anything coming through to us at all.

 

[flangejackrabbit]

Incidentally apologies to @Ayrshire Blue but I think this is the first time in a long time I can remember the actual kits being better than mockups posted on here!

Thats all true but this deal is a lot more beneficial to the club than the previous deal, dont need to sell as many units as we did under the nike deal to meet targets etc

Likely because Hummel have taken over the shop so they can count the retail cut as part of their guarantee.

Nike ran it before thru their just sport arm i believe

??Hummel were always going to nail it. Hoping to see a modernised and reversed colour way Custard Splat as the third shirt ?

On looking further you are right. A good deal all round then.

JustSport ran it, not Nike. They are separate entities. The club had no direct affiliation with Nike as far as I know, aside from buying Nike Teamwear items from the JustSport catalogue just like Sunday League clubs do. I'm not even sure Nike would know that we've been wearing their products for the last 17 years.

Love both shirts, this is really going to test my willpower or my Covid-reduced income...

You can only wear it around the house as you’re all locked uo over there. ?
When I get mine I’ll be out in the street proudly wearing mine. That’s if the post office can deliver before the end of the season. ?

Sad but true. I can wear mine to the supermarket for my one permitted trip outside per day. I don't have the papers to allow further access to the outside world.

Imagine the training wear selection ,don't bear thinking about

True, you’re doing it tough over there.

You can wear your new shirts in all there splendour once the commandant sets you free.
