Craig 6682 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Club should be breaking their arse to get a deal with Umbro for 2013/14 IMO.Hate Puma kits with a passion and I'm no fan of Nike either. Nike bought Umbro in 2008. At the same time Umbro started to make the retro style kits (England, Man City) everyone loves, not too disimilair to Nike shirts (Brazil, New Zealand, Arsenal) Before Nike After Nike You couldn't possibly have picked a worse pre-Nike example like.. My opinions of Umbro stretch back to when we were supplied by them previously. They supplied us for 13 years I think (1980-1993), provided 5 different home kits in that time and there's not one I didn't love the design off. Adidas however, who supplied us for 15 years, I can only think of 3 (possibly 4) designs that I liked out of 8 that they provided. Appreciate the link you make between Nike & Umbro from both a style and ownership POV but there is still a difference IMO. Maybe they are the influence behind Umbro's awesome efforts of late, but I still prefer what's coming out under that brand rather than their flagship. Puma is just fucking awful and as for Reebok..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesD 0 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Unless you're one of Umbro's selected teams to get a properly designed kit (Man City, England), then you just get the standard copy and paste with slight amendments version like us and Blackburn. That said, the standard kit is canny enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as it pains me to admit it, the mackems shirt is actually quite a nice design, cheapened by having Tombola plastered on the front of it but as far as the template goes I quite like it.

rabit71 0 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) craig. no fan of nike and yet you want an umbro kit? as nobby said, theyre practically the same thing (granted they have their own divisions etc) but its like saying you're no fan of general motors but quite like vauxhall (not that anyone would ever say that) nike also own converse as it happens only downside to nike, in my eyes, is that they sponsor perch love to be sponsored by nike Edited March 14, 2011 by rabit71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleeToonFan 1 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Am I the only person that thinks Puma is the best kit make? The away and third shirts this year were brilliant. Next year, sort the home shirt out, go a bit more adventurous with a SINGLE away kit, and we're onto a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano 0 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 They are NEVER gonna drop the 3rd kit imo. Its another certain money spinner. Even if they do only sell 10,000 shirts @ £40 a pop thats still nearly half a mil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleeToonFan 1 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Well, to be fair I have the third shirt (but only because my away shirt had Carroll on the back ) . But you never actually see anyone wearing it do you? Surely they don't actually sell that many third shirts? We've worn it once (against Wolves away) as far as I can remember too.

Deano 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Iv no idea how many they sell...i have it. Is the best of the 3 imo. Fact is having it and selling even a small number is better than not having it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlythSpartan 0 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Away and 3rd shirts are always something of a lottery. I think the last non-black and white shirt that made the club a ton of cash would be the 1995-6 hooped throwback shirt. There have been some nice designs since but nothing that eye catching or classy, a difficult task with polyester! I think this years offerings are quite sensible, nice plain designs in popular colours. For me the biggest issue with the home kit is (not only the awful plastic sponsor patch) but the big back panel for the mumbers. Why don't we go back to red numbers on a retro style shirt next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like the panelling across the chest on the away/3rd kits, and not a fan of the 'cupcake topper' badge on any of the shirts. I just want something simple, classy, slightly retro and as said above with a small white patch and red numbers on the back (like in the early 90's). Is that too much to ask?

CleeToonFan 1 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Surely the old European black and light blue shirt sold well? That shirt was brilliant! A colour scheme they should go back to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
