Craig 6682 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 24 minutes ago, Tom said: Yeh I was with my mate @JonTheMagwho hasn't posted on here in an awful long time and he was looking to get a retro shirt. They had nothing in the club shop at all & the only ones in back page were genuine retro and cost about £200. He ended up with a home shirt, which is proper smart in fairness. Just seemed strange the only NUFC shirt you could buy was Castore but if I ordered one online they wouldn't deliver it for 7 weeks or something. I really hope the club make some effort on the retro front, the idea of having FUN 88 & Noon in the same shirt doesn't suit me and I'd rather have a shirt without a sponsor on at all! I think the current home shirt is the nearest any supplier has come to replicating this tremendous Adidas Originals effort which was around 12 years or so ago I totally agree with you about FUN88 / Noon. When I was a kid I used to be gutted that the replica Umbro kit wasn't sold with the sponsors logo - either Newcastle Breweries or Greenalls. These days it's the other way - I'd prefer the shirt without them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Toffs had licensing issues but a lot of other mainstream places including the club shop don't seem to have them. It may be the club trying to maximise revenue & releasing official retro shirts rather than selling score draw replicas. https://www.3retro.com/clubs/premier-league/newcastle-united/ These maybe? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 The away shirt is decent but what on Earth is that home shirt? Should have just made a men's version of this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6682 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I'd agree with that. The away shirt is paying homage to the 1990 style kits. Shame they didn't do it with the home one as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13875 Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Should have made an homage to the 98 Red shirt. Late 90s/early 2000s is in, baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7031 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I got one of the NUFC training zip ups for my birthday. £70 I think. It's genuinely the same quality as the £9.99 tracky top I used to wear for my Sunday League team. Full of clicks already. The sooner we bin off Castore the better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have any other Castore stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35095 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 From getting stuff for the kids I think the Castore stuff is probably an improvement but that’s not saying a lot because the Puma gear was terrible quality. I think (fanks, Mike) it was the dearest kit in the league too. Wasn’t it something like £65 for an adult shirt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougle 3338 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 If that stripe had been a tad fatter, or slimmer, that would have looked rather canny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with all national strips, it should be simple. For Germany it should always be plain white with nothing else but the emblem of the DFB. Away shirts should be green. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no, I didn’t mean it was canny as a Germany shirt, just meant it was reasonable as a shirt. It beats the original I think.

Totally agree although I thought both the home and away Germany shirts at Italia 90 were absolutely class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
