Olé Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 1 minute ago, Just8 said: It doesn't look amazing by your photos but embroidery does have limitations... You are correct but look back at that photo and remind yourself that embroidery has been able to do tiny 90 degree angles in every millimetre of that design. Clearly the issue isn't the embroidery it is the image the club sent them. Literally this is the most basic prep for producing gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't. What I have received today in the "pre order" send out, would be laughed out of a cheap knock off market stall. Exactly what I saw in the photos - a tatty print out with zero alignment relative to a logo that the design agency published. Genuinely amazed our club thinks this is okay based on what the design agency gave them. Yeah, the edge around the white circle looks naff to say the least.

Agard Days Night Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 2 hours ago, Olé said: Have this. Speaking with some experience, the club has actually sent a low res image from an email to the printers, that renders when it is printed like it is for teletext. I mean this is literally schoolboy stuff and the club has taken £50 a pop for this shite. If you look at the original logo launch, it was perfectly aligned and executed. This is not about that badge, it is about the comic sans man at the club who is in charge and can't tell that this is a horrifically amateur operation for the club he is supposed to represent. Shambles. This is so amateur it’s painful. Have you let Jon Boy know about this? Somebody needs to put their hands up and admit a mistake here. Daylight robbery for £50 with quality like that.

As well as the resolution and the quality of the white and black rings which to my eyes are misaligned and on yours too (wider left than right) the thing that really gets to my OCD is the "Bristol City" which is off - small and not even aligned in the thick red band. Sorry to everyone for going on about this but I just about warmed to the new badge and this really spoils it - the rebrand has been handled well in all other respects so I hate to see a good idea and opportunity let down by simply being poorly executed.

Also the red tracksuit tops are an odd material I reckon it would be itchy on the inside when worn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You saw it coming but couldn’t believe such a basic mistake would be made. I was waiting on the outcome before buying and I wouldn’t want to wear something that looks like it’s from the Mongkok market It’s very poor. Amateur execution at top prices. Surely when image was received the contractor raises concerns about the image size. Surely when the samples came back someone must have raised concerns about the image quality These should never have gone out. I hope they do a recall.

sticks 1969 Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 I know they are a bigger club with a much larger fan base , but had a look at Leeds online shop and the range is huge with some quite nice clobber for all occasions we had one t shirt and a polo top so far plus replica kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 Was going to start a new thread on the refurbished store, but this seems as good a place... Exactly the same as the old store, with what - on inspection - seems to be poor quality over priced tat. The polo shirts appear to be overpriced by fifteen or twenty quid, and the t-shirts overpriced by a good fifteen quid. I get that with discount we pay a bit less, but even with that applied, it's still over priced. As you were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that with discount we pay a bit less, but even with that applied, it's still over priced. As you were. I agree. I went in there early on Saturday and there really was such little to inspire me. The shirt looks nice on the players but personally I don’t like the collar (button) or the circular badge. So I went to look for a t-shirt, very overpriced I thought, even by our shop’s standards. I read lots on here from people hoping to see a decent range of casual wear, I think many must be shocked and disappointed. Granted not all the range is in stock yet, but I’m not filled with confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
