Spike Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 As long as ours looks something like this I'd be happy, Hummel kits are quite nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChubStixx Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 I wonder if we'll get endless teasers for our next kit release. Hopefully not, because the last one pretty much annoyed everyone who had an interest in the kit, along with most people who didn't!! Do we know when it's due out? Any rumours about the look of them?

I've been told that it's very nice, and was advised to not bother getting this seasons home shirt about 2 months ago, because the new one is head and shoulders above it!

I would love a yellow and black version, that would seriously make me think about buying a shirt for the first time in a lot of years (I'm too old for replica shirts). Just look at their shirt for next season.....

BRISTOL86 Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 New 'Travel' wear. It really does make you realise just how much better that robin badge looks in isolation. Look at the difference between the stuff with the classy, simple robin outline on it vs the ridiculously oversize 'full' badge It still actually makes me angry that we didn't just make that simplistic robin our full badge. Why are we using two variants anyway? The badge should be the badge, not multiple iterations of it on different gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome To The Jungle Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 The robin looks good alone, however the prices really do kick home the fact that we are customers, there to be fleeced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossi the Robin Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 You can buy exactly the same hoodie for £45 direct from Hummel minus the City badge £20 for a badge bit pricey imo https://hummel.co.uk/products/hmlmove-hoodie-206921-black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSSEL85 Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 Those prices are steep for a polo shirt and hoodies, but just do what I do, don’t buy it. It’s a shame as there is some nice stuff out at present but it prices a lot of people out. I have not bought City merchandise for 10 years but it’s own personal choice I suppose.

This ^ proven quality is available for a similar price if you shop around. Fred Perry have a sale on, MandMDirect are always cheap as well.

Alex_BCFC Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 Generally everything is about 70% overpriced for me (£65 for a hoodie?!). Will wait for sale. If people pay these prices then best of luck to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 Prices will always be OTT. People have a hugely expensive wish list for the new manager and always a big expensive player list but then complain about prices of everything. Football is a business whether you like it or not.

Think we all understand that, but equally people have a limit. Are the manufacturers and club better off selling twice as much stock with a lower margin and lower retail price than they are charging a far higher price and shifting half as much. There is a limit to just how much 'quality' can go in to a hoodie, and with online sales and budget retailers able to knock out an unbranded product for about a third of the price, so whilst I accept that people will pay a premium for City branded, are they going to spend forty quid more for a badge?

People will. It's a never ending debate. Live within one's means, whether that's a £65 hoodie or buying a £45 one and sewing an old badge on yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
