True for most... but some of the top tier clubs get more original designs, like that new Chelsea home shirt isn't a template, nor is Bayern or United's new kits, which have a bit more of an original touch. Just hoping Adidas do a better job with us than they did with that new Sunderland shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is nothing will change because fans will lap it up year in, year out regardless anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a clean training top with just the badge and adidas logo, which I'll wear to the gym and some games, plus a retro top, that's about it. Main thing for me is accurate representation of the club, i.e.. this season the home top was all white from the back, so when we played we looked like Leeds from behind. Clubs are now going against the basics just so younger fans HAVE to buy it, due to the old one looking so outdated, like Barca & Juventus' new releases.

Yeah I sometimes prefer our training tops as well. Much cheaper too (albeit it relatively expensive but I get good use out of it when I play anyway).

SirBalon Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 What's for sure is that some major sports brands rip-off the potential customer more than others where originality is concerned. I find Adidas (out of the major ones) tend to defend club traditions a tad more with added originality than brands such as Nike or PUMA for example. Just a personal opinion from personal preferences of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirBalon Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 In my humble opinion we should challenge eachother to an underpants picture showdown. Been thinking about this for quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're too stupid to see that and challenge Adidas then you deserve to be treated like a moron. "Challenge Adidas" ?? Huh? You want Stanley & Dan to set up a rival firm or something? You're posting that picture as if it's something brand new, which is FAR from the truth. Leicester aren't the first, and certainly won't be the last to use a template design for their kits. Even your shitebag club will have done it at some point down the years. They arent defending it, they are just accepting it as part and parcel of the game.

Glad you brought it up though, you mentioned in an earlier post that Carlisle is your local team, is that true? I don't care about them, but they are still shitebag. Yep, Carlisle is my local just like Wigan Athletic is yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're too stupid to see that and challenge Adidas then you deserve to be treated like a moron. Where have I not seen that? Just because I like our kit whilst knowing its a template doesn't make it stupid to not see it I get that it's expensive as fuck and is taken off a template from a pre-existing top. Maybe you're too stupid to see the argument here cos you're fighting a totally different one in your head Why's it taken you so long to realise several club kits (apart from the huge clubs because that's where the real money is) are ripped off a pre-existing top? Why's it suddenly Leicester that has your jimmies rustled? 1 hour ago, Rick said: "Challenge Adidas" ?? Huh? You want Stanley & Dan to set up a rival firm or something?

Administrator Stan Posted May 26, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted May 26, 2019 Tottenham's is nice. Better than this season. Looks like a standard Nike t-shirt though. Not sure how much the cost will be, mind. Will confirm in due course. Hope no-one gets overcharged or ripped off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted May 27, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted May 27, 2019 I honestly don't now what you want me to say or do about our kit it's a rip-off and I'm not buying it. Blame the fans of all clubs who simply have to have the latest gear regardless who allow this ripping off to take place. I'm not daft anyway. If this was Bournemouth or Fulham (clubs not represented on here) this would never have been brought up anyway so it's a total waste of time.
