Yes. This is exactly what teams like Hamilton, Morton, Aberdeen, Dundee Utd have been doing with their kits for years with Nike and Adidas. You're hardly diving down the rabbit hole here and uncovering some sort of new scam. Edited June 30, 2017 by djchapsticks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran teams for 20 years and we had new sets of strips every season , the prices we paid were a fraction of what club supporters were paying for the exact same strip !

Seems it's got a lot of our younger fans in a tizzy right enough. It is a tad amusing that there is ammy teams playing in the exact same kit right enough.

Tommy Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 Only thing I worry about is the ability of our players inside the top, not the top itself. Buy it if you like it, or don't if you don't, but don't moan about it, it is only a football top ffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumbarton_bud Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 Certainly a lot snugger than anything from JD, good grief. It is indeed. Bought a large for myself and it felt almost skin-tight. I let my brother try it on - he's built like a rake and it fit perfectly... Went back and swapped it for a 2XL which is slightly baggy on me. Currently wearing it and it's nice and comfy!!

pozbaird Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 In a previous post I said I'd finished mumping my gums about the kits - and I have, nothing more to say about the designs. A question though? What's the problem in any of us, either for or against the kits having discussions on here about them? I put the question to those in the 'it's laughable, grown men... it's just a strip, who gives a fcuk' camp... clearly they give something of a fcuk, otherwise they wouldn't comment. I don't see the harm in it - any more than discussing the scoreboard when it first arrived, or the Celtic shop sign, or when the dome deflated, or, or... Been a lively discussion IMHO. Nought' wrong with that surely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nought' wrong with that surely? As faraway will tell anyone who is daft enough to pay him any heed, I've been guilty of OTT posts reactions on here. Without a doubt. Point being, when you indulge in such, you need to expect to be called out for it. Forum etiquette and all that. I do find it a bit odd that some folk get so hot under the collar about strip designs (despite the high-tech wicking materials used in modern fitba gear). It makes me chuckle, so I will have a wee, gentle pop. The deal is, though, that I need to accept that it is fair game for anyone to have a pop at me as they choose. Just so long as it doesn't cross a line (yes, I've been guilty of that too) or become grindingly tedious then it doesn't really do any harm, and can add to the fun.

I do realise I've been a right wee Gok Wan drama queen. I take the criticism heading my way square on the chops. I won't apologise for posting about the kits though. My career was in design, and I was lucky enough to get to design four St Mirren strips - so rightly or wrongly, it's a subject that is very interesting to me. My defence rests. M'Lud.
