linwood buddie Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 The badge doesn't look to great for something that costs £40.IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaldyOzBud Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 It looks smart, but not as smart as the 1959 replica top I bought last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dastardly77 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Is that a printed badge, if so then that's taking the piss, £40 for a t-shirt with a print on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FS Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 If the last one is anything to go by, I'd suggest getting the size one bigger than you normally get as they are less roomy than modern day strips. Presumably less big fat baisturts around in the auld days..???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pod Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Look like a V-neck tee-shirt out of Top Man with a St.Mirren badge ironed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FS Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 As for the 'expense' it's a bespoke limited production run, made of fine material and presented in an attractive presentation box. Better value than the cheaply produced, mass production effort going for the same price if/when you can get hold of it...???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FS Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Look like a V-neck tee-shirt out of Top Man with a St.Mirren badge ironed on. Have Top Man copied the 1962/63 strip then ? Plagiarising barstewards ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 The retro shirts the Sun gave away a few years back are very smart, stitched on badge and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought a couple of COPA retro shirts in the past and they are always very good quality. I would be fairly certain the badge in this kit will be embroidered on but maybe ask the guys in the shop if you are unsure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbie Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Aye, but does it sook the sweat from yer armpits and leave you smelling lemony fresh like these new fangled kits? I won't entertain it unless it has Sweaty Magnatech Technology on a wee label just above my arse crack.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbie Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 On a serious note though, how come this kit can have the turrets on the badge? Do heraldry laws not apply to retro kits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess it defo didn't apply back then, but who knows how auld Lord Fuddy Duddy interprets the rules nowadays... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminems Old Dear Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Think these laws only really get you for ongoing use..so probs Copa think one run of shirts, by time the heraldry police find out all sold and they say won't do it again..
