Just bought a new Crash helmet. I think Bell Helmets could create a better strip design than Joma!

Here’s my latest Saints themed Helmet....soon as I saw it I thought “that’s a Shoei in ....”

Coat retrieved........

New strips are MUCH better in person. The photos don't really do them justice, home one is an absolute belter and the away one is tremendous too!
 
 

What's the warning tag for? 'Caution- if worn, you will be wearing a top that makes you look like a Germanic leg slapper-minus the feather adorned hat) How the hell can we- and Joma, go wrong with a simple design objective--Black and White stripes, front and back, red numbers and letters--see 2012/13 home top for inspiration

Still moaning about the strip! It has been chosen and will be worn by the team; accept it. I cannot get my head round why grown men can spend so much time and energy on moaning about kit whose sole object is to distinguish us from the opposition.

Never did. I still have a selection hanging in my wardrobe.

Don’t feel so bad now after seeing Livingston with this...

Can you get lettering and numbers printed there and then at the shop?

How much roughly, as was going to get the wee fellas done.

Our present top must be one of the worst ever. Whoever picked that for St Mirren should be ashamed. That is not us. 

To remedy it, bring out a special Third Top to wear in as many games as possible.

That new Top could be a modern replica of the 1959 Cup Winning jersey and could celebrate the 60th Anniversary of that great victory. 

Get it sortit now Gordon and Tony. 

You know I talk sense.

The new strip is poor. I have seen it up close in real life and it’s still v poor. It’s a stupid idea to have a two stripes and a sponsor making it look ridiculous. The away top is shocking and clearly targeted at kids which is fair enough. I’d just like a regular black and white kit like the 2013 one maybe with a collar and made by a decent manufacturer. No harm to Joma but the gear is second  rate compared to Adidas, Nike and Macron. It’s also available at half the price from most online kit stockists. Anyhow I haven’t bought a kit since the 2013 but would if we got a cracker . Please next year off the peg Adidas with our badge and sponsor.

Have a look at what 'off the peg Adidas' provide for Accies. They're equally as bad as Joma.

Macron is the way forward. They produce some cracking kits and actually seem to put a bit of effort into design.

Macron are indeed good but I suspect if we got an Adidas kit again and training gear with the club badge it would put sell anything. What is clear tho is that Joma have been quite poor but as we know it’s only a kit

The one thing that would be good if we managed to strike a deal with Adidas (not off the peg versions) is that they/we would now have the rights to reproduce versuibs of kits from our previous times with Adidas. That would be a tidy bit of business and they'd fly off the shelves. Needs to be the old badge though!

New signing and third strip leaked!

 

[Buffs 1,218]

Unfortunately, this is what I see. Not a fan of the strip.

[Balmullo Bud 1,353]

This was online a while ago and would probably keep most Saints fans happy.

Cannie have a black collar with white cuffs.

Do "cuffs" not have to be, by definition, round the wrist?

No. You can have them around your ankles as well.

If you are feeling adventurous you can even have "cuff up" from ankle to wrist on both sides.

Make sure you trust your friends before agreeing to this though.

I won't make that mistake again.

I thought Faraway had apologised for that.

 

Yes but can any apology really undo the damage?

[Westmarcher 155]

Why do we have a big 'H' on the front of our shirt?   

...... OK ..... I can guess.  🤐

It could be worse...................

Don't agree with this lederhosen comparison. That would only be the case if we wore black shorts. With white shorts it doesn't look anything like lederhosen.

I still think it's a shite strip mind you.

Does that not breach the regulations on advertising dimensions on a strip?

Surely this is a piss take.

They wore it for a friendly at the start of the week but the FA have asked them for a chat about it.

If that passes the regulations how long until Sevco have an Orange sash on their shirts.....

[Eric Arthur Blair 6,769]

It doesn't meet the EFA rules which allows 250cm2.

However, apparently this only applies to competitive games.

Paddy Power are well known for this type of piss-take stunt and I'm sure that, come their first league game, HTFCs sponsor will comply with the rule.
