Guess what...the puma logo is embroided on!!!VAVAVOOM 14 wrote:Didn't know that - disgraceful.Kallstrom29 wrote:Kits are too commercial these days. Changing the shirt every season?

Not sure if you've seen some of the bags but the puma logo is BIGGER than the club crest!
My wallet is staying firmly shut but understand that kids are brought up in a different era
Our first year with them and they're already cutting corners, can't even be asked to give us an authentic crest.

Re: Puma to make our kits
I bet on the authentic kit the crest is embroided on.
Bit of a piss take when I noticed the badge was some ironed in plastic shit.
What is the point of the cup kit? Not even on sale lol

Re: Puma to make our kits
It's obviously not a case of not being arsed/cutting corners. I saw the shirt printing being tested months ago and chatted to the guy who is responsible for this. Unfortunately I can't remember exactly what he said about it but given the focus on sports technology with new kits and desperately trying to save a few percent in weight and gain a few percent in moisture wicking etc etc etc it probably doesn't fit with that to have a (relatively) heavy, large crest stitched onto the chest area.VAVAVOOM 14 wrote:Didn't know that - disgraceful.Kallstrom29 wrote:Kits are too commercial these days.

Re: Puma to make our kits
ive always loved it when the crests and logos are actually part of the material as in not stitched or ironed on,like the sampdoria shirts used to be,like a pattern would be on a t shirt on any other top if you catch my driftnorthbank123 wrote:It's obviously not a case of not being arsed/cutting corners.

Re: Puma to make our kits
Have I understood this thread correctly? Are going to have 4 kits (including a cup one) and they will be changed every year? If so that is disgraceful.

Re: Puma to make our kits
I guess that makes sense although whenever I see Messi it looks like he has a shirt that is 5 times too big for him and that doesn't seem to weigh him down!

Re: Puma to make our kits
This whole "Future, Forever, Victorious" mantra is about as arbitrary and cheesy as can be.
Why not just keep "Victoria Concordia Crescit"?
