thunderball Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Bought my daughter the 19/20 kids official shirt for Christmas (she is 7 y.o.) £68 incl delivery. It arrived today and it is shocking value, I feel properly ripped off. I know I have the choice but it will be the last time. If it was half the price I would probably buy my younger boys the kit too, but at that price it’s pulling your trousers down big time. Very sad but charging that level for children has lost my business for years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Still wish this ended up being our kit. Hate our current one. Maybe next season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to buy it in Bergen and lets just say the selection of Villa shirts never have been the best in Norway. Was 10 years old or something and about 2 feet tall, ended up with a XL size shirt, and to this day the shirt is still too big for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is shocking value mate and for £68, it ought to be the full kit for a 7 year old. My lad is also 7 and thankfully he hasn’t asked for it this year. No doubt the club would say the cost of kits is comparable to every other Premier League club, if not cheaper probably. Doesn’t make it right though and wish they were more affordable.

Yes, shirt only. I could get an adult away kit with PL badge and GREALISH 10 for £55 elsewhere. It’s clearly aimed at kids and Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 The new retro line from Kappa is rather nice. I'll wait til that claret jacket goes on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Another nice training top that they'll never have any stock of I make that the navy blue, the claret, the green, the white, the yellow, the pride and now the 2 retro ones not sure if there is a black one too Out of those 9 I can get 4 of them in large, including the 2 new ones that in a week will be sold out Edited February 14, 2020 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) Looking at the recent training pics nearly every badge on the training gear is half peeled away. Not a great advertisement for the quality. Edited February 15, 2020 by jim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I didn't buy this season's kit, not because I don't like it, in its style or colours, it's just that I don't want to be a Kappa wearing Hoe.. Sometimes it's all down to just that little logo name and it's crazy how that works but really can't stand kappa. Then there's all the talk about I'm the quality of the shirt compared to Luke's shirts. Then they are more tight fit which is then when you have to go sizes up on what I am that makes you look way bigger than what you actually are.

Wezbid Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) If we're still with Kappa next season would have much preferred these being the actual shirts for next season. Edited February 15, 2020 by Wezbid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned above, the quality of the print is pretty bad. Dean Smith is being interviewed and all you see is cracked logos and peeling badges. It looks awful. I also wear some of the training gear once a week and it started cracking and peeling after a couple of washes. Fair to say there have been plenty of size and stock issues too!

Vive_La_Villa Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Leeds fans seem very happy with their kits which does suggests the problem is Fanatics? Does anyone know when our current deal with them ends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal opinion of kappa is they’ve gone scattergun, lots of designs hoping that at least one of them appeal to someone, as a result heave kept the stock low rather than risk lots of back stock, the problem being what they’ve produced is actually pretty good and in demand id like to know if at the end of the season they’d flush out a lot of the training gear from this year at reduced prices, they’ve got about 8 or 9 training T-shirt’s just rerelease them at a slightly better price (£10 off) and they will fly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwdriver Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I think after last nights miscarraige of justice, kappa shirts should be sacked with immeadiate effect. having the sleeves a different colour is giving a competitive advantage to the opposition when it comes to handballs. we need an inovative shirt manufacturer who can design a kit which appears invisible to the cretins in stockdale park. the ball will just assume an indecipherable shape with the jersey when veiwed on CCTV inspiration can be taken from the car maker bmw's vanta black paint and the fashion label vexed generation. If you have crap players you need to take extrA measures to compete in the unforgiving world of premier league football. Im suprised none of the players are wearing green football boots to protect against any close call offsides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any competitive advantage is one that our football club should be looking to exploit. Great out the box thinking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
