If cutting this contract short was worth doing because another is more lucrative long term, we'll do it. Typically, if a new brand wants the partnership, they'll be the ones footing the bill too.

They'll see it as an Arsenal classic in a few years. Our home shirt mind, oh dear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted August 8, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2023 In fairness, the kit is **** rank, so it's only correct that we prop up any list of kits this season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like our kit (I didn't at first), and it's the best claret and blue kit in the league by a mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Castore must be sacked off at the end of season due to the players kits sweating issue. That legit could affect our on pitch performance which is unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrim Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 I've always wanted a proper Adidas kit. Claret body, blue sleeves, claret stripes from arm to collar, round badge, a bit of gold piping here and there. I'd love the old trifoil logo but that's asking a lot. Maybe a decent local massive business like Cadbury, Jaguar or Aston Martin as a sponsor. Yeah... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 I’ve said it before but Adidas kits are the best fit for Middle Aged men with dad bods. I’ve got many Adidas kits and the L nicely drop over the belly. My Villa tops just hug it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkLillis Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Whilst they are all nothing special, i like what Castore have done with Rangers, Wolves and Newcastle kits this year. They are clean cut and traditional. Don't know why we have ended up with something as none Villa as what we have got.....i mean they haven't even got the colour right. I can think of numerous other times when we have all felt a little let down by a kit launch. Is it us.... the club? Do the people in charge fail to understand what IS Villa and what clearly isn't?

Adidas are the only kit manufacturer who seem to get the sizes/fit right (for the reasons you gave...) and I've been trying to figure out what size Castore shirt to order. So a comparison with Adidas shirts is what I've been trying to figure out (a size up/down or equal to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are perfect all over apart from the stomach area where my belly sticks out and it tends to hug it. Many wouldn’t care but makes me para. In hindsight should have got XL but then I have a feeling it would be too big in other areas. Once I lost the belly it should be a nice fit. I would say If you haven’t got a belly that sticks out then get the same size that you do with adidas. Otherwise maybe go a size higher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
