Popular Post alreadyexists Posted August 25, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted August 25, 2023 It’s such a shame the home kit is crap… I honestly can’t remember one I’ve liked less. I mean, claret and blue… how can you get it wrong? It’s the best colour combination ever, and yet the home kit is awful. The other two aren’t great, but marginally better. The away is probably the best out of the 3. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marka Ragnos Posted August 25, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 25, 2023 Asking a really dumb question, but tbh, I can't seem to find a clear answer: Are all polyester fabrics the same in how they function? Aren't the current Castore kits listed as 100% polyester? Do they function like other polyesters? Also, there seem to be quality issues reported with the Castore kit, too, although it's hard to know how reliable this post is: Quote In contrast to many other brands' replica kits, the logos of both the replica and authentic kits are heat-applied on Castore 23-24 kits. The process of applying the Villa crest had been apparently insufficient for that Aston Villa kit. The Castore logo is of a different material than the club crests, so that won't come off certainly.

479Villan Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 I emailed the club to ask about the possibility in the future of a kit with the club font on it for the european games (I'm a big kit nerd and I like authenticity, what can I say) to go with the ECL patches. I got a reply from some obvious Fanatics flunkie who said he had looked in the system for "club font" and didn't find anything and that was that. Such helpfulness. Great. Also, the way I read BK8's deal, they only donate a fiver to AVFC Foundation for kits sold at the park, right? So if you order online, no money to the Foundation? I'll just make a donation myself, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was rocking this on holiday No real surprise but this looks like it's sold out Imagine what the club could do with a summer holiday themed tshirt they released at the start of the summer rather than the last week of August...

I haven’t got the Photoshop skills but I’d like to see it without the blue shoulder bits, I bet it wouldn’t be too bad then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Looks good tbf… even better when we play and win like that Easily the best of them, a shame the others (esp home, which should be the best) are so poor… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 The away kit looked great on broadcast and great in the photos of the game. I know it's just white, but it's easily the best of the 3. I'll be getting that one I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Seeing it on the players totally sold me on the away kit. But will wait for the sale still. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNVillan Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Want a shirt with the Conference League badge, but the ECL badge isn’t a customizable option online. An AVFC store rep said they can’t guarantee it will ever be available. I’m proud we’re in Europe and want something to commemorate our first European Tour since I started following, but alas.

Keyblade Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Away kit is lovely. Third is also nice, looks like it'd really suit casual wear. Gonna get both after they're on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe grab some of the training gear on sale. I have the travel hoodie and it's actually really nice. The fit is awesome, material is some strange kind of polyester (almost like neoprene) but feels really good on the skin. The "petrol" colour is gorgeous. Only negative is the drawstrings should have metal tips for the price. Very expensive ... £70 and I paid another £18 customs.
