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. This is probably the thing i will buy funny enough as it looks nice That blue looks nice. I much prefer this shade of blue than that baby blue they keep using for the away kits 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. I've asked my guy at Subside Sports. Will keep you posted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we released the claret stripe version? Can't see it on the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKP90 Posted August 31, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 31, 2023 I would just like to say that, watching the Burnley game, I like our all white setup much much more than the pale blue shirts from last year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosch Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 The lettering is atrocious. It really looks like they were done in the kit man's basement. Mismatched font, crammed placement, absurdly large digits, botched spacing. I think it was the first leg of Hibs it looked like his name was K ONSA.

TheAuthority Posted September 1, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted September 1, 2023 The letters look absolutely stupid because of the blue on the shoulders. They need to move everything down including the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 25% off on certain shirts mainly ones with name and number on but with the code still cheaper than having the plain top, on kit bag with the code TREBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Townsend Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 The mid 90s font was class. The 95/97 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 A bit like every year, the kit is really growing on me. The more i see it, the more normal it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the ECL patches off eBay, they’re out there and the quality is good. As much as I hate the club font I want it for a replica. But that just may not happen.

Spoony Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 this is just absurd. This cannot be good for player performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Chindie Posted September 21, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2023 It's a small thing, but since we're whinging... These shirts are **** shit. Painfully ugly, offensively so, and the players look like they've run through the sea in seconds of wearing them which can't be comfortable. Diabolical. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 How wet the shirts look is atrocious, are we just using a cheap material? Surely we can change this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Are we the only club that this seems to be happening to this season? I've not noticed it on any other teams kit. Surely if that's the case we should be speaking to Castore and getting a new material pronto. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risso Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 It's our worst shirt, ever. I always buy a home shirt to play five-a-side football in, and it's horrendous. It's like playing in cling film in a swimming pool. Doesn't really matter for a load of fifty year old dads on a Tuesday night, but at the elite level where small decisions make a difference, we need to be binning Castore off bloody pronto. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanBalaban Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) Was talking about the shirts with a mate of mine yesterday, and the discussion turned to the winter games. Obviously the players will still sweat in cold weather, but with that amount of moisture being retained on the shirt, it's surely going to be freezing and uncomfortable to play in? Apologies if answered before @NurembergVillan but is this an intentional element of the kit, or a by-product of a poor shirt? Also does my hypothesis about being more uncomfortable to play in over the winter months hold water? (pun intended) Edited September 22, 2023 by StanBalaban Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) No excuse but the jersey is an embarrassment, i bet the players hate it because it looks like its holding them back. Probably why we are very slow Edited September 22, 2023 by Zatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
