Mantis Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I don't know if I'll be getting any of the Macron tops. Not because I don't like them, because I do, but because I'm thin and the small adult top is super baggy on me. I don't fancy going to the villa in a nighty, but I also don't fancy buying a kids one. I wouldn't say I'm small either. I'm 5'9 (I'm guessing), but I'm just thin.Well I'm 5'10-5'11 and thin and the small fits me perfectly. I'd get that if I were you.

Rob182 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I have no boobs though! I have the white, away acorns top in a kids size. It fits nicely but has a noticeably smaller badge. I may bite my tongue and, in disguise, have a look at a ladies top If you see a guy in a villa store with a top hat and a pair of comedy glasses with a fake nose attached..... It's not Me :!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Platt Posted August 8, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2012 Actually no it's just a little shorter on the sleeve length I am talking cm's nothing noticeable unless you put the kids top against it which she did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean you have it one week, me the other, I mean both of us climbing in it and keeping warm on the winter night games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Yeah but who cares if you look cool!!! Thing is though, what happens if you put the shirt on, and the tag sticks out, revealing to all and sundry that the shirt is for ladies. If you're at a match everyone on the rows behind you would notice, and then one of them would add an extra line to My Lord, ie. 'Ladies Shirt My Lord, LADIES SHIRT', etc. at the Everton away game, and then everyone else would join in, and then they'd laugh and the guys IN FRONT will start looking round to see what all the fuss is about, and THEN the guys to your side will explain and EVERYONE will laugh except for me, I found the whole thing terribly embarrassing, I TRIED to explain it was a simple mistake, shirts got mixed up...but no. I will never live that one down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Platt Posted August 8, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2012 it's a fair point! i guess it depends if you care what others think? I can't remember where the label is but you would have to be very unlucky for it to poke out over a collar? i am sure they are just on the inside nowadays? If the worst comes just think of the atmosphere you would generate!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Macron are the pits. The home kit was bad enough but the training gear takes the biscuit. Absolute tat, and then they've got the nerve to print 'MACRON' in massive font on the back of the shirts. Unbelievable bad taste. Easily the worst kit supplier we've ever had, and I'm old enough to remember Henson. I agree Maybe they'll add to / improve the range pre Xmas ? How long is the macron deal for ??

moose Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 The external difference (if you look closely enough) between men's and women's shirts is that the tag on the right hand side that says something like "official team wear" is missing from the ladies shirts. On that subject, the ladies ones are apparently crap compared to Nike's as they're not fitted and have no proper "shape" to them, according to my gf.

KjParton Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I like both, away kit is a cool colour, but home kit fits me better, for some odd reason... Both are the same size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 have to say that green one is really really ugly. i thought it was ok at first but the more i see it the more i hate it. think this will probably be one of the worst selling away kits in history i think the polo shirts are really good though. might get one of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenz Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 What is this shit, where's the little macron man It is there... but as these Lazio shirts are fitted for humans and not apes, you can barely see it on top of the shoulders. :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
