Were no longer a target for the "big 3" manufacturers (Nike, Umbro, Adidas) To be fair, if the club asked fans want they want and use then ideas, any kit maker can make a decent kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthEastVillan Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 To be fair, if the club asked fans want they want and use then ideas, any kit maker can make a decent kit True, but the quality and impact would suffer by being manufactured by a 'lesser' brand.

AshVilla Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Surprised our kit isn't being made by aldi or netto with the cutbacks and austerity measures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthEastVillan Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Impact possibly, quality not necessarily. Don't get me wrong I'm by no means a slave to brand names but the quality of the Nike kits has been far superior than previous manufacturers. I know they're all made in a sweat shop by 8-year-olds but there's a reason the big brands are the big brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holtelower Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 2 Umbro designs I based the Away on on that City away kit want! :cry: Dreaming TBH. Were no longer a target for the "big 3" manufacturers (Nike, Umbro, Adidas) To be fair, if the club asked fans want they want and use then ideas, any kit maker can make a decent kit I beg to differ !. The club asked fans on what the new badge should look like, and we come up with the utter ameteurish no identity disgrace we have now ! And onto the kit - does it really matter who makes it - the answer is a resounding NO. Lets take Taccini and Kappa. 25 years ago these were THE two labels to wear as a kid in Brum. All the tennis gear was the rage and you had Taccini Edberg, Kappa Lendl (or whatever combination it was) etc.... About 5 yrs ago, I noticed Kappa and Taccini were all over the likes of Sports Soccer going for about a fiver for a pair of trainers. Now, me being 41, thought - bargain, a "cool" make for a fiver, I'll have a bit of that. Only to be told by my 9yr old daughter that no one wears that stuff anymore - it's all Nike, Adidas, Puma etc... Roll on 5 years, and what happens - Kappa and Taccini are all "cool" again, and now them trainers are about 50 quid !!!!!. And the likes of Djokovic have got it tattoed all over their body Similar note - I'd never heard of "Supadry" until the other day. Until my son wanted a bloody coat and it had to be Superdry - yeah, a kids coat for £120 !!!!. In summary - who gives a flying f.... who makes our kit. It dont matter, what is cool today, will be crap tomorrow. Sorry to tell you folks, but unless you are aged between 13-18 - you haven't got a clue what is "cool" - you are like me, a middle aged guy who "thinks" he knows. And I can tell you this, your nikes, Adidas's etc.. are not that cool, As a Villa fan, all I care about is that it has a claret body, blue sleeves and white shorts. And as long as it is that - primark can make it for all I care ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us it's the equivalent of staring at photos of Rihanna for hours on end before going on a blind date with a girl you're certain is going to be hideous.

holtelower Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 So. a serious question. If we get Macron, as expected, and lets say if the two kits were the ones just posted (which i agree are lovely and if they were, I would probably buy both, when I havent bought a kit in 4yrs) and If we could buy it in June. Would people on here actually stop moaning and agree that Macron was actually a good decision. The point I am trying to make is what I said previous, what matters is the look of the kit, not who makes them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
