The away strip looks great on the lads tonight, except for the silly floppy collar. Looks like there should be an untied bow tie draped around it (James Bond styles)

Very, very nice kit. Plus it's lucky for us, we have never lost while wearing it.

Its a nice shirt but I could just see that getting ruined if I had the grandkids. Whites just never stay clean in that respects Jeff Vader2011-10-10 10:25:42

Phil - The Harry Potter film with Dobby was on TV2 last Friday.  It was quite disconcerting watching it.

I would just like to say that not having the away strip in kids sizes is dumb.

Has anyone got a new top with name/number on it? What is the lettering like and how long before they peel off in the wash? I've never had any personalisation but the new top looks strange without something on the back so would be good to know more about these numbers/letters and how durable they are.

Speaking of 22 the question is best asked of Phil but when he said $15 for numbers is that each number so $30 for Dura?

Actually - watching last week's game on the net the yellow wasn't very neon - it looked more like Hurricanes yellow.  So the back of the shirt looked quite bad.
 
Fortunately in real life it is OK and the neon-ness means it's easy to see the players at the far end of the pitch.

Whilst having lunch at four kings with my good lady today, I was momentarily distracted by the highlights of the championship being played, a game which involved Hull City.
Now there has been plenty of comment on how our strip uses the same template as Hull City - but what I noticed watching the game is the Hull have vertical stripes on the back of their strip.

So I pose the question to you, Mr Adi Dassler, how come Hull have stripes on their backs and we huvnae?

When Hibs, went up, to win the Scottish Cup - I wisnae there - furfuxake!

I'd rather pay $90 for a training kit I love than $140 for a home/away kit I don't. Sign me up.

Also why don't you sell kids away shirts?

And long sleeves?

Well?

I think it looks better without them. The stripes on the back of the Hull shirt meet at an ugly V shape at the bottom, it just doesnt look right imo

"Momentarily distracted??!" ....

that hardly seems like a fair representation of the life-changing experience that watching the mighty Tigers is for any human worthy of entry into the deep spiritual and emotional world of Hull City fandom.tigers2011-10-27 07:17:53

This reminds me of a top tip in an old Viz issue.  Can't find it online but it is something like this:
 
A poem drivers can recite to themselves when approaching traffic lights to avoid confusion:
 
When the red light shines, I must stop on the line.
When the amber is there, I'd better beware.
But when the green light shows, then off I can go.

The Sony 'sticker' on my Stripey is starting to show little cracks all over itself, is this happening to anyone else?

The thing that annoys me, is that the sticker isnt even needed. Why not make the black box part of the design of the shirt itself (reverse black box of doom?) and print the SONY white text on top?
