But if you're lucky that water might contain enough microplastic to make a new "sustainably produced from 100% recycled material" football jersey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily we have kappa and fanatics. Even if you like one of their mostly terrible shirts they don’t make enough to worry about it anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like it. Goalkeeper kit designs peaked in the 90s and we are yet to return to those halcyon days. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely awful to wear though, the material was really heavy compared to the preceding Asics kits and that collar was the double-whammy of incredibly tight and itchy as all hell. Veering dangerously off topic, so I'll come back round to having softened a bit on the current home kit on the sleeves/collar, but those alternating width pinstripes are still a total deal-breaker. Should have just had a block colour instead. The away sort of gets away with it because the thinnest stripe being claret contrasts so strongly against the whites, but then you've got my hang-up with the two-tone badges. I do love that rear-back claret & blue piping on the goalkeeper shirts though, particularly against the yellow variant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved that keeper kit too. Here’s a gormless 10 year old me with it on at the league trophy photo shoot back in t’day.

andyjsg Posted August 22, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2021 Due to ridiculous traffic (and my kids weak bladders), even though I left Basingstoke just before 11am I only got to the Club Shop at 14:40ish and the kids area was like it had been hit by a Tornado and no named kits available for my two lads so at least yesterday I think they did some good business. Managed to order them something off my phone in Warwick services on the way home (Bailey and Ings). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
