I would f***ing love Puma, but only if we go full Cameroon Tank Top with it. @NurembergVillan Do you have any old contacts that you could make any recommendations to? *All joking aside, I’d be delighted with Puma, nice high profile brand and good quality too.

There are all types of directions you can face a lion or places you can stick a star. Perhaps we will need another, albeit dimmer and smaller, star by then!

Hobsons Choice Posted November 23, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted November 23, 2023 Just bought a Watkins away shirt in the Black Friday sale. Some good discounts on there, especially if you like Zaniolo or Lenglet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Puma size-wise and quality would be an improvement, but it can be a real crapshoot when it comes to kit design. They seem to either nail it or have a horror-show, with little in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 We need to go back to Kappa and have them make their tightest kits ever because the amount of shirt pulling the refs lets our opponents get away with is ridiculous. The Bournemouth game was extreme but was almost the same with Arsenal. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

News Sport Money Business Opinion Israel Ukraine Royals Life Style Travel Cul Log in 1 11/12/2023, 13:58 Castore hope ‘wet-look’issue solved as Aston Villa finally accept shirt delivery https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2023/12/11/castore-wet-look-issue-aston-villa-shirt-delivery/ 2/6 Telegraph Sport understands that Castore are still due to supply Villa with technical details over the changes that have been made before Unai Emery’s players test the new shirts out. No matter whether a solution has been found, it is still expected that Villa and Castore will cut short their ‘multi-year’ partnership that was announced last year at the end of the season. But the two parties have been working amicably and continue to do so. Players from Villa’s men’s and women’s teams had raised complaints about this season’s shirts that quickly become wet and cling to their bodies. Villa felt the problem with the shirts represents a performance issue, with men’s players claiming they become heavy and uncomfortable, while women’s players also raised concerns. The ‘wet-look’ issue was glaringly obvious during the warmer months of the season, when the shirts became much darker as they absorbed sweat. The cooler temperatures mean television pictures have not picked it up as easily recently, but the problem is understood to have persisted, despite Villa’s incredible form. In September, Castore promised to “address this issue as quickly as possible to meet the standards we expect” and the company finally delivered a new batch of shirts to Villa last week. Villa’s players did not wear the new shirts for either of the victories against Manchester City or Arsenal, which propelled Emery’s team into third place in the Premier League table. They are not expected to do so in their next two fixtures, either, against Zrinjski Mostar in the Europa Conference League and Brentford in the Premier League, but the shirts could be used after that if Villa receive the technical details and are happy with them. Castore felt the issue had been caused by an imbalance related to the BK8 sponsorship logo emblazoned across the shirts, but accepted full responsibility and vowed to find a workable solution. Given Villa’s excellent start to the season and the superstitious nature of some players, it is unclear whether or not any of the club’s stars could request to keep playing in the batch of shirts they have used up to now, regardless of whether others eventually change to the new shipment supplied by Castore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Nike are going to become synonymous with small heath, they already are to an extent as have started making clothing for them with the Nike tick and 'KRO', so I doubt they will be making our gear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You joke, but part of me is thinking... if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Obviously the shirts were broke, but the performances definitely haven't been. But... Superstition ain't the way.

I can't see Nike becoming synonymous with small health except in a tiny area of Birmingham, and never in a way that would affect a shirt decision with AVFC, but who knows?
