americanfox Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 Ordered the black kit from here a couple of weeks ago. will post pics when it arrives. http://www.aliexpress.com/cheap/cheap-leicester-city.html My black kit I got (Kante) was awful. Proportions all off. Letting in the back wrong color, white instead of gold. But only $10 USD, so I'll live.
possiblygeorge Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 Club are in talks with Nike for next season's kit Are you sure? Thought we re-signed with Puma during last season for a couple more seasons... Having said that, Puma's quality of the shirts has been piss poor and would love Nike.

Jace Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 Its an absolute joke, yes there are many new fans this year abroad but I'm sure they'll be buying the fake 1s anyway. Everything's been out of stock since the beginning of the season

Everything's been out of stock since the beginning of the season I think they under-stock in case, as where if they get more than they should (not sure how they determine that) then they're left with a fair bit of stock from the previous season. Having said that though, if it's on clearance i'd raid the stock. Last season's or not.

Last season was terrible too, I think the problem has stemmed from being under that cheap Genesis deal from the Championship where they haven't come close to meeting our demands. The club must have potentially lost out on a fortune

The club must have potentially lost out on a fortune Might be a problem with Puma itself and not the Club. Even if not Puma needs to go. Last season around March they only had the Gold shirts available and the white polo from memory, bit of a joke. The quality of the shirts aren't up to scratch in my opinion. Would love to see Adidas take over.
goose2010 Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 Got a home shirt signed by all the 1st team for my birthday last November,just waiting for the season to end before I get it framed me to! I won one on here, thinking off getting loads of new paper clippings and creating a collage then framing the shirt over the top of it if that makes sense.
americanfox Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 Gave in and bought mine through the Club store. the Away shirt (black) is a lot better quality than that of the home shirt. I'll buy from the club store after the season's over and they have a flash sale again. A few years ago, they had a sale where kits (the ones with the stripe on the shoulder) were 10 quid, got like 4 kits and after customizing, was like 60 quid.

Yeah they always go cheap at the end of the season the ones that are left over, shame there won't be any left over this year especially if we end up champions

Jace Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 They're normally the larger sizes though, not much use for me Yeah always XXXL left, apparently this year they had to give them away to some American Football team as they were the only people they could find that they would fit
americanfox Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 They're normally the larger sizes though, not much use for me Got mine all in medium!
Jace Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 I got mine at the beginning of the season just made the mistake of getting Cambiasso printed on it
possiblygeorge Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 I got mine at the beginning of the season just made the mistake of getting Cambiasso printed on it Just call it a "collector's item"
Jace Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 Just call it a "collector's item" Might stick it on eBay and say its the real shirt from the 1 game he played in it against QPR last season, must be worth a fortune
Samilktray Posted 1 March 2016 Posted 1 March 2016 Are you sure? Thought we re-signed with Puma during last season for a couple more seasons... Having said that, Puma's quality of the shirts has been piss poor and would love Nike. 100%
Matt Posted 5 March 2016 Posted 5 March 2016 Right had a think about this while relaxing in the Jacuzzi earlier, think back to the Championship winning season, didn't they sell out and re-release with "Championship Champions" (Or words to that effect) that were slightly more expensive? I reckon they'll do that this season. Or they will simply just re-release the standard shirt's, as i've said, should we win the league, or fuck it! Regardless of it we win the league or not, without a doubt this has been our best season ever, making more of this season's shirt is the equivelent of printing money, I just hope they make more of the white shirt aswell! I want a Home and a white shirt!!!
promised land Posted 5 March 2016 Posted 5 March 2016 Isn't it to do with the supply, I'm sure I read they get four batches a season, when they're all gone that's it. So you can't just reorder stock like say debenhams or john Lewis do. Those four batches might've been low orders as no one could predict what's happening. This is only from reading on here about supply in previous years. I did go in the store before we left today and it does look a sorry place with huge xxl or tiny toddlers sizes left, some racks are now stocked with t shirts instead. Training kit isn't much better either.

DB11 Posted 5 March 2016 Posted 5 March 2016 Article in the Mercury today about lack of replica shirts but that King Power declined to comment
Eskay Posted 5 March 2016 Posted 5 March 2016 Considering the King Power Shop in Bangkok sells fake (non puma) I'm not surprised they undercooked the order. Its March. We're top of the league. And there isn't enough merch to do around.......I wouldn't have it any other way!!!
Eskay Posted 5 March 2016 Posted 5 March 2016 U can get one in thailand i bet! Not a real one brother.
