CockneyFox Posted 4 May 2017 Share Posted 4 May 2017 The shoulder pattern on that Chesterfield kit is damn awful, even more so when it has the PL badges stuck on. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that it will be the Chesterfield template, but with gold instead of white and the collar + sleeve trim blue, not white. Good source right here! Genesis contract has ran out so we've either re negotiated that or signed up properly with Puma Either way, everyone needs to realise the design is still done at Puma HQ (seen this first hand) the only difference is the mass production/lower quality and none exclusivity to the design, done through the third party, in this case genesis.

Finchy Posted 4 May 2017 Share Posted 4 May 2017 21 hours ago, Kitchandro said: Ok so let's review that: http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Leicester_City/Leicester_City.htm In our entire history until 2013 we had yellow (not gold) on a grand total of 2 home kits. In both of those this was less prominent than white. Not once did we have a metallic gold colour. That colour started to feature in 2013/14 and has done in the 3 seasons since. The latter 2 have had more gold on the kit than white. If you didn't notice the change to gold and don't have a problem with it, I'd actually suggest you've only started supporting us in the last 3 years. The apathy from so called football fans is quite embarrassing actually. A bit of success and you'll let the owners do anything they like and will delete the posts of anyone who questions them. Ok so let's review that Mr Patronising: You've added the words 'home kit' there, I never said just on our home kits. Funnily enough I started supporting us when we were wearing a blue kit with and orange trim in 1996, there was also a lovely yellow/orange away kit at the time, how about next you go back through our history and count the yellow away kits we've had. You've also conveniently ignored the fact we've had a big ****ing yellow/orange fox on our kit for decades too. Really my only point here is, if you care about the difference between yellow, orange and gold you need to reassess your priorities in life.

HoustonFox Posted 4 May 2017 Share Posted 4 May 2017 That Chesterfield shirt is god awful! Grandad shirt style and trim is way too wide. Italy template with some tweaks (darker blue) would be ace. As would their white away kit. Shame we didn't go for it as Champs and gold it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lifted*fox Posted 4 May 2017 Share Posted 4 May 2017 That Chesterfield template is ****ing gross. I would buy one just so I could puke onto it and then take it back to show my disgust. I might even wipe a little bit of poo on it as well. Yes, definitely some poo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit disappointed there isn't more retro polo shirts and track tops as well as old match shirts being reissued, You ought to drop the club a line. i did so a few years ago about the ind coope shirts and john bull ones and after a year or so they started stocking them. i do like that bukta one in blue and the white away one.

I'd love if Admiral did retro polo shirts and tracksuits but it would more than likely have to be evidence of something they wore in the 70s or 80s. Considering the terraces were tight back in the day and made up of non branded jackets and the like the merchandise wouldnt be as prominent in old videos as it would be now. Puma wouldn't be keen either if the clubs Retro casual wear started affecting sales of current stuff. Does anyone have any pictures or links to any Leicester Admiral non-matchday stuff?

Rob1742 Posted 5 May 2017 Share Posted 5 May 2017 I remember how I felt when certain releases took place. Years ago it was a much bigger event, as it was a two year kit, so it was much more important that they got it right. Going back to 76, the admiral launch was just the biggest launch you could imagine as it was commercial for the first time, admiral badges around the arm, suddenly the football shirt world had changed and we were part of it. Scoreline was desperate. After years of Admiral and Umbro, this extremely poor shirt came out, under a brand nobody heard of. It was woolly on the inside and a terrible decision. It was woeful. Bukta came out of the blue. An old brand and a great kit in both formats. Still iconic today and as well received at the time of launch. The Jako one was the worst I have ever seen. The quality was appalling and the cheapest made shirt you could imagine. Now we get a new version every year it's not the same. We get some great kits, but maybe only wear them in a couple of matches. Last years white one is a good example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised so many will buy a £45 home shirt regardless. 3 kits a season is scandalous, but has sadly become the norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
