Is it basically a skin tight fit then?

It's tight. I get one size larger for the pro ones I have and it looks fine.

Depends on the brand. No real comparison point for Hummel. Think they did a pro & replica for Denmark a couple of years ago. Not sure about others.

Adidas - same size
Puma - 2 sizes up
Nike - generally 1 size up
Kappa - pretty much have to be built like an athlete to fit in a 3XL.

It's all very well for a bronze Adonis (h/t John Cooper Clarke) such as yourself, but what chance have the rest of us got?

Is it me, or does the elephant graphic look a bit naff.
Why not use the original elephant and castle logo ?

Looks like something a 3rd set GCSE graphics student would produce with only word clipart to work with.

I'm not the target audience, so my view is irrelevant, but that's awful. It's so bad I almost like it.

Yeah I'm not a big fan either. Looks a bit too cartoony imo.
At least it's only small on the shirt so isn't too noticeable

I don’t know why but it looks AI generated. Feel there’s better ways to do this concept (although not sure why’d you would do it anyway)

The new shirt doesn't look markedly different from last season's. A bit of a 2017-18 / 2018-19 situation. I was expecting something more adventurous perhaps.

I'm keener on the sky-blue shorts though and the round collar doesn't look too tight.

A cautious yes from me.

You're not kidding about the collar, it looks like it could slip off a shoulder.

Just checked and last years away kit was unveiled a month after the home, so maybe not for a while!

We did start last season with only a home kit but don't think we needed an away for at least a few fixtures.

Wouldn't be great though if that happened again, think we were the only club in the Championship last year

My local team have gone a bit CCFC this season. This is their away kit, but I really like it.



Actually, as a side note ....

Folkestone Invicta are installing a 3G pitch this season and are behind schedule and it may not be ready now til October, so they will play their first 4 games away from home and then after that, ground share with Margate and play their home games there.

Someone on their forum quite rightly pointed out, playing Ramsgate away is going to be nearer than playing Ramsgate at home.

Both the home & away for Folkestone are beautiful. Hope & Glory make some really nice kits.

I do follow their games online to see what's going on.

It was quite entertaining last season, because they had something like 712 players sent off.

I didn't check the stats for the whole season mind

I rarely ever buy from the store at the CBS myself, normally all online purchases, but it's my daughter's bday soon and she wants the full kit so to guarantee I get one I need to go in and buy it, how well stocked will it be when it's released? I need to get it by the 12th August.

I think last year they sold out the main sizes quite quickly, but things were ok-ish after the first few days. They're were still some sizes being snapped up as soon as they arrived but they kept restocking. They kept running short of letters for the names, too.
You have approximately 3 weeks, so you should be OK, but it may take multiple visits.

Not saying I like it but thought we space them out under King to try and drum up hype and sales rather than having them all put together and people picking which one they like the most if that makes sense?
