It's also worth pointing out regarding the stats of this year's shirt sales that the original price point for both shirts was cheaper than it has been for quite a few seasons. Maybe by only £5/10 but that makes a big difference to some folk

A lot of clubs in all sports reduced the price of their replica kits last season Liverpool knocked £5 off theirs from the previous years.

Mike Worrincy did and the rest is history...

Does anyone have ideas when our new kit is out and who its made by, (hoping its not ISC) the kooga kits seem to have abit more quality than the ISC ones who make nearly all of the kits for the SL teams.

I've asked the same question too, hopefully it will still be by kooga.

supposed to both be out early december.

I'm going to guess that our away kit will be utterly generic, with no acknowledgement of the fact that we are one of the country's most historic football clubs of any code. Just a guess, and hope to be proved wrong.

Our last home kit was identical to that of huddersfield just a different colour, hope its more unique this time

Away kit will probably be bright yellow with pink spots ha ha

I'd say the polar opposite. Unless you mean the fabric rather than the design. Mind you, I'd venture a fantastically hard-wearing shirt featuring a design of a steaming turd is no better than a thinly made one with a nice RAB chevron.

Yh i was meaning the quality rather than design, i was going to buy the exiles shirt when they played at leeds v england but if felt cheaply made and abit thin, whereas the kooga shirts seem thicker and better quality.

To me they do anyway

If you find the 2012 Bulls kit thread I started about two week/three week back you'll find out what we are going with for next year

Could of posted a link big gleds kid

I'm looking for it now.

Post link cant find it unless that just me

Some hope!

It'll be chocolate and cerise with a purple chevron or something like that.

Absolutely agree.

"Please mister kit supplier, I know the Bulls kit you supply is popular and you sell loads of them to the fans, but I don't like it so can you change it? If you don't i'll never by one again! Mwaaaaahhh!" Sound of toys being thrown out of pram.

This is the only area where I'll admit to being a bigot. If you admit to liking what Kooga put out I think you're either a druggy or a weirdo. When I read peoples posts I always check back on to this thread so I can gauge if the person writing is sensible or not. I find it very useful.

Sorry but that's just not accurate. Everything there is in every shop was designed by someone, with a view to selling as many as possible. I would say if judged purely by sales, the vast majority of designs are either a failure, or a disappointment. The fact that a design comes from Kooga does not at all mean that it can't be poor, or even gash. Also, sports shirts are something of an anomaly, since it is an item that many fans will buy, whatever the state of it, to support their club, even if they don't particularly like it. This much has been evidenced by for example reading this forum over the years. I'v bought Bradford shirts I didn't like, just for those reasons. I also find ludicrous the suggestion that, of all the pro rugby and soccer shirts available every year, produced by the likes of Kooga, the one produced for every individual club is THE absolutely best one it could have been, and will sell more than anything else they could have made. If that is so, why is every other clubs shirt not the same, apart from colour scheme?

I'm not sure you can have a 'best', given the subjectivity, unless it's defined by sales, which let's, be honest are more likely to be influenced by how the team is, or is expected to be, doing in the league, rather than actual opinions on the shirt.

Obviously, as you point out, every year [ican't[/i be 'the best' every time, in any case if we ever get this mythical 'best ever' shirt we should stick with it permanently shouldn't we? Well, at least until the designers come up with an even better one.....which is likely to be a while if we're talking about replacing the 'best ever'.

Of course, commercial realities come into it, because even if we have a super duper, best ever, unlikely to be bettered, wonder shirt, when everyone has bought it, its days are still numbered because finances dictate we must have shirts for sale which fans want to buy and not another like they've already got. So, chances are, we're going to get a less than perfect one the time after. Still as long as it's wearable (and has the colours in the right order

) I guess it'll be alright.

i think kooga is really good howeve I did like the isc kits this time

I think the new home shirt should look like this

I always thought the problem with manufacturers was that they are a committee so 1 person might not like something other people do so it may get rejected, i did like this years kit was an improvement on langleys testimonial kit.

Purists may only want the old kits but time have got to move on personally i think they would look dated and a modern twist on the classic would be very nice similar to what leeds, hull, wire and wigan (for 2012) have got but they are all made by ISC and but their flaw is that they are all the same style part from colours which seems boring to me.
