There’s only one that is a ‘template’ and that’s cos it’s their 100th anniversary and a lot of clubs have had it. So I get that.Disappointed we’ve got templates this season, after having bespoke most seasons with Hummel it’s a big let down. They look ok, but could’ve been so much better especially after all the effort and thought that went into last season. They almost set themselves up to fail
To me the away kit looks exactly like Bremens just different colours. I’m happy with it don’t get me wrong. It’s just usually over the last few seasons the kits have been the best thing about the summer for the club, this season with all the good players coming in, the record season ticket sales etc. the kits seem to be a bit of a let downThere’s only one that is a ‘template’ and that’s cos it’s their 100th anniversary and a lot of clubs have had it.

the home is bespoke and the red away is arguably not a template, albeit very similar but not identical to Bremen.
View attachment 30982I really like the second kit
Have you tried licking cane toads?Been a wet summer so I'm hoping for a good harvest this year. Last year was dreadful.
No, but I've got some frogs in the pond and you've just given me an idea.Have you tried licking cane toads?

As a fellow sad git, I'll raise you, his seems to be the only one with it like that. Would the size of the shirt make a difference like Boylesports on the tramlines before? He is a bit of a short arseAnyone notice the Hummel logo moved to be centred around the stripe now as opposed to it being off centre for the kit reveal? Spotted it on Jay da Silva interview. Sad git that I am

Anyone got their pre ordered top yet? Must admit I impulse bought mine but didn't check anything around it's dispatch.
They all look dodgy and wrong although Im not surprised as they aren’t the real thingView attachment 31020
Away and third kids already on sale on DHgate so the Chinese factories must have already been making them
That's actually bonkers and disappointing.Not being dispatched until August 11th. Day before the 3rd game of the season
Still. There wasnt any issue with sourcing a sponsor remember
3rd kit I am not a huge fan of but see why others have sentimental attachment to it as I feel the same to the away kit ...
People do seem to rant on here a lot about minor details though ... do they realise the club make about £2 off of each shirt sale (that is fact - don't ask me to prove it or 12 baby kittens will be sacrificed).
my comment was tongue in cheek but I would be shocked if we get 60% ... Plenty of models out there suggest a club get in the region of 5-15% if they are lucky.Spoke to the bloke who runs the club shop last time i was in there (months back) i asked that question, we get 60% of each shirt sale which i dont think is that bad
does seem high but it could be that our set up is different than the norm. The kits do seem to take longer to get ordered/manufactured than other teams.my comment was tongue in cheek but I would be shocked if we get 60% ...

Unless we buy direct from Hummel and we are the vendor (but I didn't think that was the case)? Even then I would say 60% is high.
Someone has clearly made that up as they have cost to make and the manufacturer listed separately when one is part of the other. I also dont get where marketing comes from since most will be their own web/social media etc. if they are incurring costs then that still needs to be added to their share as it's so hidden. Delivery is charged separately (I've just been on their site) and this is one version at £80. there is an 'authentic; at £110 which clearly doenst cost another £30 to manufacture.The 10-15% figure seems low, if you look at something like this:

This is for a shirt sold via a 3rd party (like Sports Direct). So in Coventry's case, we'd own the marketing, distribution & retail cut. So essentially everything but the manufacturing, VAT & cost numbers here.
If you total that up it's ~45%. So 60% probably closer to the truth than 10-15%. And note that the cost here likely is crudely measuring the raw cost of the materials - all those "departments" taking their cut have their own costs to pay. So gross profit much lower. Of course the mail would go with the headline grabbing "EIGHTY POUND SHIRT COSTS JUST EIGHT QUID!!!!!!" angle.
Hummel should hire the Covcept guy .. makes bangers left right and centre
They’re on top form today
Surely have to reveal the away kit today.
It’s more the fact that’s leaked and everyone’s seen it. Don’t know why bother delaying it at this point.Don't need an away kit for Sunday, played in Sky Blue away at Shrewsbury and they played in dark blue, just like Leicester.
DHgate's are usually spot on depending on the vender. The images all ways look slightly off as they seem to think it makes it slightly less illegalThey all look dodgy and wrong although Im not surprised as they aren’t the real thing
Lads, they can't release the away until they have convinced Fraser Group to be the main sponsor so SaddleBrains can pretend to be right again.

I’d like to see us move to Umbro.Based on these latest disasters, it’s really time the club worked with someone else other than Hummel. Design and quality are poor for a £50 shirt
