    Re: "Superb"

    It's just polyester is it ?

    A car is 'just' a lump of metal. Unless you have the capacity to look beyond.

    I take it back, it's not just polyester

    It's 100% recycled polyester. Get in.

    Nike says

    * A match-ready option with Authentic details
    Fi says You can get this shirts anywhere - every Sinday league side is wearing them

    Nike says
    * Dri-Fit fabric to wick sweat away
    Fi says :It's still polyester so unless u put a cotton t shirt on underneath, the smell of sweat will win.

    Nike says
    * Considered Design for high performance and low environmental impact
    Fi says : Took aboy 2 minute to knock up, no point in wasting any time on artistic design.

    Nike says
    * Contrast rib crew-neck
    Fi says : Yep that's the arty bit

    Nike says
    * Mesh back panels
    Fi says : We had some spare material kicking about the warehouse.

    Nike says
    * Fabric: Dri-Fit 100% recycled polyester
    Fi says Recycled? See above.

    So 'just' polyester then. Okay.

    Look, don't buy one. I'm sure the world will still turn.

    I like the design but I agree. The mark up is a rip off, especially for something so plain.

    Re: She is?

    Fired - have you designed a lot of kits recently?
    I love it when people say plain kits are boring.

    Bang some stuff on it quick, it will make people feel they have their moneys worth.

    She's got a skip load of recycled polyester in the back garden. that's all the Nike shirts are. Nothing else.

    Why do some feel the need to have a go at the club?

    Every kit no matter what team can be bought as a plain shirt.

    The example shown if it is that is the Portugal template. A quality non tacky well made shirt.

    Thats if it is that template......

    Where on this occasion have I had a go at the club?
    I've suggested that it's unimaginative .... That's down to Nike, not the club.
    What I don't get is people saying that it's fantastic quality, and that Nike is such a great brand to have.

    I understand the club wanting a traditional looking kit in the 125th year. I just think that Nike is possibly the most over rated brand on the planet. If that same kit had been made by Bukta or Gola, no one would be interested.
