I had the white and yellow Patrick kits, then the 85/86 Bass home kit. I have the 'new' retro blue bass centenary kit and they've got the shiny effect bang on! Wearing the Patrick kit, did you ever get called Patrick by those hilarious early 80s comedians? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never noticed them calling me Patrick, I was to engrossed in my own little world thinking I was the legend that was Bobby !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerbyGoals Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Is this years merchandise durable for any length of time? The Ram isn't stitched on like previous years so just wanted to know if everyone's kit was still in good condition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I didn't take the chance me owd. I bought a travel tee for 25 quid and sent it straight back. It looked liked something out of the Sports Direct bargain bin, very tacky. On the bright side, when my money was refunded I used it to buy a DCFCFANS T-shirt from here, bs aside, far superior quality. Might be something you want to look at.

SK47 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 My personal favourite was the kit with the EDL Sponsor. I think it was made by Puma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I had the Puma shirt sponsored by Puma. It lasted until about 5 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicME85 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 @DerbyGoals Had no issues with the home shirt, wear it to each home match and at home for any televised (or dodgy stream) match with it washed the Monday after so its been washed a fair bit since I got it. Wife washes it inside out then air dries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_ram Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I reckon the 2004 away kit has to be a contender for most resilient. It's the blue marstons pedigree errea one from the bisgaard et al era. I still wear mine all the time; the sponsor is printed into the material and all the badges embroidered so it's more than standing the test of time. The joma ones looked pretty terrible; matchdays were swathes of shirts with sponsors/logos/badge/all of the previous hanging off. They were cheap looking shirts on every level.

BarrowRam Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I buy the shirts nearly every year. Didn't like the kappa. Always had to buy a size bigger. Umbro are ok. The only issue I've had is on the blue third kit. The sticker at the bottom of the shirt came off. Would like a change to puma they are making some nice shirts.

But all the Puma shirts (Arsenal, for a start) are even more skin tight than the Kappa ones were.. Most durable shirt I have is the Thunderbirds 3rd kit from the play off season - that's cos everything's within the fabric, and embroidered Ram/Kappa logos.

Dimmu Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 My Adidas shirt had Bombadier as a sponsor just one wash... Then again, I blame matron for that. Just like those white clothes which has turned to pink. And all those burnt pots... I think I should fire her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casio Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Errea Pedigree shirts certainly the worst I had. Best for me was the 1998/99 Puma. Limited as the Puma was my first one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loughboroughRAM Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Only 3 recent shirts I've had are the Joma Play off season Home with Bisgaard 8 on the back, Adidas Prem away and then the Kappa Home Play off season shirt. Joma 06/07 - sponsor peeled mostly off but other than that nothing major but obviously having a massive blue flakey thing on the front isnt the best. Adidas 07/08 - Aside from the derby badge falling off within a few days (took it to the shop and they fixed it - never a problem since) in perfect condition other than the fact I've outgrown it. Kappa 13/14 - Still wear it regularly to matches and for kick abouts. Still in great condition never had any problems with it all printing etc in tact 10/10.

Philmycock Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Got the orange Patrick away shirt from when I was 13. And my son wears my old Bass centenary shirt now, cuz he's retro! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollycutts1982 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Best one is the blue & yellow EDS one from 1998ish, had it and have worn it regular since and nothing has come off it. Worse I've owned was the away dark and light blue pedigree shirt from 2002ish. Halfway through the season the sponsor came off. Also bought the kids kits this year and the umbro badge fell off after one wash. The cheap transfer type sponsors always come off. The best kits in my opinion are the stitched badges and the fabric type sponsors. The sponsors like this season always tend to come off. Seems to me as the cost of shirts rises the quality falls.

EssendonRam Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Off the top of my head, I'd have said the Puma shirts and the EDS shirts. Both are still in excellent condition...it was only yesterday I was wearing the home EDS (in black lettering) shirt with the Ram and 'Derby County' in the black circle (still my preferred logo too BTW). My home Adidas shirt with the BuyMobiles.com sponsor logo is still in perfect knick too although that may be because I don't wear it that often (come to think about it, the yellow Adidas shirt and the third (Argentinian) Bombardier shirt are still in superb condition too and I wear those two all the time.) The Bombardier shirts by Adidas are all great; even the sponsor hasn't deteriorated noticeably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
