wixman1884 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I love it!! I pre ordered for the first time and even got MARTIN 9 on the back which I've not done before. Just hoping Rowett doesn't loan him out to a rival now before driving us to the bottom of the table. Also very grateful to not have to constantly explain to Americans why my t-shirt says JUST EAT on the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesterRam Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 not exactly inspiring are they, what happened to the highly creative designs of the 80's and 90's, Bukta designed some crackers whilst high on acid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably my favourite kit that I've seen us have. What? So far this season? I like it though. "Clean" was the first word that came to my mind too. The neck is right and I'm surprised that I like the white sleeves so much although only in the short sleeves. I'm not so enamoured by the white sleeve on the long-sleeve version. It looks like something is missing. I buy at least 1 kit most seasons, sometimes 2 if I really like them; home kit is almost always long sleeved though. I'm definitely keen on this though.

Can anyone point out a nod to the past 20 yrs in this kit, honestly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWRam Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Dont like it one bit. Cheap looking, tacky with iron on badges. And at £48, its about £45 overpriced. Much prefer the training kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRam Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 its absolutely wonderful, I prefer the 14/15 stuff thou, compared to recent seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see why if Mel wants to do something for the fans he can't sell the shirts and kit at a more reasonable price - it's not even like the old days where a kit lasted years, it's every year! Why not 'pile 'em high and sell 'em cheap'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not 'pile 'em high and sell 'em cheap'? Problem is, as long as people buy them at that price, there's really no need from a business point of view, to bring the price down. It's not like on a Saturday afternoon / Tuesday evening or whenever Sky want to air it, there aren't a s**t load of people wearing the new kit. So Mel's happy. Its like with the Arsenal fans complaining about the price of a ticket. They regular sell out, or near enough, so what incentive do management have to bring the price down (other than it's the decent thing to do, but when did that ever come up in a business meeting?). profing ordinary fans out of the game, bit as long as there are people with more money than sense willing to pay the listed price, then they'll keep charging it.

The point with 'pile 'em high, sell 'em cheap' (the old Tesco's sales pitch) is to sell large amounts, not just the few at £48. Better to have every fan wearing the shirt at home and abroad? Great marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price of the shirts are shocking. £33 for a babies shirt daylight robbery. Should get a discount if you buy more than one shirt. If they priced the shirts a bit cheaper I'm sure more people would buy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highgate Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 It's ok, not too bad. But then anything would be better than the awful 'Just Eat' years. I like how prominent and simple the Ram looks. Still the best looking club badge in the entire league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get my logo on as many people as possible. I suppose with the arsenal analogy, they are selling out, so why lower prices, but with the derby shirts, not every single fan has one, so it's a question of whether or not the profit margin is bigger if you sell 30,000 at £25, or 15,000 at £48. Actually, when I look at it like that, it's a no brainer, not to mention the added benefits of having more shirts out in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaverRam Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 It looks pretty dull in the photos, but better in the video with Nuge. To me it doesn't look like a Rams shirt at the moment (badges aside :-), maybe it will in time. It feels a bit Fulham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
