New Strip For Next Season

[StanleyWolf]

Why do we still have "Sewerage" doing the shirts? They're better known for their cricket stuff. Is it because they are cheaper than Nike - in fact, do the shirt manufacturers approach clubs or vice-versa?

Must say: I was very proud to be seen in Wolverhampton wearing my Nike Stanley shirt a couple of years ago when the Wolves fans wore Le Coq Sportif.

Like it or not; the make of the shirt carries a certain prestige as does the sponsor. How many would wear a shirt sponsored by Aldi or Primark?

Somebody here is used to the high-life. Snob is another word I can think of.
Personally I would wear a shirt sponsored by the Conservative political party with a picture of Britcliff on it, so long as it was in the best intrests of the club.

The nike shirts were just stock issue, many clubs have them (just different colours) and there is no prestige in that is there.

hahaha
nike was hardly 'prestige'!

I'd much rather be seen in a decent make like Surridge rather than one of the scally makes.

Prostar first. I still have prostar polo shirts that are as good today as when i bought them

Surridge second.. good quality sports wear .

Third would be something you find in a tip that the rats have had, stinks , wet with pee and falling apart.

Nike fourth. cheap tat that lives on the name only.. certainly not on quality.

Well said Shakermaker

I really like the surridge shirts, they are much better quality than the nike ones..

I bought one of the Stanley polo shirts (Nike) as a present for a family member and it was ruined after the first wash, even after following the washing instructions, very very poor quality and it cost me 25 quid, it was never worn again after that!!

My Surridge shirt is still like new and it was washed and worn week in week out last season

The new kit launching we know is going to be a Saturday will it be this Saturday 7th? Saturday 14th Burnley game plenty of people around the shop? Saturday 21st Local Holidays missed opportunity?

Regardless Of Sponsors, Makes Or Design - I Will Be Purchasing And Wearing The Shirt With Pride.

I have to say the Surridge one is brilliant.Looks brandnew. But then , it is treated like the Holy Grail in this house.When I reach for it,hanging on its paded hanger,I hear sacred music,the type reserved for holy things.

Pre-ordering the kit, like I said is something I'm used to in my past posts, It is free with no obligation, non at all, it justs rewards people who took the time to express interest in it, to have piece of mind that their kit will be there for them, in their size.

As regards to not showing it, yes I wanted to build an air of cloak and dagger stuff, of course. I want people to be excited by a launch event, I want people to talk about it, what it might be like. It's the one cool thing every two years that gets people talking.

But I will relent, there will be teasers going out early next week on the official site, I guarantee it, snaps of details you want to know.

Sorry if this upsets people, but I want anything commercial to be shrewd and impactful, I want accrington to be aware of its club.

Coupling this with Accymel's post looks like the launch could be this Saturday?

You wrote that a week ago. It is now midweek and early in the week has passed with none of the guaranteed teasers on the website. We have one item that the launch will be this saturday. So where are the teasers and snaps of details we wan't to know, that you guaranteed would appear.
