billy bookcase Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 It is minging, but at least they have their kit on sale already. How come Thistle always seem to be the last team to put their strips on sale? Surely they're missing out on the Summer holidays and people wanting new stuff to take with them on their hols.

gerrybritton9 Posted May 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 saw the st mirren top up close today it is horrendous Yep, it's a total eyesore. We might get our kit sooner rather than later if the ttl site has taken all the current stuff down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAISLEY-JAG Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Possibly the only joy of walking through paisley these days is looking in JD Sports as I walk by and laughing at the St. Mirren kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thistle_1876 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 I spoke to TTL at the start of the week and they said the launch date was 1st of July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy bookcase Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Did they say why there is no Thistle stuff at all for sale on their site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peagreenboy Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 The back of it looks like one of those optical illusions. At least they managed to have stripes on the back instead of a big fecking blank box which makes the shirt look like a training bib ... it is still horrendous though.

P-T-118 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Are we going to get a 'kit' Price for the kids instead if having to buy all items individually. Last year it was approx £55 to buy an age 5 kit- dearer than any other team in scotland (and most English premiership teams). I think £35 would be fair, what do others think for age 5 / 6 ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peagreenboy Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) I think £35 would be fair, what do others think for age 5 / 6 ? Are children of that age even aware of what they are wearing? Buy them a yellow and red t-shirt from Primark and tell them it's a Thistle top. 35 bucks is too dear for an adult shirt, let alone a bairn who will have grown out of it before the season is even over!

Stewarty Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Who on Earth green-lit that St Mirren top?! Aside from the jester top and the pink camouflage experiment we've done okay in the last few years. I know it's an unpopular view, but I really liked last season's pinstripe home top.

Sinistar Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Text sent to my St Mirren friend saying I hope to see him and his wean wearing the new strip at our games next year Grew to like our home strip a bit more over the season but had no interest in buying it. The grim grey away strip was the worst in a long time, info from Ian regarding this year strips sounds good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean. I'm just glad they make kits for this age range for my two.

P-T-118 Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 Just heard from Joma, "we will be releasing a kids kit next season for 12,24 and 36 months and above this will be as before..." Excellent (I think not...) £55 for a Thistle kit - age: 5 / 6 - is simply ridiculous... Lets hope Barca, Valencia, Galatasary, etc... have a nice red'n'yellow kit for 2014 / 15 - I refuse to pay £55 fo a football kit - even if it is the team I love. I won't be surprised if I can get two kits for £60 - the joy of twins... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
read'n'yell Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 How do Joma argue for such high prices, when I think they are the poorest quality and design we have had in memory. 1st July launch aswell? No top for summer then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 The club should simply buy their tops from Toffs! 100% cotton, and less than 40 quid each! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedLightningUK Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Think the Joma top is better quality than the Puma top which was extremely thin and just in general not that great a fit. felt like a cagoul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our club is skint. Every penny counts. How can they afford that? Do others have to subsidise that? I'd rather the money went to the club.

JockinOz Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 The Levski shirt looks a good one,would be happy with that! And for the away,a subtle Royal Stewart Tartan shirt,black shorts and red socks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cup Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 How can Morton get Puma to make their strips and get them to release it a month earlier than us? We get off the rack with an ironed on badge Joma and July. Poor stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
