On the look - would have preferred they stayed with the chocolate and amber but thats the joy from an internal marketing point of view I guess - you can steer away from the colours and style and do anything you like (NFL/NHL do this well). I assume its Black cos it 'looks good with jeans' and is a bit slimming for fat boys like me!

On approach - as a SUFC johnny come lately (4 years going) one of the attractions is that IMHO the back office get a lot of things right. This is one of those occasions I feel. A little reward/incentive for those last year that joined as ST Holders etc (names on it is a really nice touch and the discount); and a nod to the fact that we need to keep it all affordable. Keeping last year's kit going as 1./ It didnt get much of an airing for fans and 2./ with the ST price hike it helps with balancing the pesonal books as their is not the pressure to stump up for another new shirt.
Nice one.

Aside from the kit looking really nice in it's charcoal grey (not quite black!), the names on the back of the shirt really is a superb touch by the club. Whilst I wasn't actively thinking about getting a new shirt for this season, that little touch and the discount given was enough to persuade me to put an order in.
Good work!

I think I prefer this new third kit, to the current away kit.

Club website says "Primarily black with amber flashes" although image does lean towards charcoal grey!

Couldn't agree more. Makes us feel valued and appreciated by the club, which means a lot. And it's bloody gorgeous too.

Aye, it looks smashing. I've ordered mine, just a shame it doesn't come with a complimentary magnifying glass to help locate my name on the back.

Purely as a matter of interest, what is the guestimate number of names on the shirt. I suppose the bigger the shirt the better chance you have of finding your name!!!.......it really dosen't matter.

Hours of fun when it arrives whilst waiting for the first time to wear it at a match! 😃 I love it - and agree it’s a great touch to have the names on it - my order’s in too.
