My cousin knows someone who works in marketing for Macron and he advises me that the kit shown is the current favoured red and white shirt. I doubt we will be a big enough client to get a bespoke job so am guessing it will be this or something very similar.
[cite]Posted By: Henry Irving[/cite]nothing like the one we're getting
Can you supply an artists impression of what we are getting?.
No, I've never seen it but everyone was guessing what it would be like so I thought I would join in.
I can guarentee that most people will say they hate it before they have seen it up close and vow never to buy only to complain that when they go to the shop a few weeks later to do just that that they weren't enough on display/the sizes are wrong/it rubs their nipples/it's too red/not red enough/why can't we have nike or adidas.

Macron are looking to expand in English football, and their website lists the following as English clubs they currently supply: Sheffield United, Leeds United, Stockport County, Salisbury City, Rushden & Diamonds, Eastbourne Borough and Forest Green Rovers.
Surely we haven't sunk so low as to be considered "not a big enough client to get a bespoke job" in such company? Or maybe we have...

Abso-bloody-lutely, thats what I was thinking. I have to say at this juncture that all the Macron kits I have seen are poor to say the least, I won't be building up my hopes to think that our strip by them will be any better. I hope to be proved wrong.
Can't really see the problem with people having an opinion on new kits or guessing what the new kit might look like? There are far worse opinions on this site sometimes.
As I understand it, kits are usually designed two or three years in advance*, so there was possibly not enough time - depending on when we officially switched from Joma to Macron - to develop us something from scratch straight away, so we might well end up with a red version of one of their Italian clubs' 2010-11 kits.
[* I discovered this in a debate on a Deportivo website. They suddenly dumped Canterbury as kit suppliers and went with Lotto. Lotto just gave them a version of an Italian team's kit as there was no time to develop/design something new. Canterbury, in a fit of pique, leaked pictures of their next two seasons' worth of approved Deportivo kits onto the internet to show how much better they were than Lotto's

Of course people can have an opinion. What is so funny is that we don't know what the kit is or what it will be like but people are already complaining about it.
And that every new kit gets slagged off but after a copy of weeks people see it, decide they like it and then buy it. It happens every time.

The grey patches under the arms are a particular hi-light for me.
Having said that I don't think it is much worse than this seasons.

What is Ternana Calcio’s kit like ! They’ll never get out of Lega Pro 1a div. B with gear like that
They look very similar to two kits we wore circa 1994-96.
I like that! the away reminds me of the sporty Alfa Romeo.

Would be ok in ecru.
