  • Is a footless sock just a leg warmer!
    Can someone explain the point of these, please?

    Most footballers have special socks that they wear on their feet for extra comfort and grip and then put the club socks over them, hence the footless socks. 
  • No idea, probably because there's a multitude of these grip sock manufacturers now and you'd probably have a load of footballers still cutting up the socks as they prefer something else 
  • Plus players tend to train in short grip socks, so can wear the same type of sock at the weekend 
  • Really like both home kit and goalkeeper kit. However, how likely is the keeping going to be wearing the black? Referees are in black most of the time so the keeper will be wearing whatever the away or third choice is. Nice shirt but not sure why they signed off on it.

    Ref has to change his top to adapt to the teams

    Happened a couple of seasons ago too if I recall, the 2 main keeper kits shown when we first launched them were orange and pink. Then someone realised they clashed with the red home kit too much so we wore the green "third" keeper kit all year, and then also realised at away games, chances are we are wearing red or the opposition are, so again we couldn't wear the pink or orange kit! 
  • Does it matter if the ref kit clashes slightly with a gk kit? The ref never stands in the middle of the penalty box, so will never be near the keeper.
  • No kit can clash with the referee. There has to be a very clear distinction.

    I like the kit but the likelihood is, we won’t see the black keeper shirt in action as much as the others. It’s different to a normal outfield kit, keepers change theirs far more regularly.

    What you’ll probably find is the away kit of the keeper will have to have RSK on it at times and University of Greenwich when we are in our away kit. 
  • Also probably rules out a black away or third kit for us this season

    Refs in the EFL are issued 4 different shirt colours so they don’t clash with team kits, just have to get used to refs in blue or bright yellow

    It's strange now seeing refs in black, same as players in black boots.

    I think it's actually quite a nice shirt though.
  • Leicester City faces a fine of up to £880,000 for colluding to fix the price of replica football kits, the UK's competition regulator has said.

  • Probably made more than that out of it.

  • Any idea why the keeper kit has completely disappeared from the online store? Is it still available in store. Was considering getting it for the Spain trip.

    So this shouldn't happen, but also, don't wash your football shirts on hot. It's a cold wash, whatever that means in Celsius.

    30 is considered a cold wash.
