Because no-one else will have numbering on their kits with a stylised Addicks sword on it?!addick1956 said:
Why is this numbering unique? It reminds me of Eastern Bloc numbers in the 70's.Callumcafc said:I enjoyed us being able to use the uniquely designed numbering/lettering last night.
It was something I’d hoped we’d be able to do for the cups.

We wore numbers with the swords on like that in the mid 90s I think1

Rang the shop yesterday, they had no idea when the ST shop discount would be valid. For all they knew it could end up being an offer ran over a certain weekend.
So, so far the drinks discount has changed from all bars, to the concourse only.... shop discount is when they allow you to use it and the free tickets are for games of the clubs convenience.
All thinking around this stuff is hugely backwards amd nothings ever straight forward. Recruitment seems to be better this year, but whoever runs/puts together the ST perks is a moron.

I have just purchased the Blue shirt and despite being a man of a certain age it fits lovely. Really like it.0

The only important people that might be confused is the referee and possibly anyone with a colour blindness issue. (Now no one has a black & white TV anymore).Chris_from_Sidcup said:
Their home kit plus the Saudi coloured kit i can understand, but surely they could wear their away kit?killerandflash said:https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/newcastle-launch-fourth-kit-saudi-27698992
Newcastle will be wearing their 4th kit against Brighton, as their 3 other kits all clash too much!
Maybe it's just me but they're completely different shades of blue and one doesn't have huge white stripes. Not to mention Brighton's shorts are blue and Newcastle's away shorts are gold.
I just don't see how anyone could confuse the two kits to the extent they've had to go and produce a special one off 4th kit.
I'd say the strong similarity between the sleeves alone particularly with the yellow trim would prevent these two kits from being on the pitch together. They could easily make the ref's job very difficult in the event of a handball situation in a crowded penalty area*. Who committed the handball? A defender or an attacker? No need to make the officials job more difficult than it already is.
* This is the primary reason why keepers wear different colour tops from the rest of their team.0 -
Caught Sheff Wed and Sunderland midweek, one in blue and white stripes the other in red and white stripes didn't seem to be any issues.
Also when Sunderland play Newcastle they both wear their stripes.
Do Newcastle just want to push their fouth shirt?1 -
The offer is most likely to be over a weekend when the vast majority of shirts have already been purchased.shine166 said:Rang the shop yesterday, they had no idea when the ST shop discount would be valid. For all they knew it could end up being an offer ran over a certain weekend.

Yeah it seems that way, I'd usually have done about £300 on shirts by now but am waiting on principle.Covered End said:

My oh my that's a lot. You don't wear them when running I hope. They'll not last five minutes the distances you're covering at the moment 😎shine166 said:

I'm sure I have some more in a bag somewhere, but here's 3 replica shirts (red ones are XL, ecru is 46/48), and a selection of black tops (macro training top XXL, macron training sweater XL and Nike casual polo XL)Henry Irving said:

With the goalkeepers' kits being essentially just outfield shirts in a different colour this year I imagine a lot more will be sold.

Cant imagine many even though we do have a degree of weirdo's supporting us.
I'm actually looking forward to seeing the range of training/casual wear. Even in my 40s I still like a replica top, but it becomes harder and harder to justify the cost for something I wear a dozen times for 1 or 2 years and then it joins the pile of old shirts in the back of my wardrobe.
The museum would be happy to take those old shirts off your hands.
Would help us out greatly
Even more recent one's we'd be happy to have @randy andy
@charltonnick will be all over those
Can you drop them off at the Valley?0 -

Don't wear it to an away game, you'll end up playing.Lincsaddick said:my white away shirt arrived yesterday, really nice piece of kit, my new favourite away, up to Nike standard .. has a feint grey pattern running through it, a bit like last season's FGR away shirt but not so obvious
Be warned, the shirt is a slim fit .. if you normally buy large go for XL, if XL go for 2XL .. recommended even for 50 quid (they do last a long time, well mine do)

Trying to buy a top is proving to be a bit of a pain.
The website has been showing as “out of stock” for ages, emails ignored.
yet I call the shop and they have them in there but no facility to post etc.Seems a bit counter intuitive, must lose a fair amount of sales because of that.0 -
I think it's because the online orders are sent from Castore's main warehousestackitsteve said:Trying to buy a top is proving to be a bit of a pain.

Called the shop about out ST discount. They new nothing about it at the start of the season and told me it'l likely to be one of those discounts that are usable on a specific day that the club say you can use it.
Another perk that's been made a faff.2 -
I visited the shop on Saturday to buy a training polo shirt. My wife was with me and pointed out that there was only Castore clothing on sale and none of the general merchandise that's usually found there (key rings, beer glasses etc). Is this a permanent situation? or are there plans afoot?.1

Hi Pete, I was told, from Deb, that all the ‘bits and bobs’ will be there from next month as there has been ‘obvious’ delays.petetheaddick said:I visited the shop on Saturday to buy a training polo shirt.

Yep someone forgot to tell Castore when the season starts , they'll know for next season1
-
I thought I'd have a look at other clubs who use Castore.
Bearing in mind the size of the club, and it is their second season with them, Rangers have got a very poor selection of merchandise available.
No surprise with our limited offerings then.0 -
Wonder what the revenue stream is for Charlton (I'm assuming the club doesn't run it now) for the club shop ie do castore pay a flat fee to run it or is it a percentage of profits?
If the latter I doubt TS is impressed with the lack of merchandise available in store and online and not just kits.
Would have probably spent a couple of hundred quid extra over past month on kids kits and other stuff but no stock available.
Surely business 101 is having stuff to sell when people are queueing up to give you money.2 -

Castore and Reiss are releasing a collab on gym gear. No doubt that has taken some priority over their smaller clubs0

I've just received a £5 refund for my home kit purchase.
Did I miss something about this happening? I thought it was only the 'voucher' we were receiving if we purchased it for £55.0
