    Charlton’s Bluewater pop-up store is getting a new look and a new location.
     It will now be moving to a new space within Bluewater on Upper Thames Walk.
    The current pop-up will close for the final time at 7pm on Wednesday, October 15th. The refreshed store, featuring a brand-new look and location, will reopen soon, with the official opening date to be confirmed next week.

    Anyone been in lately? Just wondering if they still have the blue training tops and shorts.

    Was in there yesterday. Non off the early reebok stuff left. Just the reebok heritage range. Did get me thinking how much sales they are missing out on by bot releasing new kits and training gear sooner

    I’ve always thought the new kit should be available as soon as the season ends, kids want to wear it on holiday etc. The amount it costs these days getting the most out of it is important.

    Bromley have, if they can do it why can't we?

    Clubs would sell more shirts if released before the summer holidays start.

    Summer holidays don’t start for another 7 weeks

    Small club, smaller order.

    We'll still not have ours by the second week of July on that basis.

    True, but they won't be ready in 7 weeks from previous experience.

    The home kit came out on the 16 June last year, so your previous experience, is just misremembering

    Shame. As before with the unit at Bexleyheath, these had great potential but just never had enough product range or stock.

    Sounds like only viable if Bluewater offer good terms.

    The Bexleyheath shop opened in Nov 2006 during our premier league relegation and closed after our drop to league 1:

    This is a backwards step IMO. 
    The shop there was a bit half-hearted tho.

    Couldn't they just have a small selection in the corner at Costa? Might bump into a player then too 😁

    Stick one in bexleyheath, Maidstone & Dartford- and sell cheaper tickets from them too! 

    Regain our foothold in Kent 🤣

    Bexleyheath hasn’t been in Kent since 1965.

    Meant more the Maidstone & Dartford for Kent part, but stuck bexleyheath in there for old times sake! 

    Maybe worth pushing the boat out and reaching for Thanet 😉

    Used to be an advocate of this, but I think the world has moved on. It would maybe only work in the PL now, I think, and maybe only then at kit launch (which is mostly moving sales around) and Christmas.

    It was only ever a pop up shop …it would cost a fortune to rent full time where the shop is at present and suspect only two months leading up to Xmas would be financially viable ..
