I like it when T-shirt vendors put a photo or a table with the width and length of the garment in cm along with the size (in bold in case Mr Kappa or the YTS lad at the Villa online shop is reading).

Agree 100% e.g. Paul Smith does this now and I know whether to order XL or XXL depending on whether it's a regular or slim fit. Never had an issue when ordering online. Wouldn't take much effort for Villa's kit as it's only one shirt in 7 or 8 sizes.

Thanks purpletrousers, just need to stop eating biscuits and chocolate every evening after dinner and I might squeeze into one of those. They do look nice.

I can't believe there are still online clothes retailers who don't do that.

otherwise known as a T Shirt

That in an actual polo shirt would be very nice.

I was thinking of shirts today imagine the sales on a Adidas shirt, claret, 3 blue stripes on sleeve with the old 80s crest and purity as sponsor.

Best selling shirt, ever

The crest needs to be changed. I won't buy anything from the club until it is. Last season's shirt was a one off because I could see it being in demand after and it was very nice but the Lerner crest can fuck off. Last season's would have been even better with the 80s crest. Every half decent shirt we have that has that Lerner one is a ruined shirt.

It's ridiculous it still hasn't been changed.

With due respect, nobody under the age of about 35 gives two shits about the round badge.

I miss it, but i'm an old fart that has some attachment to it.

That new 'polo' shirt has been ordered. All the better for not having a collar

I'm under the age of 35 and I give precisely 4.38 shits about the round badge. It's the best looking one.

The round badge is like TFAUSM - if you were there at the time, it'll almost certainly mean a lot to you.

If you weren't even born, you won't give much of a fuck.

I like both designs, however the round one , if reinstated , does resemble the current Chelski one or should that be vice versa?

The first ever Villa shirt I had was given to me by an older relative, it was the 1989 away hummel shirt. A beautiful shirt. It had the round badge on. It doesn't have to mean anything to me other than it looking the smartest. I would take the pre Lerner one as well though. I just want the Lerner one gone.

Nice, but £42 for a " grandad shirt" is a bit steep
