We’ll have a decent kit at a decent price, available when most people want to buy it what if they don't offer us the most money or the most lucrative deal/package to be our kit supplier?guess it’s about priorities. What’s Villa’s priority, getting a decent kit out for supporters to buy in the summer, or twatting around for pences?

Aston Villa have signed a multi-year partnership with premium sportswear brand Castore, supplying kits for the start of the 2022/23 season.The agreement signifies Castore’s continued push into the highest level of English football, the Premier League, and is a further statement of Aston Villa’s intent to partner with premium brands who share the Club’s ambitions.Castore and Aston Villa are both aligned in terms of their future goals which include; striving for excellence, having a clear strategic direction and adopting a challenger mentality - making the new partnership a perfect synergy.The new partnership sees Castore supply Villa with kits across all men’s, women’s and Academy teams together with the club’s large and passionate fanbase in the UK and across the world. Castore’s range of exclusive Villa branded match apparel, training and leisure wear will be designed and manufactured with ultimate performance in mind.The new home kit will be unveiled ahead of Villa’s pre-season tour to Australia in July, giving supporters the chance to see the kit in action ahead of the new season. Two alternative match kits to the world famous Claret and Blue will be released in the coming months.CastorePascal Lafitte, Director of Partnerships at Castore, said: “Aston Villa is the perfect fit for Castore due to their growth ambitions and relentless desire to innovate, on the pitch and with their partners, and we are beyond excited to be partnering with the club.“We can’t wait to get started with them next season and challenge each other to push the boundaries of everything we will do together."Nicola Ibbetson, Chief Commercial Officer at Aston Villa, said: “This is a landmark partnership for the Club, joining with an exciting British brand who understand our ambition and strategy.“Ensuring we can provide high quality sportswear for both our players and supporters is crucial to the Club.

I can’t think of another club that has had more shirt manufacturers than we have. I reckon that Castore will be our 13th. Does that sound right?
Seems strange we dont have an Adidas kit, we've never had one either have we?
Quote from: Drummond on May 31, 2022, 04:00:54 PMQuote from: Risso on May 31, 2022, 12:08:21 PMI still can't quite get my head round how a company like Castore has gone from a start up to providing half of the Premier League teams in a little over a couple of years.Big investment from private equity isn't it? They will go big at the beginning, throw the money around and then, as they grow they will reap the rewards down the line. They got about £7m I think. Yet they're competing against the likes of Adidas (worldwide turnover 21 billion) and Nike (worldwide turnover 36 billion). Even Kappa have turnover of 8 billion. Fair play I guess, it just seems a bit odd.

It'll be difficult for a company to grow that quickly and unless it's managed properly I suspect we may pay for it in terms of supply and quality issues. Will be very happy to be proved wrong.
