So this year's training stuff is pretty much a re-badged Kappa range with higher prices.  Lovely.

That wa any first thought when I just looked.

Agreed. It’s so similar, just a brand change and price increase.

when you bring out so much range so bloody frequently the variation is going to be limited

Agree, very underwhelming, it seems they’re taking no chances with the designs in any of the gear so far & yes more expensive, maybe I’ll go & look to buy another old retro shirt instead.

Scrolling down, I wondered why they were suddenly discounting loads of the new gear. Then realised they'd still got the identical Kappa gear up.
Nearly twice the price of the other clubs they manufacture for. No thanks.

Yep, it's almost identical. I bought a couple of things in the Kappa sale to wear at Tuesday night 5-a-side. £20 for a ¼ zip top rather than £70.

If the club just came out and said the new kit will be out in July it would stop a lot of the negative comments.

By the looks of the Training gear I really wouldn't be too excited to see the replica match day shorts.

£42 for a Vest. £45 for a child's Training T-Shirt.

Expensive stuff the training gear.

I say that, but having never done a days training in my life, I'm no expert on the price of such garments!

I always trained in old rags myself, stuff that was relegated through time from my main wardrobe. I wore a pair of socks for decades that were from the 82 kit.

I had a pair of Le Coq Sportif socks with the double band round the ankle for many years. The heel would sit under the arch of my foot....

Don't you know there is war going on in Europe driving up season ticket costs and all other prices. ::)

The prices of the new range of training gear are extortionate, £48 for a polo shirt, £35 for a pair of shorts? Think I will give it a miss.

Yeah, exactly that! I think they were youth size, and I was in my mid-twenties.
