I've got a Moseley one, for example. I don't understand why RL doesn't do this too - although saying that I've bought the new Trin shirt and last season's because they seem to have decided trad is the way forward for playing in... ISC were/have been doing this for a number of years, with a cotton version, a poly replica version and then a player-issue type version. I am not sure if the cotton ones are still produced mind....

barnyia Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Polyester replica shirts on middle aged men is as bad as Lycra on middle aged cyclists! Cotton is the future.

It sold very well by all accounts. I don’t know why other companies don’t do the same or why clubs don’t demand these. Leeds have generally had a cotton version of at least the home and usually the away on sale. This year there have also been ISC made cotton replicas of the watersplash final Jersey. My personal fave however has to be the Superdry one i got. Classic 3 uneven amber hoops around the chest with a white collar. This and the other designs they did look good enough to wear anytime too which is a major positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you probably know this, but for the sake of clarity for others, I mean there's a "heritage" shirt in cotton that's just always available from season to season and doesn't change - which deals with the price and demand side of things for a more expensive thing to produce. The seasonal playing shirts, which might bear no relation to the cotton one, continue to change every season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audois Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Are O'Neils taking over the running of the Boutique at Gilbert Brutus. The French representative mentioned other local clubs St Esteve and Palau too could be involved. Some players already arriving then. Langi and Smith. Pre-season commences 12th November. http://www.catalansdragons.com/articles-9/175-6521-inauguration-de-la-boutique-oneills/ "It involves matters much greater than drafting the new rules...the original and existing games have their own powerful appeal to their players and public and have the sentiments which history inspires" - Harold 'Jersey' Flegg 1933 "Just as we had been Cathars, we were treizistes, men apart." - Jean Roque, Calendrier-revue du Racing-Club Albigeois, 1958-1959 Si tu( Remi Casty) devais envoyer un fax au Président Guasch?

I think last year was the first time they haven't produced a cotton version of Leeds kit, I could be wrong on that because I always buy the player issue shirts as I like (and am gullible enough) to spend a bit extra on a non replica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydney Hornets Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 In terms of quality of kits I can't fault O'neils. They've done Rochdale a few times now. Last years kits were crackers both in terms of design and quality. My only beef is their sizing, they're on the small size. A XL is more like a large.

Kirmonds pouch Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Wakefield have produced a traditional cotton shirt for while. However they are limited in numbers and only available periodically. They are not produced by ISC so I assume the limited numbers are there so as not to impinge on sales. Just guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O''Neills are an Irish GAA company. They struggle to get decent looking GAA kits. If they can't get their own sports looking right, what chance have they got with other sports? It's like getting a kit with an attached mullet. Learn to listen without distortion and learn to look without imagination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunsletgreenandgold Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I've said this before but I do wish Super League would put their logo on the front of the jersey like the NRL do. Would look quality now they actually have a decent logo - then (Sponsor name) Super League below as above on the Eels jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
