I like it, it’s easy to make Huddersfield’s colours look good tbf. If I was to be picky I’d say get rid of the yellow Oxen stripes on the sleeves, a pin stripe would do, or even a thick one just without the logos.

I actually quite like the gold banding, I wouldn't complain if the new kit had this on it.

Great to see Castore enter the Super League market.

Patrick are back aswell, they’ll be putting the Jaguars Anus on Leighs new kit

Castore have compiled a number of complaints from those in soccer.

This is one of those complaints

It’s not like footballers to complain

If it sells as many as the last one they can put what they want on it.

Maybe they’ll add some Leopard b0110cks this year too then.

Castore are decent - despite some issues with some of the teams they’ve worked with. But they are a brand that have grown very quickly in a short space of time. 
Not sure how RL fans are going to get on with their pricing structure - but good to see them finally dipping their toe in  RL in the UK.

Yeah that first home shirt price reveal is going to be funny. 

I think they're alright tbh, they've certainly set themselves up as a premium brand from the off. I still prefer others tbh but they are a good company to have associated with UK RL - they certainly have a lot more Kudos than Oxen for example. I doubt their merch will be going on sale at the rate Oxen's does too.

Their rapid growth has been a bit of a poison chalice for them in some ways in my experience. Their offering at Rangers really was dire and limited for example. By now though Hull FC will be getting a premium targeted brand that is much better established and already has the Roosters and Storm wearing their kits.

Happy with Castore. I think in the early days they got too big too fast and struggled to keep up with demand a little bit. I know Rangers fans were not happy with them early on. But they are an established company now with some really high profile teams on their books. It also sounds like a fairly lucrative deal. 

Home shirts get launched tomorrow so I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with.

Don't need, the players will show plenty ###### like they did last season.

Well, yes...that's how shirt mock ups are usually done. You do know it's not an actual shirt don't you?

Not sure why some clubs waste a fairly cheap and easy marketing opportunity with shirt launches, just releasing a photoshop mockup seems a bit tin pot to me. Not having a go at Leigh as other clubs do it.
