I loved this kit back in the 80's, although I preferred the Adidas t-shirt to the replica kit as it wasn't shiny.

This is the mutts :thup:

That'd be quality, and about time we made the step up to one of the big two kit makers.
I think its more of a wish / desire on behalf of the fans rather than anything substatiated

I think it's the creative reading of a possibly substantiated tweet from an Adidas underling.

Adidas have lost ground. If you go back through this thread and look at the Kits of the major international and club sides, you will see Nike dominating.

Rooney Shirt Printing is most popular in 20 years of Premier League

In a report appearing on the official Barclays Premier League website, it was announced that in the 20 years of Premier League football, the most popular player name printed on football shirts has been that of Wayne Rooney by a large margin. The shirts with Rooney printing started being produced in 2002 when the English forward made his debut with Everton, but their demand soared when he moved to Manchester United in the summer of 2004, and when Ruud van Nistelrooy vacated the number 10 jersey in 2007.

The data regarding shirt sales comes from Sporting iD, which has developed the technology behind the replica shirts of the Premier League since 1993. Rooney’s name came ahead of those of Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, Chelsea striker Fernando Torres (counting also when he was at Liverpool), ex-Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo, and Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard. The market for the Premier League shirts has been expanding year after year, with the demand for shirt printing following suit. The popularity of Wayne Rooney is showing no signs of diminishing as the player is breaking record after record to write his name in the all-time stars list of Manchester United.

Does it matter who makes the kits? As longas Macron or any smaller company give us a home shirt with a claret body and blue sleeves I'll be happy...

Agreed, fantastic design and a must buy shirt.

KUMB should start a fans campaign to opt out of the claws of the major kit manufacturers and go the same route as Crystal Palace, by designing and manufacturing our own shirts.

+ AaronHammer should get thew job as Creative Design Director for all our future kits. End of.

The thing is I would help the club design the kit for free if they were to ask (well maybe for a season ticket and shirt :wink: ). However I don't think they get a great say in it from the manufacturers.
