Top 8 Hummel Football Kits of 2019 - Living in a flamingo world

hummel are absolutely killing it across the board this year, which made choosing just 8 shirts very tricky.

Article there showing some of the efforts from Hummel this year, I know a lot of people want Hummel back from a nostalgia point of view but the variation in some of those kits is nice.

What's a little annoying is how nicely the Charlton kits have turned out - even though they went from Betdaq to the same charity as us.

Would love hummel back, any make but adidas

Donald said on the podcast the reason we have a patch on our kit is because it is a bespoke Adidas one and for Adidas to have changed it we wouldn't have got the amended ones until March. He said if we had a template kit we would get them back in a few weeks.

Has anyone told him the away kit is a template one?

On the podcast SD said it was because our shirts were "bespoke" and as such had already been ordered.

It's just a teamwear design with our badge on isn't it?

Am I missing something or was it just an excuse?

I also didn't believe him when he said it was selling fast, sounded like PR nonsense to encourage sales.

There was a few things in that interview that set off my bullshit'o'meter.

I don't understand why we don't get Hummel back. We would sell double the merch we sell with Adidas imo

Will just go to whoever pays us the most which is fair enough.

I have a lot of time for the current owners and genuinely think SD plays it with a straight bat. I agree this recent podcast had some answers I found less than convincing.

Suppose it's harder when you're getting criticism and skeptical questions rather than praise.

They make some canny kits but nowt flash.

Comes down to what they pay us bud. Plus, in the Adidas contract, they can match any other bid and hence we are stuck with them

dont get why there's a proper love in with hummel like.

We will see what happens at the end of this season, which is the first chance we will have to change suppliers.

Fingers crossed its not adidas.

Surely there's a way out of that though. Do they just have to match the financial offer OR do they have to make the same commitments to bespoke kits etc for example?

We should and probably can find a way to wriggle out of an agreement unless it's just down to the amount of cash.

I think it's natural not to be honest about everything. It's commercially beneficial to bullshit and I wouldn't expect anything different. Comments about the kit, Maddison and the net for away fans particulary stood out as on the spot nonsense.

Must have missed the bit about the net, what did he say?

Was right near the end. He just kept talking and talking and talking and by the end hadn't really answered the question.

The kit situation has been a problem for years tbf. When we got to the League Cup Final, the club shop had limited shirt sizes and were unable to get new ones.

At least SD acknowledges the problem

Same here. Don’t think they are that nice the kits they make. Purely nostalgia driven the love in imo.

I’ve seen plenty at the match. Quite a surprising amount tbh seeing as how much people had moaned about it.

Play in owt as long as we play winning football.

They should go with a kit supplier who can produce women's sizes. It's disgusting with our high numbers of female supporters that we can't buy shirts in our size.
