Next Seasons Kit

[RFCUK]

anyone know if you can pre-order it so it lands on your doorstep on the friday/saturday?

also, what's going on?! a kit we can own before a game has been played in it..?!

[SLAMMED]

A few seasons ago you couldn't even buy it before the start of the season, just to boost away kit sales

[RFCUK]

Surely someone from the Megastore must be on here and will know once they have been delivered and could sneak a picture up on here?

[Royal Lady]

why does it have to be so flipping secretative anyway? Once they've agreed a design, why can't they just show us it and then tell us it will be in stores from July 9 or whatever?

[Barry the bird boggler]

Knowing Reading, probably because they won't know what it looks like until 9th July either.

But Not Kes knows!

Tis all about building the anticipation and excitement to fever pitch.... only to find out some utter kant at Puma has decided to make it look like there is a massive white cape built in to it. Personally I thought last years kit was the worst for a number of years and I wasn't even tempted to buy one at a fiver for doing the painting and decorating in!

Here's hoping for something decent this year...

Agreed. I regret buying last year's abomination. I wouldn't have bought it but the return of the hoops reeled me in.

I thought last year's kit was so much better than the Premiership kit, it was shit.

Premiership kit was one of the best in recent years IMO. Last years was the worst since I started watching the club in 93. Hidious shirt.

Yep, final design probably depends on how many mistakes are made in the manufacturing process!!

Joking aside, I really would love to know what the logic is behind RFC's timing for releasing shirt designs.

They always unveil the new kit modelled by players. So that leaves either the beginning of May or early July after their return to training. Doubt Reading are one of Puma's key clients, so it invariably falls to the latter.

Not much point in launching the new kit against Preston, if there's none to flog.

+1

I only bought the shirt because I love Reading in 'all hoops'. I didn't expect us to do it again for some time although I bet they will this year!

I do look forward to what Kappa have to offer next season imho, they're nice manufacturers.

[Slinky]

i must me a minority as i quite liked last years shirt

[Rex]

The shirt was shocking. The black outline to the bib made the design worse than it already was. A design fail of epic proportions.

[plymouth biscuitman]

It was the first shirt I didn't buy in,I don't know how many years, it looked like a gay matelots uniform.

As did I.

Has it actually been confirmed or are you going off what HaroLOLd said?
