I have been a large in all of our previous Macron kits however Large on the new kit seems a bit short length wise, XL however is absolutely drowning in width! Care to hear if others are finding they are going a size up on last year or just about getting away with same size.... The sizing for this year's kit is a joke, I'm normally a 1x or 2x depending on the make, the new training top was a 4x to fit me chest wise but it's length is more like a dress ffs, same with the sleeves on the 1/2 zip training top the arms are sized to fit an Orangutan, they're so long. I don't know what size or shape of person or creature macron use as their sizing guide but it's time they reviewed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted September 6, 2022 Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 I didn't buy any training tops this year, but I did buy a home and away kit. When Macron first became our supplier XL was my size, and the XL tops fitted me perfectly this season too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a 4x would be for a Kipre or a Ruddy rather than a larger than average Fir Park punter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great message behind the release though it has to be said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizoxy Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Joe Efford is the American Shivute, so very apt.Excellent initiative by the club at a difficult time of year for many. The patch with the charity numbers is a great idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I love the idea. I cannot stand fluorescent kits. So I'm conflicted on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I suppose if we’d opted for a proper Motherwell FC home kit for this season this would have been a perfect opportunity to introduce a mostly Claret 3rd kit, but it is what it is I suppose.

A great initiative by the club, building on the excellent work it already does supporting mental health and other charities in Lanarkshire and beyond, a club to be truly proud of. And I actually quite like the strip a nice one off change and much better than the last black effort we rolled out, that said I have a couple of issues, 1. It should be available without the sponsors logo. ( as should all replica kit) 2. I'm still not keen on the MFC script But I'll probably still buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy H Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Great initiative by the club again. We may not be world beaters on the pitch but we are off of it by a long way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelmaninOZ Posted December 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Well done another great initiative by the club However don’t like the kit that much it’s a bit Livi like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The African Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 The kit itself really isn't my cup of tea, but fair play to the club for the initiative in supporting such a worthwhile cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the kit design came first, or the tagline, "out from the darkness into the light"...whatever, great idea from the club. I'm not sure a full claret one would have worked, the club are trying to get people talking. All claret, or any other variations of our traditional colours wouldn't have the same impact as this design. I can see why they've went for it to be honest.

Burrows - “our #SpeakUpSpeakOutBeHeard message is on the collar. It was 25 years since MFC launched the our first (and only) luminous kit, so we asked @MacronSports to design something that uses that bright colour and symbolise the journey from darkness to light.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind bright colours, I just don't like fluorescent bright colours (on a shirt) - for me, it just makes them feel a bit cheap and tacky. Reminds of the handwritten flourescent signs you see outside shops full of tat with "Everything on Sale" scribbled on them. Maybe it's because I lived through the outbreak of 80s Nevica that I'm quite happy to leave that in the past. Anyway, I get it's just a matter of personal taste and you can't please everybody. I do appreciate the thought behind it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
