Steve Diggle Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 As you'll see from the support at all the games the vast vast majority of home tops have been fine. I bought a few canterbury items for myself and know a few others that have done likewise (the home top included) and have had zero problems. Theyare bang on. There was a problem with the JAXX logo from Canterbury's end (the fucked up the pressing temperature I think) which was sorted for folks who took em back to the shop as was the case for everybody who took a legitimate complaint back. Canterbury as a manufacturer and Provan as a retailer need to honour their legal obligations. IF you bought a shirt and IF it was dodgy you'd be well within your rights to take it back. So my top was absolutely spot on (and I take it it's the same for all the dudes wearing them to all the games) - So. Do you want to believe that story? - or is it better to be scared off?

underboyleheating Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 So my top was absolutely spot on (and I take it it's the same for all the dudes wearing them to all the games) I noticed a few shirts at the Rangers game where the Jaxx logo had gone and some where it was starting to peel or crack. These people had obviously chosen not to take them back. In the cases where it was no longer there, I think they were the lucky ones.

another number Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 There isn't a "home" or "away" goalkeeper kit, it's simply decided on the opponents/assistants choice of colour. Ruddy will be in the Pink ( ) soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzie Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Mine came off and I just left it off. You can still see it a wee bit if you look for it but, to be honest, I prefer it without it so I'm not complaining. Although I am getting a bit bored of folk asking me if I had it removed because I'm morally opposed to gambling! Also, I've dealt with Provan Sports plenty of times over the years, both for myself and FPC, and I've been very happy with the service and quality. As for Canterbury, I'm happy enough to put it down to a bad batch of home tops as I've bought a few other Canterbury items from the 'Well Shop and they've always been good quality.

SCDave Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 As I posted before (it's probably been lost pages back!) the issue with the JAXX logo's seems to have been resolved. Canterbury have tested the new batches by putting shirts through washes of different temperatures and different durations (60 washes overall!).

Special aka Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I ordered one online several weeks back, but was informed of a wee delay with the next release. Is this likely to be resolved soon ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onthefringes Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Well, returned the wee fellas' on Friday due to the logo unattaching itself from the shirt. Asked when I purchased and informed problems lay with the first batch delivered only. Repressed with no problems and he was back sporting the colours up here in a sea of bumble bee kits. First wash since, lettering has peeled at the same locations and stuck in a back to front fashion over the other letters. The Wicked Witch (she may even pass it to the Wicked Sister-in-law, she's worse) has now been given the shirt to return, you lot can now get the earache! As is the current theme (the club and retailer can dress it up how they like) to change kit every season, are we the only club to offer a 'not far off six-monthly' kit? Get yours at half price after Santa has popped down your chimney... again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we change sponsor and were to put that on the same design of shirt we'd be criticised either way.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While shirt sponsorship and manufacture are out of sync, I only see one winner here and it isn't the fanbase. Cynical? Me? Definitely.

jonnymfc Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I purchased mine after the 8 v 1 game, and my logo has been fine. (i have been washing it inside out and at about 40, and has been fine. Dont know what batch it was but i always wash my tops inside out. (does this actually keep the tops in good condition? or is it just one of those things that were told to do?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While shirt sponsorship and manufacture are out of sync, I only see one winner here and it isn't the fanbase. Cynical? Me? Definitely. None at all! Noody is forced to buy the kits, and there isn't much of a difference in money taken in on strips between 1 season strips and 2 season strips. I know you think it's a convenient for a quick buck for us, but that really isn't the case, we're hoping that this years kits will be 2 years, that again depends on sponsorship..

It should certainly help a bit -- reduces the chance of badges and transfers getting rubbed or snagged by anything else you're washing at the same time.

If that's really just been a problem with the way the transfers were pressed in a certain batch, though, then I'd guess it's just the heat of the water that's done you there. No amount of inside-out washing will help with that, probably just coincidence it happened the first time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
