    I tried on both. The pro shirt is very light but feels very cheap. the ironed badges feel like they will fall off in a few washes. The players get a brand new shirt every game. The ‘replica’ is a slightly thicker but still breathable material...

    Without having a non-pro version to compare the actual shirt materia I would suggest saving your money and getting a standard non-Stake version if they're still selling them (apparently the non-sponsored versions are limited). For all I know...

    Every "pro" version only has heat applied crests, logos, etc. Adidas, Nike, Puma, … it‘s all the same. The reason is that it reduces friction between the shirt and your skin which can lead to an uncomfortable feel while playing or even lead to...

    Sounds daft but it's minor little inconveniences like this that do my head in; I say get rid and be done The family I mean. Obviously keep the t- shirt as it's a collectors item.

    This one is good looking and reminds us all of the Cahill Vanilla shirt. They seem to have got the neckline from the Black Watch shirt Hummell did and that always seems tight. The collar seems a bit too big as well. Might look for this in the end...

    LCS shirts were baggy I concur but the designs were much more innovative and the branding looked better than Umbro or Castore. I still think some of the Hummel training shirts were much better than the actual kits. I have a black one with blue...

    LCS made a few nice shirts, this being one of them. Sometimes just keeping the design nice and simple comes out really well, even with a couple of elephants on the front don`t make it look bad.

    Well St Domingo’s actually did start as a cricket team in 1877 and like many cricket teams we played football in the winter when the ground was too wet to play cricket. The sponsorless version may actually be nice

    I don't really get the big deal about badges being a 'sticker' to be honest. Rubbish if it peels off easily obviously, but as long as it doesn't I don't see why it's such a big deal. Most people I see at the game wearing Montirex, North Face...

    Thanks. I think the club have to offer a version without gambling partner Stake on all kits.

    Couldnt tell you the last time I bought an Everton shirt but if that's true I'd buy the sponsor less version.

    Yet they're still huge worldwide... I get the impression that a lot of the vitriol comes from the fact that, in the grand scheme of things, they have no real 'history' and/or 'prestige' in relation to other popular sports brands, which seems to...
