Surprised no one has mentioned price of shirts this season... 10:23 - Jul 5 with 4746 views | itfcjoe | ...gone up from £49 to £55 - fair old jump. Comparison to other Umbro teams who presumably have the same costs/deal Bournemouth - £65 Burnley - Not Released Brentford - £60 Derby - Not released Huddersfield - £50 Ipswich - £55 Luton - Not released yet West Ham - Not released yet Funny how such a range for the same shirts, and obviously set by the clubs - guess ours will be in that £60 range soon, but has gone up so much in recent years - was less than £40 when we first went to Adidas |  |

At least we're (not yet, at least!) in the same ballpark as the top PL teams, charging £80+ for a basic replica shirt. |  |

To be fair everything costs more now than it did a year ago. I suspect it can be explained by inflation. |  | |  |

People will need to get used to things being more expensive with ffp meaning we need all the income we can get. Get us a new striker! Boooo shirts have gone up £6 [Post edited 5 Jul 2023 10:33]

Yes, that's a good point. Hopefully staff across the club (well, those not earning a four-figure sum every week, at least) will have seen a similar 10% increase in their wages as well. |  |

I think the kids kits are expensive as well, £42 for the infant one which feels punchy. They don't include the socks this year either which they did previously. [Post edited 5 Jul 2023 10:30]

I’d suspect (not wanting to sound like a hunt) that the business of the football club would unfortunately be wanting to avoid that! |  | |  |

I hadn't realised that about the socks. Although admittedly my boy never wore his ones this season as they never fitted him properly anyway! |  |

This is why I get a retro shirt. I've got the the old Fisons one with the laces which is my go to if I want to wear colours. Get way more life out of it by having a retro one. |  | |  |

Those PL prices are mad, I used to try and get myself a shirt, or kids shirts when we went on holiday but now up in that €75 range as a minimum even when went to places like Poland. We go to Paris in August, I have been on DH Gate and got them PSG shirts for £12 each - will save them going mad when they see an Mbappe or Neymar shirt there as I'll have "one I made earlier"....! |  |

Training kits are just as expensive - they'll be £50 as well |  |

Yeah a shame about the socks - my 4 year old can get shirt and shorts for £42, then socks £10 on top of that - for my 6 year old it's now £69 for a full kit with socks (plus £12 for printing and I've already been told who they want!) |  |

I feel your pain brother. Kids are expensive haha. The printing is bit of a hidden cost. Of course they then want Burns 7 on the back and you're looking at another 25% on top. |  | |  |

To be fair I don't think mine has worn his socks more than about once or twice either as he doesn't seem to like them. Getting the 3 items does make you feel like you're getting better value somewhat though. |  | |  |

And the printing is pretty reasonable really at that cost compared to elsewhere |  |

Is it per name, or per letter? If the latter, at least Burns wouldn't be as expensive as Woolfenden. |  |

Good point. The Tabb obsession suddenly makes a lot more sense. |  | |  |
Surprised no one has mentioned price of shirts this season... on 11:12 - Jul 5 with 2853 views | BloomBlue | I think that's fine, there is clearly loads of people around with money as evidenced with the number of shirt sales, so a bit extra not an issue, and brings in more money for the club* * hopefully the workers making the shirts, wherever that is (China?) also received an increase. |  | |  |
Just get a job at Tesco or SportsDirect… on 11:16 - Jul 5 with 2826 views | Bloots | ….you’ll get paid to wear the home shirt. Kerching! |  |
