New training gear on 19:18 - Jul 15 with 1287 views | Jimmy86 | I went and got the new away shirt last week in planet blue and I asked regarding the training kit and keeper kits, that haven't been released yet and their answer was that due to the sheer demand in the home and away kits they are looking to get that shifted first and then the other stuff would be released... Purely down to demand |  | |  |

Thanks for update. If demand is so crazy, club should get some extra staff hired for planet blue and sell more stuff. Promotion buzz won’t last forever. Cash in now. |  |

Think that's pretty much what they were doing.. shift home and away kits, due to demand, but they wanted to use the space to ensure they had the stuff in... When I asked about the goalkeeper kit or training wear, I was met with fairly short shrift... They must have been snowed under |  | |  |

Pretty sure the release of the training kit was staggered last season as well. Guess they must have some solid data about how and when to release stuff to maximise the revenue from it. |  |

It's almost as if we're now run by competent people, who actually know what they're doing... |  | |  |

This. It's about building anticipation. If the training gear all comes out at the same time as kit. The kit tends to get bought first and then the training gear next payday. This gives people a month to 'think about it' and a lot of people will either back out of it entirely, or wait until it gets reduced in March/April. You wait for shirt sales to slow, then release the training gear, and the extra flow into Planet Blue and online, might also sell you a few more shirts. |  |
