RangersFanBase 611 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Has anyone else got the new kits, and has had the problem with the Blackthorn logo peeling away? Logo has started to peel away on both my Home Shirt & the black 3rd Kit. Also the tops seem to have very tight fitting sleeves... or is that just me being fat haha?

WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 A lot of fans have had issues with the top peeling and arms being too tight. Your best bet is taking it back. Be helpful if you had a receipt but. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

govanblue 16,847 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 people were moaning (quite rightly!) about the peeling just days after release.I took that on board, and have never washed mine. No peeling yet, but don't get too close. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've asked a few friends about it; and apparently they took them back to the club, and were told to speak to Sports Direct about the problem, don't see why we'd need to speak to SD though? And some were told they had to pay for new strips.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangersFanBase 611 Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 The thing that concerns me the most - Is we've got five years with Puma, and the tops appear to be absolutely shite, and people will stop buying them, and then retail sales go down.

It won't influence me - I buy my one top per season, no matter what it's like, and only wear it at the games.But it will influence lots of people, I'm sure.

SteveJ 743 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I had not intended on getting one this year but the wife got me one for Xmas. Have to say, it is not bad but only in the washing today after its first use yesterday, so cannot speak about the logo.Fitting is not too bad, considering I have blubber ;-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalvinC 1,414 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I just put it down to having muscly arms. Ko I'm a fat disgrace. I like how the tops fit this year though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcbear 10,924 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 This seasons top is awful, poor quality poor design/template, last seasons umbro classic top knocks spots off the piss poor Puma effort. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wully 48,517 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Everything is peeling on the training top and there is no Blackthorn logo on the black shorts at all.Only wear the gear around the gaff though so i blame whoever washes them.

loyalfollower 1,543 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Check the label. Cant mind what degree setting but definitely wash inside out. Im tempted just to wash mine through in the sink without softner Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersFanBase 611 Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 I've got tops from the 90's that are still in one piece and haven't peeled, or needed to be washed a certain way. Puma are just gash in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And some were told they had to pay for new strips..If they were bought from the club store then Rangers are responsible for the item that is not fit for purpose.If bought from another retailer then they are responsible as they sold you the item.This is consumer law,so don't be fobbed off.
