Robespierre 589 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Having witnessed the shambles that is this year's kit, I feel the club should speak to Puma about the overall quality of the gear. Not only does the sponsorship logo peel off after a few washes, the overall quality of the material is below par. We are also handed an average template that is pretty poor in comparison to most SPL kits. (Aberdeen and Hearts are miles better).It's embarrassing and frankly humiliating to see our players training in kit that is literally falling apart. For a club our size, this is not good enough, and I will not be shelling out £50 for another piece of garbage if the situation doesn't improve.

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 The kits have been shite for years - I'd imagine Wallace has bigger fish to fry at the moment but it would be nice if somewhere down the line we get attractive and well made kits back Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

corkinator 611 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 THIS is the first year in decades I haven't bought a single kit, terrible and vastly over priced, disgusting to be honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don81 2,832 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Love the white one , the other two are average. Not had any problems with things peeling myself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robespierre 589 Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 I bought a Lions rugby jersey that cost me £60, the quality was fantastic as it always is from Adidas. I then bought my Rangers top for £50 the following week, and the difference in quality was shocking. Totally un-original design this year as well.

wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I agree with the OP the last few umbro ones have been belters in comparison to this one The quality and fit is shocking and the sponsors falling off is just an embarrassment to pumaI definitely think the club should have a word with puma and see what the fuck they are playing at Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tannerall 25,935 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Hope you are all feeding this back to the club, as they commision it. The club and Puma will assume all is good if you don't feedback the criticism. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bothwellbear 1,392 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 This year's kits are awful, overpriced and incredibly unoriginal. Puma only seem to have five templates. Just rubbish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyson1872 2,923 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I think a club of our stature should have a custom template made just for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essandoh 21,104 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 What's the most effective way of going about this?This isn't a direct answer to what you're asking but I think in order to make sure your voice and many others are heard on this issue you should maybe create a new thread and ask for it to be pinned by Admin.Clearly there's a widespread consensus that for the money Rangers fans are paying out the standard appearance and quality of the kits should be better. Most people however will just complain on the forum and not actually contact Rangers or Puma. If people realise that the only way to yield improvements for the future is by sending both critical feedback on this year's kits then change might actually happen come the next round of kits, albeit it might be too late for next season's.Organise everyone's criticisms into one standard letter, replicate, and send.
