Away shirt

[grebovale]

The day you all been waiting for as arrived ... @OfficialPVFC: The new Port Vale away shirt will go on sale from 9am tomorrow: http://t.co/JfdYrGBL8a #pvfc http://t.co/jFD7yCDrHA

no doubt they will be all sold out due to a low stock amount in the shop before saturdays match when most people will have chance to get one.

[JOHNNYAITCH]

Fingers crossed that they have got the ordered quantity right so that people can buy them during the rest of this week and on Saturday when demand may well be high.

Off work this week so will probably pop up tomorrow to get it as the shop might be a bit busy before the match on Saturday.

What about this 'limited' wedgewood blue shirt?

I wonder what they base their projected expected sales actually on? Surely they should at least supply 6,500 shirts of which you would expect 60% to be adult shirts and 40% children.

 

That would mean at least 3,900 adult shirts- and possibly 3,000 large shirts, 600 medium and 150 xl and 150 xxl respectably.

 

There cannot be any excuses for running out of shirts surely? The training tops obviously were underestimated in terms of interest.

Next week I heard? Not saying it's true, but I'm an optimist

Depends on the terms agreed with the supplier..if there is payment up front then that's a lot of dough to find

 

But as to market research to try and assess demand..has there been any at all?

Nipped up the club shop about 12:30pm to purchase my new away shirt, steady stream of people coming in the shop and ticket office.

 

For those worried about availability there seemed plenty of shirts behind the counters packaged up in cardboard boxes seperated by size

I went down at 1:30pm today to get my away shirt. The girl said they had sold quite a few since 9am and that they seemed to be more popular than the home shirts.

 

My advice is that if you want an away shirt then go sooner rather than later as I think they may sell out of the first batch before kickoff in Saturday and the shop is open until 7:30 tonight.

My Mrs picked mine up this morning. I'm VERY pleased with it. I think it'd one of, If not the best top we've ever had. This one seems to fit a lot better than the home one. Sits better around the neck and just generally a better fit.

[Tubbs]

Went to get mine around midday. Plenty left for the weekend apparently. Really good fit too.

[valefandan]

The mrs bought me mine today. It's fantastic, REALLY impressed with the quality, possibly the best away top we've had. Badge is embroidered nicely and the collar hangs nicely too. Quite a few wearing them at the Q&A tonight.

 

Excellent work Vale

Impressed with the shirt, it looks better in the flesh than it did on the photos when it was first unveiled vs. Colchester.

 

Anybody else notice that the GMB logo and the Sondico bits are printed within the material of the actual shirt?

 

For as long as I can remember and not just with Vale football shirts the kit manufacturers emblem and the main sponsor have always been in material form by heat transfer or stitched on the shirt. (For example check last seasons UK Windows shirt or the previous Harlequin ones people you will see what I mean)

 

It's not a complaint but I do feel some folk may liken it to when you buy a fake football shirt on holiday from Spain/Greece/Turkey etc.

 

Anybody else think the same?
