Saints are the other extreme. If it sells they'll stick a Saints badge on it.
Hence why I force my dog to wear a Saints branded collar and lead. Whilst i wear a Saints lanyard for work. I've clearly got issues I know.

I was going to say which muppet buys that rubbish but...
I am sure my dog has a similar opinion.
Trouble is, you HAVE to buy a couple each year, as they only survive 8-10 goes through the washing machineAll the supporters from clubs who have Castore are probably still at work, working overtime to be able to afford a couple of shirts

Wow, are they really that bad?
Does that include the player ones (instead of the supporter versions) you pay extra for as well?
Put it this way - I bought a castore (away) one for 2023-24; and an aliexpress (home) one for 2024-25 (a mere £65 cheaper) - the latter feels like it's doing better than the former was at the same age - so some exaggeration, but they really are terrible, and I'll never buy another.

I have a small Bears bandana/scarf for my cat that never gets used. Luckily I don't often need a lanyard for work, my better half uses one and yes, it's one from the club.

My other half bought me a Bears T-shirt a couple of weeks ago. The Hem stitching is already coming undone.

I think peak for durability we had at Bris were the Kooga ones from the 2000s, Bass triangle being the fan favourite. Still looks new (kinda) from a wear and tear perspective.
I stopped wearing them a few years back as I've been really liking the modern shirt designs plus they're easier to make work with casual clothing. Speaking of, our home shirts this year look very different without the blue lighting used in the promos.

It's certainly colourful. I'm sure there is an advantage to giving the opposition a headache whilst playing them.

rugby uses goalkeepers from the 90's now?
Bath - £80 - Castore
Bristol - £70 - O'Neils
Exeter - £75 - Castore
Gloucester - £79 - Macron
Harlequins - £80 - Castore
Leicester - £80 - Castore
Newcastle - ? – VX3 - Plus 10% off for season ticket holders
Northampton - £70 - Macron
Sale - £77 - Macron
Saracens - £80 - Castore
Still waiting for the Red Bulls to advertise our merch we are being told around December due to the late take over. I'm expecting the shirts to be around £55 same as last season, but we will see.

Did Castore feel sorry for Exeter fans?
Don't you?
Bath can afford the extra £5. Your average bloke in Devon wouldn't know a Michelin starred club restaurant if it landed on them.
Then now do you explain Gloucester and Leicester?
Gloucester just want to be Bath. As for Tigers I try not to think about them to much.
