Well the idea of these appears to be popular judging by social media - notwithstanding the dissenting voices.
I guess the problem is they make tat and it sells. Which is fine I guess although at some point there will be an environmental reckoning for this waste of resources.

I just wish they would produce something quality or discrete, even a small range, to go alongside it. My two Leeds hoodies are both now over 10 years old and starting to show it but there's nothing I would waste my money on in the store now.

I've got the 68 Wembley one which is great. They'd almost sold out so I ended up with one miles too big to wear. Which kept in near pristine nick. Now it fits perfectly

What I'd really like is the 70s white one we used to play in under floodlights and away. Absolute snorter of a shirt, that.

The 2011 managers jacket is actually good quality and seriously warm. The hoodies are terrible. The cotton too is good, and so is the replica home kit.

Last shirt I bought was the 2009 cotton shirt. Great bit of kit that

Was going through my shirts earlier, the 2005 Patrick one was the best quality by a mile, great design too.

Best shirt I remember having in a while was the 2013 one. Wish I'd got the 2015 one

Me too all my Patrick ones are great, and sized as per description.

In fairness to Oxen the players issue shirts seem to be of a high quality and the design does look great, although at £80 per shirt they blooming well should be good!

They are very very tight fitting though! Had to swap an S for a M
