Yeah $150 for a $20 hoody is super value

Yep you're right clubs with Adidas & Nike charging $150 for a hoody is a rip off

Much prefer to pay less for the KooGa/BLK stuff  ;)

Hey Stig,

What's happened to our sponsor Signet?

Their logo is a glaring omission from the sleeve of the new polo

Hey Stig, when will the RFC website post details of the AGM?

Whilst snooping around I noticed that the Club Events page is a little out-dated, perhaps that can be looked at and have the AGM details included?

Cheers!

Then why is Kooga stuff much worse quality ? Must be on a higher wage at the adidas sweatshop. Seriously the kooga gear is best and less material

I buy new gear every year

And I can say that the KooGa stuff quality wise has been some of the best stuff we've had. Exceptional quality and vlaue for $$$

Much better than the Reebok stuff and the Nike stuff we had back in the early 2000's

Agree with this. Kooga/BLK apparel is excellent quality.

In all seriousness, outside of you and couple of others I haven't heard many complaints about KooGa/BLK gear

I know a fair few people that have bought the stuff over the last 3 seasons and all of them agree, the quality is excellent

Why don't you have a look at the embroidery close up of the RFC logo on the hoodies/polos? Makes me want to cry. Also many people have complained about crooked collars on the jumpers, and stitching hanging off stitched areas of the merchandise. You can get better quality embroided and stitched clothes at best and less.

Well considering the only things I ever buy are the polos, hoodies, caps & jackets I reckon I can comment on them and say I've never had a problem with the embroidery, it's look great.

As for "stitching hanging off stitched areas" - can tell you this happens with all clothing no matter what the brand or what type of clothing. All these things no matter the brand are massed produced and the finishing out of the sweat shops in Asia is poor very poor.

Last Adidas top I bought I had to return because when we got it home and took it out of the packet we found the stiching under the arm was missing...

Why?

If you are so sure that the embroidery is so terrible and makes you want to cry then why do I need to post a pic?

You must own one yourself to make such a sweeping statement about its quality or lack of?
