Designed in the Dark- The Chelsea Jersey Thread

Not sure about this kit looks horrible to me at the moment, i usuallu warm up to our kits though. I love the current one but have ever since it got leaked

Really wish our sponsor was Samsung mobile again though as Samsung on its own is something i dont like, they need a better logo

 

don't get used to that blue/white/red one

Looks like it is going down the Real Madrid gold issue this season.

 

the first one looks more realistic....

 

it does but they both look terrible especially after this seasons one which I for one think is very nice

 

I like it. I'd like it much, much more if we were likely to actually win anything this season to justify gold.

 

I dig both of them and, for all the talk about the weird underwear feature on the blue and silver shirt, it's probably not a feature on the version fans will be buying.

 

Hey guys,

So I bought last year's shirt (from soccer.com if I recall) and the numbers/letters were felt.

I bought two shirts this year (from kitbag.com) and the numbers/letters are screen-printed.

Is kitbag.com legit? I always thought they were. Did Adidas just switch away from felt numbering and lettering for some reason? Or did I get screwed because I bought it from kitbag and not chelseamegastoreusa.com or something?

For those of you that bought this year's shirt, what numbering and lettering does your shirt have?

Thanks,
Tony

 

It probably means the jerseys is official, but they do the printing in-house to make it more affordable.

 

Hmm okay. But does that mean that the "really official" ones have felt numbering and lettering?

 

I'm not so sure....I just think they got a standard machine to print all names and numbers, regardless of NT team or league's specifics. The jersey is probably straight from Adidas but they are simply offering their clients a customized job by addidng numbers and names on their purchases.

Hope this makes sense.

 

I bought this years kit from the chelseamegastore and they both were definitely not felt numbering and lettering.

 

Thanks for your response Miguel. Oh, really? So they were that plastic-like, screen-printed type right?

 

Exactly. I've got three kits from the cfcmegastore and they all are screen-printed. Never paid full retail for the kits with lettering and numbering. Might be they're using different lettering if you pay full retail.

I believe Mshank got a kit at the start of the season. Don't know if the lettering on his are felt or not.

 

Buy from onionbag in the future. They have the official felt numbers and letters and are quick to ship. I've bought a few jerseys and shorts over the years from them and have no complaints. http://www.onionbag.com/chelsea-jerseys-145.aspx

 

gf bought me an away lamps jersey and its definitely the print/plasticy material. Honestly, never had a jersey with felt on it besides the championship badge on the shoulder.

 

Thanks for your responses guys. So I see you all got plastic letters/numbers too then.

352klr, have you bought a Chelsea shirt for this season from Onion Bag yet? I'd be very interested to know if that one has felt or plastic letters/numbers.

I'm just really disappointed because my Drogba shirt from last season (10-11) has felt numbers/letters as well as my brother's Man United ones from 09-10, 10-11 and 11-12.

 

I haven't bought this season's from them. I bought Frank's 10/11 Home shirt in July from them and the 09/10 Away in Mikel a year ago and they were both felt for numbers and lettering. The plus about onion bag is you can still get an 04/5 Jarosik shirt done by them. They were very hard to come by that year, even more so now.

Any Chelsea shirt you order from them will be felt, although you can always phone them with your order just to have confirmation beyond what they put on their site. I'm off the market this year as I'm not a fan of any of the current three so I just bought a home 95/7. Double-bonus as Coors is on the front. Still trying to hunt down a copy of the elusive tangerine and graphite kit that fits my gut from drinking too much of said Coors.

 

Screen printed right before my eyes.

There are different sorts, including Lextra which I believe is what is on the match shirts. The player issue ones also use a bigger size of letter and number.

 

Wow...those are pretty damn neat!

 

That link doesn't seem to be working, so...

 

yeah it's alright. kind of think gold should only be used when we're champions or something though.

 

I think it is silver...
