Ordered mine from the webiste this morning. An interesting thing, that might even apply to you Eirik.

As I'm outside the UK the shop didn't charge me VAT. So I ended up paying £33.33 for each shirt. Even with the royal mail postage over here, it ended up costing me less that it would have if I'd walked into the shop.

I think that will apply to me aswell. My problem is that our country has a limit on how much an item can cost before you pay customs duty and VAT. If my calculations are correct I would end up paying around £70 for one shirt if I order online.

Looks like Dover also liked the looks of these shirts - www.dafcdirect.com

Indeed, we have the exact same three kits as Dover, and god knows how many other clubs. Does rather shatter the illusion of being a TUFC kit.

Can't really bring myself to buy one, knowing that they are £17 on Pro Direct, £32-£38 with a Dover badge on, and three lots of £40 with a Torquay badge on.

Christ, l saw they had the same away kit but all 3.. Takes away that individuality away from the club but l still love the away kit and will be buying one this weekend!

I don't know why TUFC didn't consider Miller's fantastic shirt designs.

That's a real shame, I assumed with it being Nike and from Pro Direct there may be similar kits out there, but for them to be the exact same is a real shame

Probably because he posted them last week.

How long do you think it takes to procure, design and manufacture a bespoke kit?

That is an off the peg shirt. Barrow AFC have a truly bespoke kit from manufacturers Player Layer. Thanks must go to Paul Casson for getting such a high quality kit.

Another inspirational and truly interesting post by the dullard Barrow fans!
Mate - we don't give 2 **** about some random called Paul Casson nor wheelbarrows 'unique' kits for that matter!

Jesus Christ. Do you have a life. Obviously not.

I believe the club wanted to have a shirt by a big name manufacturer, and if you look at the Nike kits for england and man city they are of a similar design, in fact I don't think Nike do a bespoke kit for anyone and if they did I doubt they would be interested in the likes of Torquay and dover.

What the hell is wrong with a Barrow fan posting on what is a public forum?
Even one of the administrators on this forum is an Aston villa fan.
