MoorgateRoyal They reserve the unique designs for the likes of Arsenal.

Isn't Reading's kit unique though? I've not seen another kit like it with the faded hooped back.

Jagermesiter1871 I'd like a small kit manufacturer again i.e kit@ although their kits were shite.


I remember the Kit@ strip at the time was marketed to us like it was a really high performance, high-tech garment using all the latest shirt making technology. But you're right. Really it was sh*t.


Wasn't Kit@ owned by Puma anyway?


No idea mate. It might have been.

Thanks to our hoops our kit does end up being quite unique. Al Habsi's goalkeepers kit isn't unique though. He wears the same kit as nearly every puma goalkeeper in the football league.

Petr Cech has the same template too - so not just football league goalkeepers.

How can anything be 'quite unique'?

To answer the question regarding Kit@, yes they were part of Puma.

Also worth mentioning the same guy has designed our shirts for a few seasons now. A really decent chap too who takes on board fan feedback.

The football club rarely show any interest in making specific requests, i.e. a twist on a former 80's kit for example. We simply ask for a few options to choose from and select one.

Other clubs are and have been giving fans the vote on which kit they prefer. It would be nice if the club gave the supporters a platform to share their opinions!

Fan votes can lead to some awful results, especially when rival fans start joining in.....

To be honest I can never understand why fans care which factory their club shirts come from who whether their keeper has a 'unique' shirt. I recall the days when keepers all wore green, refs wore black and kits didn't have logos on (which just mean they cost twice as much).
