SB newbie here:

When new kits come out (which seems like almost every year) , do fan rush to buy them? Or, do they simply stay with an older kit even though it's not what the players on the pitch are wearing?

depends if the kit is shite or quality

Also there is usually a big rush to buy them when teams switch companies which some big clubs have the last few years like United,Juve and Arsenal.

United Adidas launch was the biggest ever in the world. They did a projected months worth of sales in one week.

I buy a new kit every time we buy a player that I like, other than Aguero and I buy a new one of his every season (Thank god I waited until he changed to #10 this year). Last year I got a Bony kit and this year I've already gotten a Sterling one. If City ever get KDB I'll get one of his also.

It just depends on what you want to do and how much money you can spend. Kits aren't cheap.

I usually buy one a year. This year I bought two, because the Liverpool white kit is awesome.

I got 2 City Umbro kits before they switched. Now that I have 3 of them it just depends on what the new ones look like. I much preferred the Umbro to the Nike as a whole. The home kit mostly stays the same so I concentrate on unique away kits.

I don't particularly care for the home kit, but the white looks great and I really dig the black one

Lol I actually liked some of the Umbro kits. The colors of City is what drew me to them in the first place, they were the same as my high school's colors.



This is one of my all time favorites.

They are if you order them from Chinese websites. Got 3 last year for under $40. Sucks cause they take a month or more to get here but they are identical to the originals. They even come with the tags from the brand its supposed to be

What's the quality like? Do they hold up or just feel cheap? I was tempted to order a few because of the price.

All the other sites I go to are expensive.

I bought one of these and its identical looking to the original, but the quality is terrible. Wouldn't buy again.
