They'll be in stock by the end of March. No XL or XXL, though. Actually, you can probably rule out XS, S and L as well. Where have you had that from? The Macron shop in Newcastle has most kits up to 5XL - why would ours be any different? They have the Lazio shirt on their website from Small to 4XL Anyone who needs 4XL probably shouldn't be contemplating buying a football shirt.

Bit harsh, its amazing how small the shirts are nowadays. An XL isn't what it was years ago, now everyone wants everything slim fitted etc.

Our biggest issue is distribution. I have never, and I mean never seen a Stoke shirt for sale outside Stoke City Football Club and that includes when we were with Addidas and other top providers. Hopefully, Macron (or more likely the club) will allow shirts to be sold elsewhere now, including stores worldwide so that our sales will vastly increase. I looked in stores in florida that Stock warrior (& New Balance) and not one Stoke Shirt..... But I could find many other club shirts! Excellent point - I've never seen a Stoke shirt for sale anywhere outside of Stoke either. You could even buy a Notts County shirt in the Hanley JJB sports in the early 90s as well as Hearts and Tranmere!! It would be great to expand the 'brand' as I'm sure lots of people would buy a Stoke shirt and then decide to 'follow' us - global domination courtesy of Macron then :-D Back in the early / mid nineties I was in a JJB store in Luton of all places and they had Stoke tops for sale. The Asics ones with the wide stripes. On offer for £15. It was a bit surreal tbh.

Rather than generic sizes I suggest a player fitting guide.
For instance I'm probably more of a Shaq than a crouch size. Forget all this S, M, XL cobblers. Let's go personal.
I'm a Butland in my dreams, sadly a dream it shall remain.

Any fan who wants one worldwide can order one straight from the site, it would probably cost more to distribute them worldwide than we would generate back from sales. Don't get me wrong I believe in advertising and increasing our brand worldwide but you need to gain that support before you send the shirts out and hope somebody buys them.

I genuinely believe that something as trivial as a non football fan or a non any English team fan could see a Stoke top and buy it because it's different to the usual that they would find and that in itself can sometimes be enough for a guy in Greece or Portugal or Egypt or wherever to then research the team and get into it

The puma 2005 shirt had the box and Britannia logo printed into the shirt itself. No plastic box. It can be done....... If we ever do go back to the printed red box again - it needn't be a boring oblong, it could be a red elipse/oval with a white bet365 printed/embroidered on it.NO!!!

Is it just me, or does the away top have some weird design, behind the club crest?

I reckon the badge will be monocolour on the away (perhaps silver?)
Maybe its just a mock/sample
Big reveal today!

Actually if you zoom in I think the badge is full colour - its just the zoom/focus making it blurred/colourless/ghosty
