ncfcstar 287 Posted March 9, 2010 [quote user="Indy_Bones"]Yet another total disgrace as far as I''m concerned - not because of the colours, design or even manufacturer, but simply due to the fact that anyone of an above average size can''t buy a shirt to support the team - at least not if they actually want to wear it...I''ve checked with the majority of other manufacturers, and many happily go up to 54" and beyond - Adidas/Chelsea even offer 8XL shirts, yet the best we can offer is a 48" max from our fabulous choice. It was bad enough squeezing into a 5XL "Flybe Fitted" monstrosity, but the fact I can''t even buy a shirt now is beyond a joke.How about actually seeing what potential demand for more ''outsizes'' is, instead of just thinking "**** you" to those of us of bigger build?The sooner we get rid of this Mickey Mouse manufacturer, and get someone who provides good quality kits in a good range of sizes the better.We''ve had racism, sexism, ageism and now we''re getting sizeism.I guess us chunky fans are lesser class citizens as far as this club is concerned...[/quote]Well personally I prefer to see the kit fitted. I don''t want a tent which is what has happened with the current kit because it''s just too baggy. It works both ways Indy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy_Bones 441 Posted March 9, 2010 It''s not even just the ''fitted'' part, but simply the fact that I need a 52-54" chest, and the largest shirt on offer is 48", so regardless of fit - I can''t buy one.It''s far easier to buy a smaller shirt to get a tighter fit, than it is to simply get a shirt that does fit in the first place.They go as low as 24" - when the UK average is 38-42", which gives a 14" lower difference compared to the average, yet only a 6" higher. If that difference was applied equally, I''d have the shirt that fits, and you could pick up a nice tight 24" top and we''d both be happy, instead 1 of us will be, and the other can''t even get a shirt.Thanks for that...

Indy_Bones 441 Posted March 9, 2010 On a side note for all those making ''fat'' jibes, or suggesting diets, how about going up to Schwarzenegger in his heydey and calling him fat with his 57" chest...Tall, well built people need bigger sizes than shorter, more slight individuals.I however can''t claim to have a chest like Arnie''s, and probably could do with losing a few pounds, but that shouldn''t mean that I can''t support my team, just because someone can''t be arsed to offer a couple of larger sizes, when shedloads of other clubs do.

Barclay hero 0 Posted March 9, 2010 Indy your chest is even bigger than my Mrs and she''s 7 months pregnant! Having said that I too have moobs and would just about fit in the biggest size. I agree that in the current day 48" isnt particularly big - but try buying a cheap suit from Tesco or Primark - you wont get one of those to fit either.
