nobbyg 0 Posted February 20, 2004 Don''t wash it! Mine only gets washed in the summer for fear of washing out all the good home form. Mind you I only unveil mine once a fortnight over about 7 jumpers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moules 0 Posted February 20, 2004 Might be a good question to ask the club as I assume the players dont have a new shirt every game!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishbulbman 0 Posted February 20, 2004 the missus hasnt washed the proton one yet but the yellow on the lotus one doesnt look very good at the moment. i quite sad about it really :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skin em ewan 0 Posted February 20, 2004 try this it worked quiet well on my daughter lotus green topwhen its just out the wash,rub a damp hand across the logoyou have to do it firmly though,tend to get all the dirty particals of as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A pompey yellowandgreen 0 Posted February 20, 2004 hand washing is good for it. If you rub your thumb over the badge while wet the fluffy bits come out. But the little yellow edging on the proton badge has gone white almost. Still a fantastic shirt though one of the best. I wish when you washed the yellow and green flecky shirt, all the green flecky bits rubbed off, that shirt was sick! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
no1canary 0 Posted February 20, 2004 it seems to me that our kit is getting better every year. when we had the old colman shirts they were made of cotton or something and they were quite horrible! there was no give in them at all. i would like it if the sponsors were printed into the shirt so it was the same material. other than that i am very pleased for moneys worth.

XXL16 0 Posted February 21, 2004 Had to say I feel the same! You know I wear the Norwich shirt, shorts and socks to play football in Hong Kong, so actually I had to wash it quite frequently! The logo was already fill with dust but it is a problem that never been solved -- unless you never wear the shirt to go outside had walk or drink! I think it is fine for me about the Norwich shirt was with dirt and dust, you should see the same as the PLAYER shirt too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XXL16 0 Posted February 21, 2004 Honestly I am still for our shirt been made by...KAPPA! But surely I need an 4XL or 5XL with that since the shirt been very small!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Picto2007 0 Posted February 24, 2004 Wow what a response !I think the answer is simple. Never wash it. Just keepwearing it until it gets filthy, then buy a new one ha!I will try wiping my hand over as somebody suggestedabove though.Thanks for all your comments.I must also agree that this shirt is probably one of thebest we have had, especially when you compare it tosome of the other boring shirts in the league (ie binmens)Shaun.

Kent Canary 0 Posted February 24, 2004 Ive found using a bit of sellotape over the Lotus emblem takes the fluff off but I hate doing it.. and by the way Kathy pour white wine over the red and it will come out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazzathegreat 0 Posted February 24, 2004 sorry to have to post a reply to this!! what a thread lolthe way you get the fluff and stuff of the logo is to go over the area with double sided sellotapeit takes a while but it works, come on guys, surely you should know thisas for washing them, i have had my away shirt since the start of the season and it still looks new - and has been washed many times, you are all obviously washing them in harsh detergents, use a non bleach washing powder, plenty of conditioner and do not tumble dryeasy folks!!
