You must have shrunk!
I took an XL in Kooga and in normal shirts I vary from XL to XXL. Whether the smaller shirts are on a par I cannot comment but the larger sizes are definitely smaller and the sleeves are a tighter fit and higher up the arm.

I was a Large in Kooga. I have XL in these, but they're tighter on me than my L Kooga shirt (tried at the same time too, so not simply extra timber!)

There was plenty of criticism about certain issues on other threads. I started this to try and put a different perspective on things. The online shop IS lacking. Just a shame for you that I dealt with the shop on the telephone and found the service to be excellent.
I doubt it is the fault of Chris what stock the shop has but it seems to me that he is keen to offer the best service possible using the tools at his disposal.

| Quote Bully_Boxer="Bully_Boxer"I just hope you ordered about 2 sizes above what the Kooga shirts were sized at Eddie or you may be hitting your head against the wall in frustration come Tuesday!
I went up there yesterday and staff were friendly and helpful. Just making sure you try it on before buying though because I picked up a shirt with one arm longer than the other to start with! It might fit somebody in our fan base I guess, unless it was from the Giants template? Who knows.'"
 Thanks BB.
I read that they were a smaller make than Kooga so I ordered a bigger one than last years medium shirt that was fine.
That said, I need to go on a diet anyway so if it IS a bit tight then it is more of an incentive to lose some beef!

As I said above, I can't comment on the smaller sizes but the XL shirts aren't comparable.

To be honest there isn't a great deal in there other than a small selection of t shirts and the actual replica shirts. I assume we might see some coats/hoodies later in the season.

Laid ISC 3XL on top of Kooga XL; Kooga about 2 ins longer, 1 in wider, sleeves 2 ins longer. So I have a new shirt allegedly 2 sizes bigger but its actually smaller. You MUST try them on before buying.
As regards shop and Website, please lets remember that we almost lost the Club, that we were obviously late in setting up contracts for website and kit replica. Our credit was ZERO. We have a team playing each week ,which is surely the first priority. I cannot imagine that our new owners are deliberately holding back other improvements. We have less to spend than other Clubs and I trust them to optimise our resources as they think best.

No one 'up there' connected with the shop 'kept their jobs'. Chris, who is running the shop is doing an excellent job.

| For what it's worth I found the new home shirt, size L to be a bit on the tight side and, in general, large [i:1eetzn54always[/i is just not going to give a fair comparison.

| Quote Bulliac="Bulliac"
Comparisons with Kooga are a bit dubious though, for a start, the Kooga stuff changed quite dramatically part way through the contract, with the shirts from the first couple of years being of far better quality [stronger cloth, better stitched and more 'generously' sized, than the ones from the last couple of years. Also comparing sizes between a new shirt and one which has had several washes [and might have shrunk or washed bigger is just not going to give a fair comparison.'"
The last decent quality shirt I bought was the Jamie Langley testimonial shirt. The design wasn't everyone's cup of tea but it was well made and had some nice embroidery on it. I quite like the heavier shirt with embroidered badges but perhaps I'm in the minority because the newer shirts are mainly printed.
The last couple of Kooga shirts were really poor quality IMO but this seasons are a step back in the right direction.
