£48 for a shirt is ridiculous, would never buy one for that price.

Quote: Danril "From that I'm reading that this season there is no clothing merchandise at all for kids aged 4 and under. Is this correct?'"


I think you can still get a bib set and maybe a babies bodysuit but other than that nothing, especially from KooGa!
I think they've ran out of stock of sizes for the pyjama's with no sign of updating stock as they want to clear the bigger sizes first. The T-shirts all start at size 5, I might be wrong but for my son theres nothing for him. At his age though he doesn't mind not having the exact same shirt as the players as it's his Giants kit regardless, but it would be nice to update it as kids don't stay the same size.

Thinking more on the last point maybe thats why the club refuse to bring in more stock for the kids as parents are very unlikely to buy a £40 shirt when it could be outgrown in less than 6 months. It reminds me of my brother when he started high school being buried in his blazer on his first day but not alone as other parents didn't buy to fit but to last!

That's a key point here Wishy, kids outgrow their clothing very quickly and for 40 notes you want more than a few months wear. An adult other than the wasteline, can wear theirs for many a year and still fit.....just icon_eek.gif .

The gesture about free tickets to the games for the kids is a fantastic one, but don't forget an adult (maybe both parents) has to attend too, who may not otherwise.

The thing about kids is they are likely to wear their shirt whilst out playing, most adults don't (I only wear mine to the games), other kids see their mates wearing the shirt and want one too, a lower price would encourage more sales that's no doubt, especially if it's seen as trendy/mates have them and at a price parents can justify for 6-9 months wear.

It's more apparent now seeing as the Giants have pulled out of the 7's promotion where 7 year olds got a shirt from both Giants and Town plus 8 tickets all for a tenner. Town have carried on. Now this was a fantastic promotion as it encouraged quite a few new spectators for both sets of clubs. But the cheap season tickets for both clubs brought down numbers doing it. I don't know what the reason for Giants pulling out though!

Props to Durham for admitting when he's maybe got it wrong.

I'd also like to know why this has stopped, my youngest was due to receive his shirts later this season and is gutted now he will only get a town shirt icon_confused.gif
