| Why go for a traditional shirt that looks identical to all the others. I loved the Maori tattoo one as it was something different and had real meaning. Why harken back to the past we should bd dragging the club into the modern world! Just hope that the colour goes back to the proper claret instead of that purply colour. Supposed to look like the wine in my glass!

Just no. Claret + Gold Hoops + White Shorts = Fartown.

| It would be boring if we had just hoops every year. Might aswel have the same kit every year. I like it when they are abut different. Abit less busy please this year though. Tryed having too much design on last seasons.

Aresnal - same kit every year (bar last season at Highbury)
Leeds - same kit every year
Saints - same kit every year
Yes we can have variations, but Maori Stripes? No.
Claret/Gold/White is best.

| Barcelona have had the same kit for years and are one of the richest clubs in the world. Their kit is simple and iconic, because they never change it. It's farcical to suggest that changing your kit improves sales. It doesn't. All it does is mean you are selling to the same small market over and over. You sell more by establishing the brand. Look at Coca-Cola, red and white is so ingrained as their corporate colours that people still believe that they are the reason we depict Father Christmas as being dressed in red and white.
Claret and Gold hooped home kit, white shorts. Vary it a bit occasionally.
Predominantly white away kit or possibly Gold.
Third strip with an alternative design and or colour scheme. If you want to have a non traditional home strip then have a more traditional third strip.
That way each year you have a new strip which your settled fan base can purchase but you have also got brand establishment as well.
It works in the NHL. New York Rangers and Detroit Red Wings are probably the two teams that sell more replica strips than anyone else. Neither team has sigmificantly changed their strip since the formation of the NHL. Indeed few of the original six have. Montreal Canadiens every year play in Red Shirts with blue bands across the chest. it's their strip, it's their identity. Boston Bruins are the Black and Golds. They may vary the amount of gold on the shirt or include some white but you wouldn't see them stick paw prints on their shirts.
ATEOTD it's a uniform, it's supposed to identify you as a team not make Karl Lagerfeld jealous.

Your analogy is not relevant at all! All the companies you have mentioned sell to a much wider audience either american or worldwide! barcelona are a worldwide brand selling to a worldwide market- to suggest that the same marketing strategy would apply to the giants (or any RL club) is ridiculous. My italian cousins would love an english football shirt from liverpool, nal or the england strip - theyd smile politely if i gave them a giants shirt and stick it in a drawer. Giants have stopped providing "ladies" shirts because they dont sell enough! The only people who buy the giants strip are giants supporters most of whom live in Huddersfield. If the strip is almost identical every year the usual people buying the strip wont buy cause whats the point? they may as well wear their old one an noone will know the difference. when the giants start selling their brand abroad then yes the strategy would be sensible - we sell a few thousand every year not a few thousand every month or week!
