Having arranged cycling jerseys for a few people on here in the club colours earlier this year a Scottish manufacturer had little problem whatsoever lining up the hoops all the way around on the body, they did say the shoulders would be more difficult but not impossible and this was a small concern on an industrial estate in Falkirk!
I even managed to pursaude them to change their logo colour to white which was very discrete, I also had another company offer to make the jerseys and said they could make the hoops line up easily.
for a big company like ISC I really don't see how they would have issues when we've had irregular hoops on jerseys for over half a century.

Does it really matter that they stripes rather than hoops?

Is the shirt as good as 2008 or 2015? Probably not. Is it a smart, easily identifiable Hull FC shirt? Yes.

It seems to be very popular and should be another record breaker.

I think they'll use this one. Spotted something a while back saying there will be some Aus tour specific stuff coming out. Booking my flights in a couple of weeks, not long now.

Like it ,but not the black panels down the sides.

Buy an XXXL size, cut out the side panels and restitch it.

500 sold this morning!

Is it fully sublimated?

Someone text me to say it was M

Yes actually, it matters a lot, it's basically another cut n paste that whilst better than some years still falls short of our traditional black and white irregular hoops. That jersey simply has stripes on it, a hoop goes all the way around by definition. You only need look at the Steve Dennison photo to see how it should look. If Umbro could get it right back in the 70s/80s and beyond why can't ISC and the club get it closer to our traditional design? The excuse that it would be hard to line up the hoops is ridiculous as they've done the hard bit on the shoulder panels to line up with the body in the design.
As I said, it'll do well but it's not for me, I'll buy some training gear/polo instead.

To you, certainly. Perhaps slightly less so to others.
@hullfcofficial Another record-breaking day at the club stores with fans snapping up their 2018 home shirts and memberships in big numbers today!

yep me too, manchester to sydney midweek, then going to melbourne for a few days in between the games and then a hire car and road trip in the week after the last game

wouldn't mind a couple of nice training type tee shirts to wear as its going to be hot

The club has had an unprecedented day sales wise today best ever and a quite phenomenal take up, congratulations to the club and the fans.

We're hoping to out on Fri or Sat night the week before the first game. Also plan to be in Melbourne between the two games, then Gold Coast after the second game before coming home. Agreed need some decent hot weather gear, vests, beach shorts, a FC bucket hat would be good too.

Does anyone know when the away shirt is due to be launched? Or what it may be like?

Last year the away shirt was launched on the last weekend in November so I'd expect something similar this season.
