marshy Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I went to get my 2.5 year old the kit today. I noticed that there is NO badge on the shorts unlike all the other ones. I had to look twice just to make sure, but there isn't one there. Now I know the kids kits are cheaper, but they are identical in every other way, sown on badges instead of being printed as has been the case with kids kits in recent years, so I was confused as to why this is the case. It's the same right up until 4-5 I think then from 5 upwards the badge appears. Nothing can be done, but I just wondered why this was the case as it does put a slight dampner on it.

PraiseOrGrumble Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 So its not just a dodgy batch where they've been left off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 So its not just a dodgy batch where they've been left off? Could have been but I didn't have much time to ask. Perhaps someone with a small child could confirm if they have the same problem. It is rather weird I must admit, not that my 2.5 year old would notice but that's not the point.

Do you think there is no badge simply because there isnt room on the shorts for the badge as the shorts would look daft having a large badge well it would look large on the little shorts anyway.

LaminyPie Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I'll be gutted if this is the case. Could be wearing any shorts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nk Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 This needs confirming as I bought a kids kit this morning and had it printed up but didn't check the shorts as they were under the shirt. The old kits had one so no reason why the new Puma kits can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old kits had a badge plus the new badge on the shirt is smaller than last season so there is no reason for them not to. Again, needs confirming by the club.

Sometimes no badge is better than a small badge as it may just look stupid like most other things to do with size where it just wouldnt look good on the eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a visual thing not a size thing (honest) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eDDie Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Other than the badge issue, has anyone else had one of the baby/toddler kits yet? I want to know if there are press-studs on the back again or if they're just a plain 't-shirt' neck - which would enable me to get TOMMY 2 on the back of my lad's kit... What's the quality like on the nippers' kits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the quality like on the nippers' kits? I personally think the quality is great. The sponsor & badge are all sown in & not printed, just that so far there does not appear to be a club badge on the shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miffed Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 My sister bought a kit for her one year old son, there was no badge on the shorts. We didnt notice until we got it home. Didnt think to check whether any adults shorts had the badge on or not, just assumed PUMA had decided on a kit with no badge on the shorts for some reason. Having thought about it now it seems a tad silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Press studs are on shoulder. Cant find little uns shorts to check. I'll have a look round, prob in washing basket which is like the vortex from the adventure game. Without leslie judd. Or that plant thingy.

eDDie Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Excellent - hopefully the club shop will be able to do name AND number on the chabby kits this season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Whilst I don't want to knock the club for their choice of kits & designs which I think are fantastic & without doubt the best we've had in years, I do think however it was a stupid move not to put the badge on the kiddies shorts. They may as well just be any pair of black Puma shorts which loses the whole idea & identity of them being Weds shorts. Epic fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
