    Has anyone brought any of the kits or anything from the Burrda range. Its bloody useless and falls to bits. Rumours was the club have scraped the contract with them and go to Puma for next season. Lots of people have taken their shirts back and exchanged them because badges was falling off their shirts after only going through the wash a couple of time. People who had names printed on the back aswell had the have them printed back on for free and its cost the club (Who probably charged Burrda) alot of money

    The reason I say this is because with the kit changing again soon the club are trying to flog the kits on the cheap, anyone temped i would say keep your money and wait until the summer

    Watford are also sponsored by Burrda so i bet they have the same problems

    you want to hope you don’t change to Macron then as I have had 3 shirts fall apart within two seasons & that’s not counting the GK top which I sent back after wearing it for a couple of hours!

    The main problem is the sponsor (front & back) just peeling off.

    Umbro still seem to make the bests kits, albeit IMO a bit boring.

    We had Joma before and they was pretty decent. The King Power logo falls off with a few washes and the Burrda badge comes off aswell after a bit. Very poor quality

    Very poor washing regimes in my opinion, rather than poor quality shirts. Son has a KP shirt he wears a lot. He's at Uni and does his own washing, and has never had a problem. Although, according to his shirt, his favourite player is B KF D!! (That last bit WAS a joke)

    No I always have washed mine on a low wash & never tumbled them either. I will be buying retro kits until its sorted out <ok>

    I never have had a problem with the badge as it looks to be stitched on but I have avoided our Black kit as the logo is print & I fear the same will happen.

    That's from 2010 so not sure we'd change now considering we're still contracted to them for another season. Another job well done Hoos <ok><doh>

    My brothers doesnt have any sponsor on it now its all fallen off

    The owners wont be bothered about the contract. The club/ Burrda are losing alot of money with people returning their kits so i dont think the club are very happy with the quality of the kits.

    I think they would be well with in their rights to tear the contract up

    My JJB shirt has survived me twice weekly washing for the past 5 years with only the Allience and Leicester logo looking a little worse for wear - also me sweating in it as I wear it to the gym.

    My mates old Fox Leisure shirt from around 1994 is still doing the job - although it has to stretch a bit around his beer belly.

    No clue why the more modern shirts fall apart so easily - anyone tried contacting Burrda direct to complain?

    Also in all seriousness contact Watchdog - paying £50 for a shirt that lasts a few weeks is a disgrace and someone should hold them accountable and this is the sort of story they love.

    My City shirt is fine.

    No problems with it and i've got name, number, those arm 'Npower Championship' things on the side, the lot.

    Although I heard we're after Puma too.

    Hopefully something along these lines;
