    Alright lads. As we share the same kit supplier i was just wondering on what you think of them. The quality of our stuff is awful. The sponsor falls off after the first wash, the badges start to peel aswell. The stuff looks good but the geniune quality is awful. The club let anyone take their shirt back and get a new one when it happens, most people have had about 5 shirts this season because of problems with the quality of the shirt. The rumours say we have ripped up our contract with Burrda and from next season we will have Puma instead.

    Just wondering if you had the same problems and what you thought about Burrda. Cheers

    <ok>

    Not had any problems with my shirt. I get what you mean about the badges shrinking in the wash but they seem to level out again with use. I've not heard anything about us wanting to switch from them either.

    I haven't had a problem with my shirt so far this season. Its all in one piece, still looks relatively new. I did not like it to start with but it has certainly grown on me. There has been no discolouration from the autographs which i kind of expected. I am looking forward to seeing the new kit for next year.

    Well we both had Joma at the same time and both left Joma after a year and went to Burrda so i think we must have to same sort of deals or something like that

    That's true, not really a coincidence I guess. I have some Puma stuff that has lasted ages so I'd be happy switching to them.

    I did not buy a Burrda shirt as my Joma shirt is still being strong.

    I think Burrda are poo, worse than Joma.

    I really liked our black and yellow Joma away shirt, but I dislike both of our current Burrda kits. Waaaaay too much red in the home kit (we're supposed to be the Hornets) and the away one has a bit of a strange/odd collar.

    I really like some of the current UMBRO shirts. The current England home and away shirts are top draw IMO. I have the blue away and will be buying the home.

    My all time fave Watford home shirt was the plain bright yellow kit@ top with the red Toshiba sponsor.

    Aren't Wolves kit supplier also Burrda?

    We also have the added issue that they are our club sponsors, so we can't change manufacturer until both deals run out.

    Due to not having a washing machine at home, I wash mine by hand and drip-dry it.

    I have the last two away shirts, a training top and a pair of shorts of theirs - not had a problem with any of them! I use one of them every week to play football in, so they all get washed regularly!

    On a side not, was it a 2 or 3 year deal we had with them? I thought it was 2.... but have heard nothing about a new supplier or kit!

    bought a one of those burrda training ground showerproof things which is used on dog walking duties and most time I`m outside, the Burrda shirts I have quality wise have been okay although may have shrunk a little(more likely my gut has expanded <laugh>) and like Mitch I am not keen on the away strip last seasons was better.

    The shirt spomsor Burrda sign sticks together and rips a bit when you take it apart.

    We never seem to have had of the major sports manufacturers apart from Umbro in the 80s.

    Don't have any of the new kits so cannot comment but got the training top from last season which is ok.

    I agree its a bit too red TBH but its the players wearing the kit that really matter ofcourse!

    No point having the nicest looking shirt and being bottom by 10 points!
