This is a good Oxen design

Oxen are really tinpot, I’d be annoyed if we went with them. Their designs are crap and the quality is ****e, might as well just start ordering our kits from Temu instead.
Agreed. Proper scraping the barrel there. The financial situation may have stabilised somewhat after the summer and we can pay football creditors on time (hopefully) but if that’s who we’re going with next season, it suggests we’re tightening our belts quite severely.

But doesn’t Acun own the kappa brand, so we are unlikely to get a better deal elsewhere. All seems very strange to me

He owns the license for Kappa Türkiye, I think. We’ve binned them because of quality and supply issues.

We could go with any one of Adidas, Nike, Puma, Umbro, Errea, Hummel, Joma etc. but Oxen? We were supposed to go back to Umbro for this season but the deal fell through for reasons unknown. Makes you wonder why. Did we pull out or did Umbro? Are some of the bigger and more reputable kit suppliers wary of our issues with paying vendors and giving less favourable terms for potential kit deals?

Maybe the club feel that we would be a valued partner for Oxen and they would be better able to meet our requirements & wishes, as opposed to being just another account and a relative minnow with the likes of Adidas, Nike, Umbro, Puma, etc?
Year after year we seem to have issues with supply (and quite often **** design, if not of kit then certainly of leisure wear).
Also a Yorkshire based organisation.
Just a thought.
Edit: just seen that a Leigh Jenkinson is CEO there. Can't be can it? #shuffle
 
Another thing is that a lot of the Kappa merch was highly popular, even if some of the kits were a bit ‘meh’. They did a lot of limited edition stuff that flew off the shelf.

You just won’t get that with naff ****e like Oxen. Steven Toast said it best when he said Oxen is one step above getting kids from a local primary school to make our kits.
 
If the Kappa logo wasn’t so **** & plastered all over the shirts, I’d have bought something over the last few years, but it is **** & is plastered all over the shirts do I didn’t!
Looking forward to a new shirt maker. TWT whether it’s the right one or not.

From what I can see, the consensus by Lincoln and Donny fans regarding Oxen is that the quality is a bit ****, the material feels and looks cheap and the collars are too wide and baggy.

I get the feeling we’re going with them because it’s cheap and local.

Not the same guy.
 
I've had a look on the website and there doesn't appear to be much available .
Not usually this little left .
