quality gear I certainly hope they don't go bust

i've got loads of kooga gear waterproof, big coat, training gear etc. the sports mill in batley sells it quite cheap. its quality gear and quite tough as well, and comfy to wear.

hope they dont go bust

Didn't they also make a batch with Salford badges on?!

people moan about the quality of our shirts, but to be honest we have sold 14,000+ of them for the past 2 seasons and are selling £1million+ merchandise a year now, so ISC can't be doing all that badly.

No, that one was doing the rounds, but it wasn't true. That would've been truly ridiculous.

Quote crucrucrusaders="crucrucrusaders" The home and away shirts are decent quality this year just the collars are a bit large. The jacket I have is good too, other than the fact it is a virtual copy of the one Huddersfield sell with a different badge. I found this out to my horror at Huddersfield earlier this season.'"

Quite a lot of the Kooga shirts ae very similar in design just different colours, Same is in evidence with a former Saints Shirt and the 1st Puma GB kit.

Quality wise the stuff Salford have from Kooga is miles ahead of the gear we used to get from ISC. And we've had problems with both suppliers doing late orders and sub standard products.

We used to suffer the ISC sizing lottery, but now we have our shirts made by nike which means others suffer for our shirts and our design is gash.

I think that as a family game clubs should look to local producers with ethical policies and the cost of manfacture going to the local workers.

Not sure who that would be in the UK though.

I thought that was so as to not confuse the Saints players.

As long you lot come out with a decent jersey instead of knicking the Wales RU design!

I have suggested that all the championship clubs should get together and set up their own brand , Best way would be to club together and purchase an existing local manufacturer and then source inital batch purchases from abroad for best economy and then bring in the ' prints ' from abroad for assembley over here



Group purchasing would mean that all the clubs would actually make some income out of it rather than at present where very few if any make a profit from merchandising
