Title: The New Squadwear
Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, July 28, 2005, 11:39:01
Looks quite nice particularly the T-shirt and track top, which would be handy for running and couch athletics.

Bit unsure about this Lonsdale brand though, bit of a blast from the past.  Is it considered a Top Chavester label or more Kirby Lonsdale (www.kirkbylonsdale.co.uk)?

Not sure about  shirt this season mind that neck looks like a vicars shirt minus the dog collar.  Anyonme got one and what's it like in the flesh?

I've been looking forward to the squadwear being released more than the replica kits. The tee-shirts look a bit Chav but the track top and polo are a little more subtle.
Think I might end up getting the track-top.

I bought my two year old niece and my 5 day old nephew a new Swindon kit each on Monday, cost over £50 for both but looked well cool, my niece loved it!!  Two town fans in the making!!

Trackkie top looks good.

Lonsdale is notorious in Holland, it's the choice of clothes for neo-nazi's and is banned in a lot of places.

Great  :?

Ace

I'll shave my head then and look the part.

It's growing on me I must say.  Still undecided on the shirts though.

Has the 3rd choice white kit now out of circulation or is it still going to be used?

That has to be favourite of recent seasons.

I guess the white one isnt being used anymore seen as our new away kit, is ermmm white...

Still against teams who wear red & white (Brentford...) we'll need a third kit again possibly

And Bornmuff! W@nkers!

I hate the way Newcastle wear black and white and get away with a black or white away kit every year!

I think a blue 3rd strip may be in order this year!

I quite like the polo shirt, but the other t-shirt looks a bit chavvy I must admit.

Lonsdale is considered a tad chavvy, but only if you go around wearing it with pride. I have Lonsdale shoes but only because they are comfy and suitable! Don't go for brands me!

Lonsdale was very poular in Italy when i was there last year.  The locals were even clamouring for fakes in markets!  :shock:

I have the away shirt, and it is one of my favourite Swindon shirts of all time.

Seriously?! I think it's one of the least pleasant away shirts we've had, The white is good, but lose the blue, make it black, as we can't really have an all white kit.

They have both grown on me. The away one looks good in pics of the games it's been worn in.
Still undecided over the white sleeves on the hoome shirt though. Can't see it carrying on for more than this year.
