£5 from every sale goes to DRF.

Which while I appreciate the sentinment, considering the shirt is £45 to buy and probably cost a tenner to make is not much in the grand scheme of things

Have to admit the cost put me off too.

Love the design & when I saw the £5 goes to Darby Rimmer Foundation I thought ok yes I'll be putting money into the clubt but that's decent. But I refuse to let them make £25+ off me.

Can anyone remember how much of the shirt cost went to the charity the last time they did this?

"all profits" in 2020. I'd be... surprised if £5 represented our profit margin on replica shirts.

The difference this time around is that we don't buy from the manufacturer so less profit margin than before

One would make a larger profit if one did not pay said supplier:-)

Possibly so, albeit supplier would be unlikely to be committing to making a special one off shirt if they were finding it difficult to obtain payments.....

Unless the supplier skipped the middle man who the issues of payment may be with. Allegedly. Or that any possible bill has finally been paid?

The shirt template is £14.40 on the pro direct website, printing is going to bring the cost up to about £20 so someone is creaming a profit somewhere either at STFC or pro-direct if only £5 is going to the charity.

Sorry you've misplaced me, which admittedly  isn't difficult, is it now suggested/alleged that someone who isn't the club is paying for things like merch?

Bearing in mind Pro Direct already make money selling that at £14.40 in the first place.
