City’s New Kits

This is part of the actual description when you click on the item in the Shop on the official website.....

Color, honor, 'this jersey 100% Manchester' and later on the 'city hustle'.

And this from a shirt (sorry, jersey) allegedly designed to celebrate Manchester. Come on City, you can do better.

Proper contradiction that. Unless they mean one of the Manchesters in the USA?

Colors, honor, jersey, hustle… sling it!
 
The shirts seem popular with the kids, i live an hour from Manchester, with the weather being nice i went out for a walk for half an hour, i saw six young lads with the new home shirt on, there has always been a few City fans locally but i have never seen anything like this.
 
Football shirts only cost cost around £7 for the materials, to pay the wages of the person making it and shipping costs.

At £50, that certainly would still be a decent mark-up.

We really are ripped off!

I guess that’s not the economic model. Puma pay City £60+ m per annum. They make a series of kits to cover as much of that £60m as they can… ultimately I suspect they may not cover their costs because City is possibility a loss leader for them. I agree the costs of kits is utterly ridiculous but City are trousering a huge annual sponsorship from our kit manufacture.
