Purple isn't different enough from a chiefly blue kit if you ask me. Agreed. I'm surprised Kilmarnock have been allowed three fundamentally "dark" kits. Their 2nd kit (all navy) and 3rd kit (purple) are not very different. That said Hibs also wore purple against us in blue a couple of years back and nobody batted an eyelid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Morton have quoted pandemic supply and delivery issues, amongst other things, as a reason for a delay in our new kits being available to the public. Currently don't have a release date, just that they 'hope' for them to be available for pick up by the end of August. Are we alone in that, or have other clubs had delays? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thistle don’t seem to have had any delays. Am I right in thinking that Morton do their own kits, rather than through O’Neills or Joma or whatever? That could be the issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was slow in getting the away top and the short sleeved men's strip went out of stock pretty quickly. Every time I phone to ask if they're getting more they tell me there'll be more in stock in two weeks since the start of July. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly not. Morton have claimed that particular award by making their own Bobby Basic kit. The judges deemed that to be the ultimate example of tin pot behaviour. It could only have been topped by players having to bring their own shorts and socks to games (same colours if possible, but not essential). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you can keep telling yourself that if you want, but the consensus is quite clear that Morton's top is an absolute stunner and your club's efforts are a fucking nick M8. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Picked up our new home top the day, absolute belter in the flesh, best we've had in years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha. It doesn’t detract from the fact that it is a cobbled together effort made by Margaret and Dawna from Fabric Offcutz, (just off of Greenock High Street). As nice as the kit may be, making your own is the very essence of tin pot behaviour. Probably best not to dwell on it though, particularly as you seem to have made peace with the fact. In terms of ours, I am not a fan of the home one. The print at the bottom of the back is unnecessary. The away and third kits are good though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Our kits are not really made in house. They're made by VSN Sports, based in Glasgow, using our own branding and designed by fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fundamentally though, the home strip is not “dark”, but a glorious new version of the famous blue and white stripes. So having a navy away strip is completely different. We should have worn our home kit at Palmerston. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M0rtonfc Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) Our new home strip looks very smart on the players but as pointed out by other posters the company we deal with are absolute haddies, some of the strips have badges out of place, delays in stock, the list is endless! As nice as the strips are on the players they just feel a bit cheap, I've got last seasons, it doesn't feel as good as other football tops I've got. It would be good if we could ditch this mob and go with someone like Macron, they seem to be on the ball with strips and actually put effort into it, Arbroath's home strip being a perfect example! It would just be nice to have an actual fit for purpose kit manufacturer rather than this tin pot outfit!
