Nike kit deal ends. MOD-EDIT Big Hoop news included

Just announced Dryworld as our new technical kit suppliers from next season...

 

From the website
http://thekitman.co.uk/2016/04/qpr-announce-ten-year-kit-deal-with-dryworld/

It sounds as though the 2016-17 QPR kits have already by designed and signed off as Dryworld CEO Lee Hoos said, “The kits for next season are fantastic and we’re very confident the fans will be happy with them.

“We’re fully aware of what the fans want, with the Hoops going all the way round, and we’re excited about unveiling them at the end of June.”

 

Hooray,don't know what they'll look like,but they can't do a worse job than this season's ****e! At least we're gonna get hoops that go all the way round.

 

Wasn't the Nike deal worth a lot of money to us - 6/7th best in PL or something? I'm guessing Nike cancelled it and we now have a much worse deal in monetary terms?

 

Dryworld - never heard of them. They sound like a laundry company.

Hopefully, the club understand what the fans want and they finally produce a shirt the majority of fans want. I haven't liked our shirts for a number of years. Hopefully the whole range of club branded clothing improves. I thought it would under Nike but it was complete rubbish.

 

Apparently they're a Canadian Company, here's a link (hope it works) to their website, the blog section talks about the Rangers deal....

I do hope this is a journalists error...otherwise!!!!

 

At first read this quote almost sounds as if Lee Hoos is in a conflict on interest:-

Obviously they want to get their brand out there in Europe, so as early adopters we easily obtained our preferred shirt design, that never seemed to be happening with Nike. Let's all hope it's a nice shirt that we are all proud to wear.

Agree mate that's what's happened no matter how they want to sell it.

 

Likely a case of poor journalism - I believe the intent is that the shirt design has already been signed off under the Dryworld brand, and QPR CEO Lee Hoos is quoted as saying..........

 

Don't care what brand it is as long as it got hoops all the way around, better known as proper hoops. AND looks smashing. This is bloody brilliant news from a fans perspective imo.

“We are delighted to partner with a team with the reputation and heritage of QPR. When we identified potential partnerships, QPR stood out because of the core values and principles it imbues whilst sharing in both the on-field and off-field ambitions that we as a brand wish to support. We look forward to supporting the club’s on-field performance with our groundbreaking and pioneering technologies in the years ahead” said Craig Stewart, DRYWORLD’s Director of Global Operations.

Marketing speak gone wild. Hope the shirts are nice.

 

I agree as long as we have proper hoops that are thick and no stupid extras i am happy

 

Yawn. All the shirts look fine to me, this season's included. No doubt next season's will be. If we play decent football and get promoted I wouldn't care much what they wore beyond blue and white hoops, or close, at home.

 

As in that CAIXA #10 photo, hopefully they don't use patches for the #'s over the hoops.

 

Perhaps she is really a false #9?
