Manufacturer instead of sponsor, they do good kits from the rugby league ones I have got 3 England ones all good quality and sizing, and with them working with Leeds rhinos for so long they have the correct blue and amber lol

before anyone mentions Kit C
the CEO was totally brought up to date with our past kit selection process from myself at the last meeting
weve already have the worst kit deal this millennium so nothing can top it unless we introduce a red kit with tik Tok written on it ;-)

I like the part where it says 'delivered on time' here's hoping.

Well that was rather short and perhaps not so sweet. Although I guess this seasons shirt is OK per se but for those who like the stripes its not quite what we hoped for. Really didn't turn out to be the best of moves by the club. Although I do think you have a better chance of shifting your stock if its from a manufacturer such as Umbro (along with Adidas, Nike, Puma and one or two others) that doesn't tend to help if the stock is limited, doesn't arrive on time and is in the wrong colour. Still no idea why we moved on from Errea, mind. I thought there shirts were quality.
So granted Oxen aren't a leading sports brand but looking to the benefits it provides this looks to be a good move. And good to read above that people are happy with whatever merchandise they have from them already. Lets hope this one works out...👍

They’re big into supplying for rugby teams, both union and league. Looking at what they’ve done for Lincoln and Donny they just look like rugby jerseys. Expect the same next season

Oxen? Hopefully we don't get a load of bull... Does sound something Oxford would knock up in house, I can't get away from that. However, according to their website they went with it because... THE CELTS VALUED OXEN FOR THEIR VIRILITY, LOYALTY, AND ENDURING PHYSICAL PRODUCTIVITY. IT’S A WORD THAT ENCOMPASSES EVERYTHING ABOUT OUR ELITE ATHLETES, OUR BRAND AMBASSADORS, AND ALL THE PEOPLE WEARING OUR SPORTSWEAR – WHETHER THEY’RE ON OR OFF THE PITCH.

On the subject of errea shirts I found their sizes to be completely different from other companies. I'm an xl in a footy shirt but errea I was having to get a triple x which looked like a dress it was so long. I sent it back in the end.

I'm an xl in a footy shirt but errea I was having to get a triple x which looked like a dress it was so long. I sent it back in the end. Understand about the sizing but I've always thought that at some point you'll get there in the end (even if it might take a couple of goes). Really liked the 2015/16 and 2018/19 shirts. I think they are the best we have had in recent years, I do like blue and amber with white trim...👍

Expect the same next season So theres no guarantee that the blue and amber stripes are vertical?..could be horizontal (hoops)😲😲😲😲...aren't rugby jerseys traditionally hoops?

Donny's kit has always been red and white hoops anyhow. Lincoln have the stripes so I think we'll be OK.

Donny have always been red and white, but not always hoops. Prior to the 1980’s they were just plain red, or white. Although hoops are not normally associated with football, there are some notable examples in the wider football world; Reading, QPR, Celtic, Sporting Lisbon, Queens Park and Rio di Janeiro's Flamengo to name a few.
I think many of our famous clubs may have played in hooped shirts in former times.

Looking at the Doncaster and Lincoln online shops it seems there are decent options including the home and away keeper's shirts which I'd a nice touch. All available in ladies as well (umbro may already do this and I haven't checked)

Anyone know if the grey 'camo' training gear the players wear is for sale? Apparently it’s been on sale in the pop up shop but all gone. From Sib. Should have said there’s loads of unopened boxes so may reappear, pop up open to end of season. Knee deep in Umbro Kit after nothing for two years.
