Breaking News New Third Kit launched

[Tommy2holes]

Am sure they do but need a XXXL. Which is slightly depressing.

True but they do come up 2 sizes too small

 

[BoyWonder2]

The sponsor aside, that was a fine kit.

I loved Insure and Go as a sponsor

Slightly veering off topic but Gary Lockett used to be CEO of Insure and Go, didn't he? Is that how his connection with Southend began? Interested to know about that.

He went to Westcliff high School for boys so will have grown up with the club

 

[The General]

I’m most likely to get this, sky blue always looks good on me!

 

[thenobster]

How about we have only one away shirt, yellow sleeves, top half front white, bottom half front red, back sky blue.. no colour clashes then and everyone’s fave colour included. Numbers in that gif awful pink and a picture of the pier woven down one third at the front

Exactly. Normally a XL in Nike, Puma, Hummel etc but not in our Italian style kits!

He was fan long before his Insure and Go days

Yeah, just been made aware that he is a Southend lifer through and through.

Would like to see one of the fan podcasts groups do an episode with him. I imagine he has some right old stories from the previous 'regime'. How much of that he would divulge I don't know.

John Watson has also been a Shrimper for decades.

I think you mean he will have grown up with the club despite having attended WHSB. Blues supporters were very much the minority when I was at school and I very much look forward to the day when they form the majority.

 

[IloveShrimp]

Not for me. Colour is wishy washy I also prefer a shirt with a collar for those cold winter matches. Tbh I think all the kits are meh this season.

Been and bought this morning, really nice

 

[Microbe]

Sold out of 3xl shirts when we got to the shop at 1.45 today

 

[SHRIMPERPETER]

Are the 3rd shirts coming up different to the first two as I kept reading they came up small but I managed to get the 3rd Saturday one size smaller than when I last bought a Macron kit the PG one and it fits lovely?

I bought the home 2 sizes up and did the same for the 3rd kit, both seem to be similar in sizing
