West Ham’s new kit is according to manufactures adidas is not just a shirt.
“The claret and blue home strip features adidas performance fabrics, ClimaCool and Climalite technology, a mixture of heat and moisture controlling fabrics, ventilation channels and 3D fabrics which improve airflow to the skin and in key heat zones"
Two questions spring to mind from that, first off that seems like way to many uses of the word fabric for one sentence and secondly what are the key heat zones which don’t form part of the skin but the shirt improves the airflow to?
Is it just West Ham and/or adidas the come up with rubbish like this or do all clubs and kit makers do the same?
That said it does look good and from the leaked pictures the away kit will be even better.
is your teams kit made by magic elves?

Lots of clubs have there own variation of the same technology and tbh it has been around a while. Best on out of all though is Evertons who has shirts made out of recycled bottles!

"recycled bottles"
That beats the made up words of "ClimaCool and Climalite"

Football shirts are no more than T-shirts. They're hyped up with all this nonsense to make them sound like something special.
Stick the club's badge on them, and their price then increases 10-fold.

I remember the good old days when you could pop into Lillywhites and buy the previous season's West Ham top for £10.
That was before the ridiculous decision to limit sales of tops to the club shop. I still do not see the logic in that.
