ISC are back in business a day later, they have supplied all gear to us and you, so there is no problem and will be back next season so we have been told. If this had happened in October and gear not been shipped from china etc, then it would have been a different story.
Don't want Nike if ISC do go belly up. Their record for employing subcontractors(sometimes the stuff is made in peoples homes according to some reports I read) & paying workers really low wages is notorious. Average wage in the South Asia/China/Indonesia area where about 70% of the footwear is made is approx $2 A DAY!
Adidas also makes a lot of their gear in Indonesia & China.
Frankly a lot of the bigger well know sportswear companies make huge profits using cheap unprotected labour forces in these countries but the clubs who buy the gear in for their fans make relatively little mark up in comparison.

Why don't we just play in skins?
The replica shirts would be dirt cheap and should look very fetching on some of our female supporters

Samurai make some quality stuff. For example, I got a t-shirt from a shop fitting company about six years ago. They sponsored a RU team so the work shirts were made by the same company as the kits. This t-shirt is still very wearable.....and gets some hammer at work.
Jason Critchley (GB Allstars) has just got a job at Samurai and is currently working on a deal to get Willie Manu (really ) and Danny Haughton headguards. If ISC did have problems......Then I'm sure Jason could step up and proudly supply Hull FC with a really well made kit and on time!
