Is the badge a stick on transfer Pete or sewn on the shirt?

Machine sown onto the other side mate, lovely shirt too but they were going fast as the shop was packed today. .
Whether you personally like the shirt or not the news is that with two hours to go it is the best opening day for shirt sales (with the exception of the C150th ones) ever and with season ticket renewals going faster than ever before (over 3000 done) the Club are doing really well at present. As we hear so much from the gripers and because they get little praise, a well done to the retail and marketing teams, I'd say.

Looking forward to getting my shirt, intrigued by the lyrics to Old Faithful in the neck band. Sounds like a good move to go with the XL. Don't like the new home shirt at all, but great move to give the traditionalists this retro option.

I'm in slight disagreement. I've been waiting a good few years for them to re-release one of these so maybe I was expecting too much but I tried it on today and don't think the quality of the shirt is worth £55. The collar looks scruffy and doesn't even look white compared to the white hoops. The thickness of the cotton is substandard compared to a couple of NRL retro jerseys I have too. The badge is really good though and a nice touch with old faithful inside. I'll probably still end up getting one but ended up walking away a bit disappointed when I went to get one today.

Not like. Not much option when you live in Leeds. Hopefully I won't be disappointed.
I was in the club shop today and very impressed with the new range of training and leisure gear. The hoodies and t-shirts were much better than the previous styles we've had with far fewer stupid slogans slapped right across them. I was also quite impressed with the new shirts having seen them in real life after disliking them in the photos. I really wanted to like the retro shirt but the cream collar with white hoops looks a bit daft plus I'd rather one with short sleeves. I may still get one but at £55 a pop I'll think about it for a while
