Waited I the line since 10:20, when I finally got in at 11:50 they're sold out of Long Sleeve XL. I'm not saying the folks who physically queued should get priority but there should be separate stock set aside for in store vs online. And they don't know when it'll be back in stock. There is separate stock for online orders. They don’t remove one from a hanger in the shop each time someone orders online. I would say that they should prioritise in person sales by having more in the shop for sale to meet the demand of those queuing. This was destined to sell out quickly during initial release phase, as it’s a thing of beauty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My worry is they’ve taken my money for the long sleeved effort…what happens if folk in that queue buy all the long sleeved efforts in the shop? Do I lose out? Do they have a batch of ‘online’ stock?

Midloth_Iain Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Looks like Aston Villa (formed 1874 as well) also went to their City Chambers for the photo shoot.

Not easy. Just think that keeping aside 200 rather than 100 (or whatever) in shop rewards more of the folk who queue up. Queues all good for marketing, too! But I bought online as most will, as you say. The key for popular strips like this is that the club are able to replenish stocks quickly to take advantage of the initial surge of demand.

PhoenixHearts Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 In regards to the people saying to go a size up: is that in comparison to the other current Umbro kits or are you saying that as someone who hasn't bought a Hearts kit in years/ in comparison to a Nike shirt etc? Because I find Umbro has run about half a size smaller since about 2018 and I've already been sizing uk since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked someone's earlier suggestion that they made the goalie kit a maroon negative image of the 3rd kit. I know goalie kits don't sell in massive numbers but that one would have. Yeah, I just felt it could do with its own landing page that's more visible and prominent on the Hearts Direct home page. Make it more of a 'thing'. If you go in the home page now it has the 150 section in the menu but you can only access the sub menus rather than everything on one page. Might be different on a desktop. Guessing you got that link from a search? Could also do with tagging the third kit in that section too, even though they're sold out 😄 Anyway no biggie. Its all there if you take the time to look and they might look to promoteit differentlyas the 150 anniversary approaches. Certainly a better shop offering than what we had a few years back.
