Pay your tribute to Ronnie Clayton, Bill Eckersley & Bobby Langton amongst others by wearing our shirt (complete with reversed halves & halved sleeves!) with extreme pride. 🤍💙

All the details are HERE - we are taking orders until 2nd September so don't miss out - order now & be ready for the anniversary match at Ewood.

Having seen the shirt in real life and dealing with clothing as a full time profession, I'd like to endorse the quality of the garment.

The colours, the collar stitching, the cuffs, hem stitch is all of a high standard.

Sign me up for one Ian!

I’m clearly biased but they are quite superb. Put a GANT logo on it & that sells for £150 😁

Damn, I should've picked one of the earlier ones up for 25 quid, was it? This is a bit out of my range right now. Looks very beautiful!

These are very different pieces. A lot more work involved in manufacturing these. I’m not exaggerating to say the quality is up there with Ralph Lauren Polo & GANT…👌

 

By way of comparison…

It's true, you can see the quality, even from the photos. 🌹

I love the look of these and have ordered me one and one for my son, for his up coming 35th birthday. Im sure he will be delighted with it.

It makes sense commemorating the 150th this way, instead of what the club are offering and we will wear them with pride.

Great effort to all involved.

Is this available in short sleeve too?

Surely you could throw in some complimentary scissors.

Roll ‘em up like Tommy Briggs used to.

No, they sold out a long time ago.

That's a good shout that. Going for the real 1950's style.

I used to buy  “Gant “ clothes when they were made in the USA back in the day. They were expensive but good quality. Now they are normally made in the far East. Still expensive but the quality isn’t what it was. I’ll bet that your shirts are better quality. The 1960’s one I bought certainly was.  I’m not really up for buying one of the 1950’s shirts but if you get stuck with any I’ll buy one to support what I think a really good cause.

I can send you some complimentary newspapers to use as shin pads. It’ll have to be “ The Guardian “ though.

Ordered mine and can't wait for it.

If the quality is anything like the 60s shirts then it's well worth it.

Thanks again for your support - they are terrific shirts & frankly after seeing the dismal 150th stuff in the club shop yesterday it’s a pity we can’t sell them in there…

Nah, better that they've got nothing to do with it. I wouldn't want to give them the opportunity to claim any responsibility for something that took care and effort.

I have never been able to fault the quality of BRFCS shirts. I can’t wait for this one.

BTW I am really enjoying the new look of the site.

It’s kind of by accident but yes…it’s cleaner 😉 @StubbsUK
