Portsmouth Home Goalkeeper Kit 2007/08

Advantages: Protection from breaks and increased control
Disadvantages: Can be a bit strange at first if not used to fingersaves but easy to adapt to!

...I thought I would write this review as I have had a great experience with this product. I'm no professional, though play football at a respectable level and consider myself to be a promising young goalkeeper. I had never bothered with fingersave gloves before I broke my index finger in a game last year. I decided following it's recovery that I should invest in a pair of fingersave gloves. I must admit I had my reservations about these in particular with respect to mobility. I thought the bending of the fingers would be restricted too much but I was wrong. I invested in a pair of these and they have been brilliant, no problems whatsoever. If there is anyone out there not wearing fingersave gloves, then invest in a pair, because you only need to break a finger that refuses to heal properly and you've got problems. These gloves...

Advantages: Nice lively change to design
Disadvantages: Pricey, but all football shirts are!

...Released for the 07/08 this Carlisle United home kit features a slightly different design to previous kits. Carlisle United, a club associated with Blue as their colours have had a plain blue top (not including sleeves or trim here) for around the last 5, 6 years, but this new kit, made by Le cog Sportif took a slightly different approach. This kit features three colours, With a blue area on the left, with white next to that and with the red trim (its an extended trim) on the right hand side. These sections are cut diagonally and run all the way down into the shorts aswell. The sleeves are blue. The kit therefore is not Symettrical colour wise like most kits, but personally I think it looks great. This is the second season currently that is being worn, and I think it will go on for a further year as the United home kit before being... Read review

Advantages: great price looks and comfort
Disadvantages: last seasons shirt (but little difference to the new one)

.... This shirt fits really well and comes in a range of sizes from kids and even baby shirts up to adults from sizes small up to extra and 2 times extra large I think. There are also shirts for women as well. I find the shirt I chose which was in medium fits really well and is absolutely perfect and is really comfortable and there are no bits where like on some shirts bits of stitching can becoming rather irritating. Price: This actual shirt is the one from last season 2007/2008, but there is very little difference from this to the new shirt so I went for this one. The only real difference seems to be that the white lining is now gold. As a result of buying the old shirt I was able to get it much cheaper as it was on sale on the Portsmouth website for half price. It costs £17.49 rather than £34.99 This is also much cheaper than...
