It does seem odd that, to all intents and purposes, they're near enough the same price for a 6 year old's as an adults. Especially when you bear in mind that of the difference in the prices paid by the punter, most of that will be the government's cut; the VAT. (In that adult's clothes have VAT at 17.5%, whereas children's clothes are zero rated.)

It does look like someone is ripping someone off somewhere.
How do the club justify 64p difference between the 2 shirts I wonder.

Maybe a club representative would like to explain how the 2 shirts only cost 64p difference to make?

:) Have you e-mailed Lew at the stanleystore to ask why ????????? be interested to know my self what the reply is :)

There appears to be little difference in price between the adult and junior sizes of the shirt it is based on and the embroidery, badges and logos will be the same for both shirts so i would expect the difference to be similar plus VAT on the Adult one.

Unfortunatley childrens clothes can cost as much as adult clothes for a retailer to buy. We have certain baby hoodies which cost us £2 more than an adult one. Blame the manufacturers not the club. In actual fact Stanley shirts are cheap compared to most other clubs.

Re: www.wearestanley.co.uk

:) I spoke to lew today and he explained the pricing of the shirts to me!! Here gose what he said,well what i can remember.. Basically the cost per shirt is very similar but the problem lies in the embroidery, the machines run on templates and the stitching is severly difficult on the smaller sizes and is manually fed into the machine whereby a larger adult size is easier due the size of the stitching target. Thus we incur a heavier embroidery cost for junior shirts than adult ones. :) I know with having kids of my own that things an't cheap and as lancsdave said in his post kids stuff is sometimes dearer to buy than adults,i do think that we're getting replica shirts £4 or £5 pounds cheaper than at the start of last season think i payed £39.99 for my home shirt now its £35.99 we're cheaper than other football clubs for what they sell there replica shirts for:)

Re: www.wearestanley.co.uk

I tell you what... the current offer of 25% off kids replica shirts made it far too tempting to resist get one for little Maddie (I suppose I should update my avatar; that's her the day she was born! she's rather bigger now...!).

And the money saved on the shirt itself has been put to good use; paying for her name to go on the back! :)

I was going to get myself one as well, but I'm holding off on that in case one of the forthcoming offers is for adult shirts...
