Andy_P Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Echo that. What I will say though I was in the shop getting the old man's Father's Day gift and the stock did appear to have moved towards a better quality embroidered badge rather the "plastic" style. Having seen some of the stuff produced for the SRU I was initially happy that Macron got our gig but haven't bought a single Macron branded item from the shop since I saw those badges. May be more inclined now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted June 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 ...the stock did appear to have moved towards a better quality embroidered badge rather the "plastic" style. My fear is that it won't filter through to the replica shirts, as the quality of the embroidery on the club badge has been very poor on these items. I hope it changes, however, I don’t hold out much hope. When you see the quality that can be achieved on other clubs shirts it is easily achievable. The excellent quality of embroidery on other Macron shirts lead me to believe that the badge is being embroidered elsewhere. Either that or the original vector artwork being supplied to Macron is not up to standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzie Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Does Macron do the embroidery, or is that PSL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted June 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Does Macron do the embroidery, or is that PSL? That’s what I am not sure about. The embroidery on other clubs Macron products seem to be okay (or at least the ones I have seen in the flesh). However, the embroidery on our official badge has not been great.

underboyleheating Posted June 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 The best example of embroidery that I have seen recently was on the Fiorentina tops. It is superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mocked up a few designs on this thread using the polo style collar. The crew neck collar with the ‘beak’ is just wrong and I hope we avoid it like the plague.
