If known to have a few beers to give the well established beer belly. I would recommend in these days of the tighter fitting top, at least 2 sizes bigger than usual.
Can’t say I am impressed. Nearly £90 for the wee mans kits and absolutely nothing since
Seeing people getting emails tonight I was hoping to have received one but still nothing yet.
I will leave it until tomorrow afternoon before sending them an email chasing it up,as I said earlier I am not too upset about the delay but I will think twice about pre ordering again as it seems pointless really.
The pre order was more about getting the wee fella the strip straight away but it looks as though I will be getting it later in the week when the shops will have them anyway.I'd hardly say it's pointless. They had 50k in the first batch. It ensures you have one of the tops in that batch.
It's not like they have stolen your money. They will come this week at some point. What's the rush?
I got the email at 6.02pm.
Order #2515.

With the old deal ending on the 31st and the 1st falling on a Saturday hasn't helped matters as the Sunday was going to be an extra day's wait.Order 1834 got email ready to dispatch, not wanting to moan but if it was a video game being launched and arriving 3/4 days after launch date it would be disgraceful, tops should have been delivered on the 1st, they have had the order for a month so they knew the demand.
It’s an absolute joke that they ran a special MyGers only preorder campaign and the tops haven’t even been dispatched by the time the away top is available in their brick and mortar stores.
That and the Sports Direct nonsense at the start are two massive black marks against Castore now.
It's a 2 day delivery. You'll be looking at Tue/We'd I reckon.Hermes e-mail at 2.58pm today for me, I was order 25370 - hoping for a delivery tomorrow.
I don’t think the pandemic comes into it mate. It’s the expectation created by marketing gimmicks like ‘pre-ordering’ thats the problem. They could have avoided it all by just waiting untill the strips were ready and then putting them on sale normally. Instead they chose to make people think they were getting something exclusiveWe're still in the middle of a worldwide pandemic where supply chains have struggled to cope with demand due to many outside factors and this place is ready to go apeshit because some people won't get a new T-shirt tomorrow.
They won't have been able to send them early as the Ashley merch contract was still in place.Launching a pre-order and you might get it before the shops is a disgrace. August 1st was said so everyone should have had their tops getting delivered on that day, I'm not trying to be an @rsehole but the whole point of pre-order is that it guarantees you your strip on the day it's released.
FFS common sense would have said that if you can't guarantee all strips being delivered by the 1st as you will be sending them out the previous day, start sending them out 3/4/5 days earlier, it's not rocket science. Or if the Friday was the earliest they could have sent them out - don't promise people they will get it on the Saturday, push the release date back 3/4/5 days.

Yeah, it should have been moved to delivery from Monday 3rd August instead.well in that case they could have moved the release back a few days, failing that then they could have not bothered with a pre-order with a delivery date of 1st Aug.

I’ve seen photos of people wearing the top they bought in Castore’s London store.I wasn't aware the new gers store was open already. Isn't it this Coming Thursday?
Somebody on twitter got the shirt from the Castore shop in Liverpool and said the sizing is the same as the Hummel shirtsThey said normal fit, but if you prefer loose fit go size up.
YesWhen is the away top available to just walk in to the shop and buy it?
I'm a gold tier member of mygers but didn't get a ticket for the opening day of the shop, will it be available on the Friday?
"massive black marks" lolIt’s an absolute joke that they ran a special MyGers only preorder campaign and the tops haven’t even been dispatched by the time the away top is available in their brick and mortar stores.
That and the Sports Direct nonsense at the start are two massive black marks against Castore now.

Order #8165 - no email from Castore yet, if I go into the original confirmation email and click on the tracking number, it takes me to a Hermes page showing 'order placed' so assuming it's not been packed and shipped yet.
They did promise they would arrive August 1st, but could have easily said, they will start arriving August 1st, and we could have had no complaints.
Same here,I have an order number but it’s long with letters and numbers.think they are using a different company for overseas dispatch.Where is everyone seeing their order #? I don’t appear to have one in my confirmation but maybe it’s different for overseas orders.
