Poor Quality Stiga clothing

[The Windmill]

Am I in the minority here ?
I have in the past bought various items Stiga of clothing i.e. track suit, shirt, shorts ect. and have found that they either fall to bits very quickly or logos come off in the wash. What are your thoughts on Table Tennis specific clothing ?
I for one will not be purchasing any further Stiga gear.

I buy very little specific Table Tennis clothing for a few reasons, one of which primarily is cost but the other which goes along with that is the inferior quality of the items, namely shirts and tracksuits. The Table Tennis world is no different to other sports in as much as the manufactures make these things in countries where they can pay low rates and buy cheaper standard products selling them on for a higher profit.

Or am i cynical?

In my opinion Butterfly clothing tends to be the best quality. The logos on the clothing is embroided rather than printed so there is no problem with it coming off in the wash. Over the last 10years I have been sponsored by Nittaku, Donic and now Butterfly and iam more than happy with the Butterfly clothing.

Agreed...............embroided is better than printed, saying that you tend to get what you pay for in relation to quality.
