    Seeing how Nike has basically laid-off/fired everyone in Canada, I can't see Nike supplying the kit.

    There is a large manufacturer/brand out there with deep roots in Canada...

    I hope you're right! But can they really make professional-quality
    football kits? I know they make decent t-shirts and warm-up suits,
    but climacool-type jerseys?

    Unless you mean any of Umbro, Pony, Puma, Lotto, Russell?

    Thanks Regs, got my hopes up.

    Let's see now: Adidas, Nike , Puma - top 3 in Canadian sports apparel.
    Others: Umbro, Kappa, Lotto, etc.... hmmm, JDG's friend J-Squared?

    Not everyone. I know someone who's working at Nike in TO. (not retail either) lucky mofo she is.

    Anyways, I think Roots would be good. Would mean they'd actually have product available w/o having to jump through hoops!

    Frankly, I'm tired of Adidas.
    Agreed. One thing I noted about the Gold cup is that the carribean sides dont have Addidas. And they have the most interesting and distinctive attire ( eg.: Jamaica, Haiti, Guadeloupe). Whereas Others ( espacially Honduras and El salvador) have predominantly addidas and have that ultra bland white jersey white shorts combo. You have to have shorts of diffenent colour from the Jersey IMO.

    there is an incredible amount of blandness to Addidas.

    I propose we start a "Draft Roots" movement!

    That would be very cool. A Canadian company (albeit owned by two ex-pat Yanks) but hey, that'd be neat! Seriously! I mean that!!!

    Next up, Bata to make our boots! [)] (I don't mean that!)
