Poor Quality from Castore, Example #172

Yet another example of Castore's questionable quality has surfaced, as pointed out by @GusCamisetas on Twitter.

More Questionable quality from Castore

Castore's quality issues have been well-documented here on Footy Headlines, much to the displeasure of some of our readers and commenters. But as long as these issues keep arising, we'll keep posting about them. Once again, just as it seems that they are preparing to launch their first ever football boots (which look surprisingly decent it must be said), another example has come to light.

Castore-sponsored club Aston Villa posted a photo of new signing Pau Torres on their social media accounts today, and followers were quick to highlight the shoddy stitching visible on the neckline. A couple of stitches had come undone, leaving a claret thread pulled out of place.

It's not exactly a tear in the fabric or a crest falling off after a single wash, but surely a brand new shirt - which was likely taken out of it's plastic packaging for the first time minutes before the photoshoot - should not be presenting this kind of wear and tear?
