Some have said that they are "made" by a local firm , but are actually made under sub-contract in the Far East by an unnamed company (Vincent Tan`s?). Other website references have them down as "designed and supplied" by Cosway Sports , which is a Vincent Tan company.
Is anyone on here able to clarify what the actual position is , and whether any manufacturing profit is made from them by VT on top of ny retail profit on their sale?

Classic Sports (local Cardiff kit manufacturer) make the kits, but I believe that Cosway is one of Tan's companies and the name "Cosway Sports" was used instead for sponsorship. At least that's what I think anyway.
