The Quality of Puma's Arsenal 2017-18 Kits is Shocking
The quality of Puma kits seems to lag behind Adidas' and Nike's. After Puma's Switzerland kit famously ripped apart at last year's Euro, now several Arsenal fans reported that the quality of their jersey is not as they expected from a brand like Puma.

Arsenal fan Jon Booth from Bolton complained to Puma on Twitter after the Emirates logo almost fully pulled off his Puma Arsenal 2017-18 third kit while also asking if other fans have experienced similar issues. And after just a few hours, two other Arsenal fans reported similar issues with their Arsenal jerseys. So it seems to be a problem on Puma's side and not an one-off error by the fan.
