2014 Puma Range

[AFC3000]

Only thing I rate as half decent for 2014 is the grey tshirt. Everything else is average - last years merch better by a bit, hoody decent. It really isn't hard to design something 'normals' might like to wear.

Looks better larger than the smaller images we saw earlier. West Coast are also Puma sponsored and usually have a much larger range of stuff that is non player replica type things. https://shopdesq.imgstg.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=main&OrgID=1753

Not sure what its like at this time of year or how much of that stuff was Puma branded or from somewhere else.

geeze, all I can think of is what does ACF stand for... dropped the ball on that part of the design IMO

Would wear. Very good.

 

[Hank93]

Name jumpers are up. Only the three players available.

 

[The Big Sauce]

Would pay good money for one that says 'Kedge'

Also it's pretty telling that we aren't offering one for our Captain

 

[brucetiki]

Assuming Crowmania will actually have any of these in stock

Not really. Means they got something right for change and didn't waste money printing 50 guernseys they won't sell.

 

[Crowked]

They are. Both of them.

 

[The Big Sauce]

I want to buy our reserves guernsey more than anything in the store right now.

Possibly the first sign that a new clash jumper will be coming next year.

well we can only hope.

personally I wouldn't care how bad it looked if it was only a "clash" guernsey. Too bad its very much an "every game we don't play at home" guernsey. The hoops and white shorts win matches, that's just a fact.

They'd have to give me $100 to take one off their hands.

Wouldn't wear it either.

Hey H, what do you think. We use our SANFL guernsey design as our away one for the next two years, and then that way, our fans who love it, get the chance to actually own a copy in a default version? Or will the SANFL not like our loop hole there?

 

[Owen_AFC97]

Crowmania are selling our home and away guernseys for $95 now. Too bad I bought mine last Sunday for $108 ohwell it's only $13 in the end.

They were (originally) happy with us wearing our current AFL away guernsey.

Another change of apparel supplier coming up perhaps?

Another change of apparel supplier coming up perhaps?

Would love if we could secure a deal with Adidas again. Always loved our guernseys when they designed them. As for the rest of our apparel, I think it looks very cheap.

Except for this one I hope...



Anyway, could mean anything, they usually clear out the current stock at the end of the year no matter what, then make just enough changes to be able to announce the next years version as something new.

Don't think so this is only our second year with Puma. They probably just want to make some more sales that's all.

 

[Crow-eater]

Doubt it. More likely they're changing the clash and bringing out a new/updated design of the home guernseys next year.

Fair call on that one, the neck is horrendous. I loved this one though.

that would be a good theory if they hadn't been selling 2013 styled guernseys all this year already.

you can only buy guernseys with this collar:

but all the 2014 guernseys that the players actually wear have collars like this:

I know its a bit fussy, but I still think its reasonable to expect "this years" guernsey to be the same as this years.

West Coast are also selling the 2013 collar. It definitely has something to do with Puma.

Correct.

My assumption is we'll get a new clash for 2015, and the 2015 replicas will actually have the updated collar, unlike this years.

It should be noted though that in the original announcement the length of the deal with Puma was never announced, so I don't know when the partnership runs out.
