Calling all Gold Coast SUNS supporters! We need your help designing our 2016 clash guernsey.

We all know how important a guernsey is to the team, so we would like your input on how we go into battle next season.

The club has come up with two designs, but we need more. We are searching for two more designs from our supporters.

Then, the top four guernsey designs will be voted upon by our supporters to select our 2016 clash guernsey.

There will be prizes awarded to the two selected designs and the winning designers will be presented with the guernsey they create.

Funny considering the old clash was their best jumper.

 

[akkaps]

Would like to see a blue one, but yellow would be fine as well. They need to stay away from the white as much as possible.

It think they onyl wear their clash jumper against the NSW / Queensland teams.

 

[Dylan8]

The annoying thing is the white still half clashes with the Swans and yellow doesn't whatsoever

 

[Scotty_222]

i like the one touk is wearing

 

[Cainozz]

Since when has grey become one of the Suns' colours??? Yellow/Gold FTW!

"Design cannot clash with any other team's home guernsey, in particular the Adelaide Crows, Brisbane Lions, GWS Giants, Hawthorn, and Sydney Swans."
The home jumper doesn't even clash with those two sides.

Both guernseys in the OP would be heaps better without the gc badge in the middle.

On another note, how did BLK get their guernsey to be whiter than the shorts?

Normally they're the other way around like Adelaides dull white clash and bright white shorts, Richmonds black shorts against the greyish 'black'

I actually rather like that V design. Wonder if a rebranding around that idea could work for all their kits.

 

[MKMatty]

One on the left with a red base would be a much better home jumper than the "McDonald's fries packet" they currently wear.

Too early to rebrand, imo.

Lighting for the Suns picture and I there's a hint of grey/silver towards the bottom of the Crows jumper. The top of it is about as white as the shorts.

Same actually. Well the idea is good. Add a few extra hoops and of course taking away the logo would be preferable and really help it out. But white, yellow, and sky blue screams Gold Coast the place far more than any other strip they've had. It's a light look, kinda summery, and goes with all those other GC sports teams.

Saying that the one on the left is sah bad. Looks like a Super League rugby top or something. Barry Crocker.

Also, we have some good designers and people who can use them on professional looking templates and programs... can someone on this board sell their soul and actually get theirs produced? The fluke of a really cool, outdated logo-using, board-designed Saints jumper is still bizarre and cool but very unlikely to happen again. I want someone to chuck swirls and gradients and all sorts of faux pas into a design just so another hole can go in the belt. Or another notch on the bed post. Probably not the bed post. Jumpers aren't girls.

Thoughts?

I don't have the skills to do it, but I wouldn't mind seeing a suns mock up, home, away clash, which is based on stripes like Collingwood/hawks/north

so home would be red, with yellow stripes.
away would be yellow with red stripes.
and clash would be blue, with two red stripes and one yellow stripe (or something like that)

be good to have a traditional strip, with existing colours however.

an alternative would be horizontal stripes, so like geelong/Adelaide, but same ideas as for my verticals.

if someone does me up some I will email the club and credit the designer! plus add them to the suns board again with credits.

I still think the perfect look for the Suns is to have the bursts coming out of the top of the central logo (seeing as they are insistent on keeping it). You could mix and match a number of combos from that that would look awesome, and I know some people on here have done some mock ups using that concept.

how the hell did you edit this? or even download it?

 

[El_Scorcho]

The hooped one here would be pretty terrific. Cool design.

There's a link in the OP, and you can open it in Photoshop.
I can try to get a Paint friendly version, if that helps.

Kind of reminds me of this.

yeah if you could champ

I reckon it would be pretty funny if we could come up with the most obnoxious design we could and just see if it makes it. Although we probably should enter actual designs we want to see...

 

[Dylan8]

Something like this? I've wanted Gold Coast to use yellow/blue as their away colours like Arsenal, and they're open to a hooped design, clearly.

A shame the hideous logo has to remain. Oh and this template is ghastly.
