Those are a great fit, looks better than Cotton On's women's cut.

It looks like ISC still struggle with single vs double number widths. I remember watching Port where the #2 was crazy wide (but normal proportions) while the double digit #2s looked very stretched and skinny.

Same again I suppose. Look how wide Thommo's #5 is.

[EDIT] Now with pics:

I'm pretty sure BLK were a break away company of KooGa?

 

[Sub_Zero]

The fact that the pies having ISC is weird. Would have thought they would have landed a global brand. ASICS or NB would have been sick.

Wish we went back to Adidas. If not Adidas would of been happy with New Balance or Puma. Everything about Collingwood these days seems cheap and crap

nope

 

[TheLoungeLizard]

nope

It's the rebranded arm of the Australian branch of KooGa, but I thought I read that by the time of the receivership they were a different company?
hence why the quality all went down and from new factories?

The factory is in Fiji. Blk are global, blk is a branch of Wrs sporting group which is world rugby specialists

Are WRS connected anymore to KooGa though?

I could be wrong (believe it or not) but I thought I read that it was a different company and that's where the problems came from.

Well they changed the name kooga globally to blk as they wanted to tap into more markets other than just rugby.
I believe their issues started when they went too big too quickly and were diving into multiple high profile teams in multiple codes.
Last year hey also had the issue of the tsunami in Fiji which damaged their factories and halted production.
They are still doing a fair bit but have pulled it back into just rugby. Still sponsoring the rebels and the reds.
They still owe Adelaide something like 700k in sponsorship. 200k to the Gold Coast as well

 

[Groupie_]

Surely they will never be allowed back into the AFL again

Someone able to make a mockup of Collingwood guernsey using NB template?

ISC using the old faded BLK material?

 

[lmach]

Minor stuff but I like how the white, blue and red of the SGIO logo on the jumper matches with the AFL logo on the white shorts. Too bad Bankwest will be on the front when it's worn with white shorts during the season.

The company that once distributed KooGa in Australia started BLK.

Kooga is a uk company off memory

Blk was the branding the aussie business rebranded as when they decided to go it alone

Thompson wears his guernsey tight af though. I reckon that is what stretches the number.
