Hawks should bring back the yellow socks!

Also reckon brown number with yellow back looks more classy

I prefer our red hot cross bun gurnsey from 99-01 as our away/clash

Honestly would prefer this as the base kit, not like our tri-panel design has brought much success...

 

[RoyBoy17]

Whilst we do wear a kit in the Fitzroy colours, we don't really do much to honour the original Bears at all, and their history is just as traumatic for those of us that grew up loving the Bears brand and then had it taken away from us. Considering what the brand achieved in the short tenure against the odds, it would be awesome if we did a bit more. Unlike the Suns, GWS, Crows, Port and WC, we were setup to essentially fail from their inception, yet somehow still made finals in our final year as Bears.

I would love if we did the Qclash kits (as I've stated before) in Bears colours/an homage to their design-work. I've also proposed we wear the red kit with blue shorts for home games against Essendon and Collingwood in Brisbane as well (maybe even Vic if all agreed), which would be a neat kit vs our traditional rivals.

Good ideas. I would prefer we wore a maroon jumper with a white lion in those games you mentioned re the traditional rivals. We only changed to red because of the introduction of colour tv. Maroon jumper much better than the red one I reckon. Our third kit should be a bears style replica except with the lion. But I think the AFL always want white involved in that particular jumper which always ruins it

Yeah, I think sticking to the red is something that clearly stands out from the standard kit though (the navy with a white lion works really well too).
The cerise kit could look amazing with cerise yoke and lion on a field of yellow I think. That or just re-apply the Bears colours from the training jersey to clash kit.

It's funny because when Rod Butterss brought the Tri-Panel back, when he came in as president, it was because the Club's greatest success (1966) had been in the Tri-Panel.

might be on its way back

Do you know something we dont? or just a hunch?

 

[lionbear]

Here's how I'd do it. In these matchups, both sides wear their full home kit (kits and colours don't look alike at all, and white shorts just make more of a clash):
-Adelaide
-Brisbane
-Carlton
-Essendon
-Fremantle
-Gold Coast
-Greater Western Sydney
-Hawthorn
-Melbourne
-Port Adelaide
-Richmond
-St. Kilda
-Sydney

Clash required:
-Collingwood: No matter what, we wear white shorts and they wear their full home. We can also wear the bounding roo if we're the away team.
-Geelong: No matter what, we wear an inverted kit and they wear white shorts, since they don't seem to have a clash jumper
-West Coast: If it's our home game, we wear our full home kit and they wear yellow. If it's their home game, we wear white shorts
-Western Bulldogs: No matter what, we wear white shorts and they wear their full home. It's silly to have us in the inverted kit vs. them in their white clash, this way both teams wear their traditional design.

There's room to maybe fit the odd bounding roo in there too against pretty much any of the first group of teams.

Same for Geelong as well, both teams in home shorts really works in these match ups.

Perhaps St Kilda and Port I would have Geelong and North in all white still no matter what.

Be great to see North back in white and we have a away game against them, really love to see the clash jumper we have had the last couple of years used in a game

[Hawkk]

Not by the end of the west coast deal, good length of time where west coast were the only ones. Hawks were in Adidas by 2008, I think they swans changed tonisc in 2010, west coast went to idc in 2016 (don't quote me on the dates), that's a good period of exclusivity.

I'm hoping castore pull it out of the bad this year.

Hawthorn were in Puma during the 2012 Grand Final.

In fact they had an exclusive agreement with Puma dating back to the 1970s when the Sales Manager got Peter Knights and Peter Crimmins sales - rep jobs

Hmm. McDonald's have disappeared completely from Crows sponsors, along with Optus as you expect.

So not mcdonalds? or maybe they are being changed to principal partner

 

[Heardy_101]

Surely that theory or rule has been thrown out the window by now. West Coat and Richmond both have yellow clash jumpers with no white, and Crowd this year had a Yellow and a Red away jumper with no white other than shorts.

 

[acm21]

Could be either, leaning towards no more McDonald's and its someone else, would of thought it would be a straight swap if it was McDonalds.

It has to be Sonic at this point. Red-yellow-blue colour scheme, American burger chain, and they are opening up their first restaurant in Adelaide next year.

I’ve seen what’s on its way

 

[Nickimus Rex]

Lions have removed ChiQ (TV brand) as an official partner, and added United Petroleum as a Platinum/Major partner

Sonic don't use yellow anymore. Just red and light blue now.

Is the colour yellow involved?

 

[ak_4hunnid]

Is the colour yellow involved?

Considering that they used the yellow crusader for the training guernseys this year, that could mean they are going in another direction. As well, the tri-colour guernsey doesn't work well with the current NB template, so I'm almost hoping they go with the crusader for the home guernsey. All just my own theory however. Nonetheless, it's got me excited.
