News 150th year jumper

[I LOVE THE CFC]

Can confirm that Carlton will have a heritage jumper to celebrate their 150th year of existence.

The club will use the corporate logo (mens sana etc) on all off field apparel as well as having this logo up the top of the back of the jumper in the same area that other clubs have something there.

Can't confirm the exact logo of the hertitage jumper but I'd be confident it's the same as the logo worn in our last Princes Park match.

There is also a New Era style cap with the corporate logo with a white swoosh on the side and a white peak.

Aldo I'm not sure if they're clash socks or they will be worn every week but our socks will have a big white square with a navy CFC in the middle of them...

There may well more jumpers that won't be available to the public but I thought you'd all be happy to hear that the traditional logo will be used throughout the 2014 season.

Normal & current clash jumper's are both still going to be used.

Keep you posted if any more details arise.

Personally I would love for us to go really hard with the 150th celebrations as we have such a successful & proud history.

Edit Oct 1, 2013: New logo announced.

Sounds good. Love the old motif and latin motto.

480 days and counting.

Love it, we should return to the laurel wreath permanently, so much more intimidating.

Where did you hear all this?

I could tell you but I'd have to kill you...

Check my record on breaking the news first re: the Livestrong jumper.

I'm not doubting you, just thought maybe something official was released that I missed.

Someone at Nike told me.

So this is for a one off anniversary match, not the whole season?

It looks that way but not a heap of info. Who did we first play in 1864..? Maybe the first team in 1897? Buggered if I know but this is all I know at this stage.

Our first VFL game was against Fitzroy.

In 1897 or early??

Bit hard to have a game against Fitzroy unfortunately.

 

[Jatz]

Any idea as to when we will start seeing more of this or when it becomes available?

1897. There's no clear idea on our first ever opponent according to the Blueseum.

The celebration game would surely be against Collingwood.

The heritage jumper is available in April 2014. The off field should be available in March.

Yeah that would make sense. Be a nice touch to jam us all into Visy Park and belt their heads in!

Might look a little cleaner... I hope it does anyway.

Sorry, I should've linked the article. It's Ronald Dale Barassi's first Carlton jumper.

I don't.
This sort of hand crafted stuff has gone the way of the thylacine.

 

[The_Wookie]

we should play the game at royal parade too

 

[I LOVE THE CFC]

No Harks they won't because you're just a die hard member of their club.

What if we had a different jumper for all of our rival matches eg. Pies, Bombers, Tiges and maybe one of the foundation clubs in Melbourne or Geelong from different periods of time with the different logo's and looks?

Any love for that idea?

I don't.

I assume many of you have already seen this, but I thought it'd be worth updating this thread. Looks as though we're going with a re-worked version of the old laurel wreath for the 150th year.

What will our anniversary clash strip be?
