Just Do It - Nike new Apparel Sponsor for the Sydney Swans

[robbieando]

Nike and the Sydney Swans unite to celebrate the power of sport

We’re proud to announce we’ve expanded our partnership with Nike, who will become the Official Apparel and Footwear Partner of both the Sydney Swans and the QBE Sydney Swans Academy.

ISC has been replaced by Apparel giant Nike, new gear is now available on the club website.

Damn! Surely that has to be a brilliant get?!!!

I'm impressed!

 

[sataris]

This is great news.

Hopefully it comes with increased revenue as well.

 

[DavyRed]

Seems to be a good move but looking at the new Off-field and Training gear - geez, could it be more boring!

 

[Millky95]

*sigh*

Time to break open the bank to get all the new gear...

 

[bedford]

Mens Polo $90 ,ladies $70 , that's bullshit

That’s Nike. I’d say very good quality but a bit bland sometimes unless it’s shoes.

Hopefully they get a bit creative after a while.

Nike tax

I like the understated gear.

Is this yet another failure of Tom Harley?

Same price as last year, or pretty close, I'd say... AFL gear is always pretty expensive imo

Should just play naked.

This is a great off field move by the club. Biggest sports brand in the world

 

[GoTheSwannies]

I like nike as a brand... minimalistic design, which I personally like. Although I though ISC did a good job for the most part.

Why the difference in price , they are the same

No idea, but the womens are always about $20 - $30 less than the mens...

 

[Maddhew]

I like the new kit, looks good as does the logo.

 

[GoTheSwannies]

Seeing the logo on the new kit makes me realise that I don't like it. Reckon the old logo would have looked better on the Nike gear.

Only elite clubs in Australia like the Cooma Tigers Football Club and Monaro Panthers Football Club have been able to secure Nike sponsorships previously, Harley = gun

 

[V9x18]

Yay for slave labor! Terrific get! Will look great next to the Qatar Airways logo!

 

[DeadlyAkkuret]

Meanwhile the Saints have gone with NB but the players still have Nike runners on in their new ad. What a disaster.

Who wears NB? Not to be a brand snob but their designs are generally atrocious.

Yes, the club's sponsorship by Nike is the exact same as Nike being a teamwear provider to those clubs. Good point, well made as usual.

Anybody seen the jersey in the shops. Look crepe paper thin and have these weird little holes presumably for breathability. Seemingly fresh out of the box, the ones in the AFL store had crease marks like they were made from coloured cardboard.

The slave labour is probably from Muslims in concentration camps in China

I am super happy with Nike as the apparel sponsor and really liked last years kit. They make stuff you can wear without looking like a nuffy. Same as New Era with hats.

5 weeks in and the most recent Nike item in the Swans Shop is the 2021 pride guernsey. I checked the Pies (also Nike) shop and same issue.

Hawks (ADIDAS) already seeling 2022 ANZAC gear. Tigers same (Puma)

The clubs and the AFL cannot be pleased with this, I'm not.
