ADIDAS to FILA to SLAZENGER to ISC...............greatest club of all, you would think that apparel sponsors would be knocking down their door!!!!

 

[rainmaker]

[roger explosion]

'sif Adidas or Nike aren't knocking on the door after your year?

You think they would, but they dont want to travel an extra hour down the highway

Lazy assholes!

God that sh**s me how they keep changing all the time.

All the current Slazenger apparel and merchandise all of a suddenly feels retro.

Yeah.
It sounds like some unknown brand that will be shit! Agh.
I never liked FILA, but even they'd be better than whatever brand this is.
I really liked Slazenger too...

Geez life must be tough at the Cattery when your biggest problem is which apparel sponsor you are going to have.

Who cares who makes the blue and white hoops.

Here comes another slightly modified guernsey.

Yeah, but just think, it's what the players wore in our premiership year!

Well you wouldn't want to wear (potentially) shitty supporter gear, would you?

ISC is a reputable company that has made some pretty good stuff over the years. I don't reckon it will be that bad at all...

 

[Bryceson]

any company is gunna make quality gear, so all i care about is if the logo looks decent on our jumper. anyone have a pic?

This is what I imagine it will look like, that's the logo from the ISC website... Ew.

This was the first year I decided not to wear my guernsey (circa. 2000) to the footy anymore. Then I made a deal with myself that if we made the Big One, I'd buy this year's and wear it. Bought it on the Friday, wore it with pride on the Saturday.

Week and a half later and we're about to change it again!

I'm not sure of the exact details, but it may not be Geelong's fault.

Slazenger may have dropped us. Perhaps they didn't want to sponsor an AFL side anymore and go down a different path so opted not to renew the contract.

Either way I am sure we'll have quality gear again next year. Apparently the players had a big input into the way they wanted the gear designed and they are all very happy with the results.

ISC are a renowned Rugby brand. They sponsor various clubs in the NRL (South Sydney, Newcastle, Canberra, Penrith to name a few) and all Australian Super 14 clubs as well as a few NBL clubs. This will be their first foray into AFL.

I've known about this since about May/June so I made sure not to buy any Slazenger stuff this year as I knew it would be a waste.

Looking forward to seeing what the gear looks like!

Yep, and it makes us look like we have too many logos on our guernsey.
I wouldn't mind it if it was a simple "ISC" text logo (like Slazenger), not a picture logo.
