Does anyone know what was wrong with the ISC Guernseys, that meant we wanted to change. It just seems they were doing a fine job. If it ain't broke, and all that.

Gear manufacturers are pretty much just sponsors. I don't know the exact details but I do know we all but signed with BLK a couple of years back before ISC came to the party and we did a better deal.
All this change to BLK means is that it's a better deal for us.
I loved the ISC gear, high quality stuff.
I know people are worried about BLK's colours but we made it clear in negotiations that our colours will not be compromised on. Let's just wait and see a proper photo or a release to see how they've done, but white cuff and collar will look amazing next year.

The main thing I want to see is our clash not too white.

The current clash is a perfect blend of our colours and being white enough as a clash. It screams St Kilda.

Has anyone mocked up a black version of our clash? Would love to see it.

Yeah i know peeps keep complaining about BLKs colors. But until i see one properly and not just a half fuzzy snapchat pic or peeps comparing it to other teams BLK jumpers i hold off on judging them.
Lets see the damn thing in the flesh first before we go ape droppings.

Does our home kit look like a jump suit???
Just a personal opinion more than anything else.

First, we've got a very long tradition of having our front of jumper being more or less evenly split between black, white and red. The lack of black isn't a big problem, but the top bits should really be white too, and some trimming, either black or white on the shorts.

Second, I like Blacks, Whites, Blues and Browns as base colours. Sydney is tolerable as the front is mostly white, and Freo is ok for purple, but I hate Gold Coast, GWS, Tigers Clash, Essendon Clash, Adelaide's Yellow and Red Clashes, anything where Port uses Teal as the base.

Personally, I wanted black cuffs but somehow most of you seem to think the white ones look better. Didn't realise 80% of Saints fans were color blind ( :p )

That being said, all the club needs to do is get Dempster to model one of these and all is good. That guy looks good in anything.

Just remember that the shorts would have the black and white stripes and logo down the sides similar to our black and white short versions

Now that youve mentioned the dreaded black cuff Vs white cuffs again:eek::D.
Its looks like most peeps arent gonna be 100% happy again.
We either had a great colored jumper but most werent happy with cuff color.
Now weve got fantastic cuffs but peeps not 100% happy with brightness of jumper color.

Ok so the jumper aint 100% perfect, who cares its still a Saints jumper peeps so lets embrace it:thumbsu:

Juts remember that the shorts would have the black and white stipes and logo down the sides like our black and white shorts do.
A simple change like the top quarters being white as well would fix it, alongside the trimming. There's just RED!!!!! And a little bit of white. And even less black. Which would be fine. If there was more whit.
