Mega Thread The Port Store Mega Thread

So can anyone confirm if we're getting a new manufacturer for next season? The club has been marking down the prices of current guernseys to ridiculously low levels which often means we're changing brands. Some people have been saying Blades might be the brand that takes over Reebok a while back on here, has there been any developments with this?

If Blades do take over that'll be great. The material they use to make the current North Melbourne guernsey is fantastic.

not sure if serious?

The last time I felt an Blades north guernsey it felt like toilet paper.

Um. What? No. x-blades is the WORST AFL manufacturer evar. Feels shit, looks shit and the gives of a k-mart vibe.

North's guernsey feels and looks similar to the old Adidas cricket ODI shirts imo. I think it's designed to keep your body cool and not stuffy. I like it with the cricket gear but I don't reckon it suits football guernseys to be honest.

K-Mart vibe is having a club shop stocking Reebok guernsey's that aren't the same as the ones the players wear, and guernsey's where the black looks brown. That's k-Mart vibe.

Basically i'll be happy with any guernsey manufacturer that will give us regular folk the option to purchase the on-field authentic version from the club shop.

A black black would be great.

How do other manufacturers fare on that front? I know Adidas do a great black but we aren't getting them.

Richmond's looks black black with KooGa manufacturing their guernseys as does the Saints' with ISC.

Chappy might have a say in turning it brown.

To resemble the shitness that he's bringing to them?

More like the shorts will be brown during his first contact drill at training i think

They're only open Saturdays as well as Sunday's during the season when we're playing at home.

Hoodies and Jackets finally released. Not sure if they were released earlier though. But I've just bought one.

Prefer the "PAFC" or even "PORT" or "POWER" to just "1870" in big bold writing

1870 defines us.

 

[edgie]

The 1870's. Port who? Adelaide what? Power where?

Nope, just the 1870s.

It has Port Adelaide on top and Football Club under it.

'PAFC' would have been ideal. 1870 is a good alternative. 'PORT' or 'POWER' would have been terrible.

It's about the branding. As said above, 1870 defines us. We don't need to spell it out.

E-I-G-H-T-E-E-N-S-E-V-E-N-T-Y?

 

[Stromageddon]

The 70'ers would have been a nice nickname instead of Power. But I suppose 96'ers would have been the equivalent of Port Power.

 

[edgie]

1870 front and square is spelling it out imo

 

[cmpower]

they look awesome, ISC backing it up again!
