i wouldn't waste my money on supporters gear that doesn't actually look like supporter's gear.

 

[bomberclifford]

It does look like supporter's gear because it is supporter's gear.

I think the club could make some serious coin if we utilised the 'PA' into other areas of merchandise like The Smaller Warrior's examples.

Yeah... nah. Most of the official stuff looks like shit in a shoe.




Also FWIW this is in the store. It's not great by any stretch but it's the monogram.

Tell that to the thousands who've bought New Era caps, pumping tens of thousands into Port Adelaide's coffers.

Did New Era design that? I thought we they had the rights to use the monogram?

I'm happy for you.

 

[captain ebert]

And besides, the PA monogram has already, in a very short time, become pretty recognisable as "Port Adelaide".

that's irrelevant. It's not our logo, it's not our branding. It doesn't represent our club. Wear it if you like, but you're promoting anything & everything "PA" not PAFC.

I'm not responsible for what is designed & yeh that gear isn't very tasteful unfortunately. The simple PAFC hoodie though is a great start though & "less is more".

Used on official merch tho

Not to mention the players themselves, who proudly wear these hats out in an unofficial capacity simply because they look so damn good!

I just don't get you guys wanting to wear team supporter apparel that doesn't actually have the team logo on it.
That "PA" monogram doesn't embody anything about the club & could stand for any thing, company or brand. It's meaningless & looks like a cheap copy.
Why the shame? If you're going to the effort & expense, put your **** in the block & proudly let the world know you support your great club.

There is something a bit embarrassing about a grown adult human being wearing attire brightly splashed with the club logo and splashes of teal around the place, say, to the shops. Most supportwear is a bit full on for day to day walking around, and more suited to going to the football.

The PA monogram caps were subtle enough that they look like any other baseball cap, but let you proudly represent the club in a way that isn't garish or obvious. They look subtle and understated and actually go with other clothing I might be wearing.

If people want to wear something with brighter and more in-your-face PAFC branding, that's totally up to them. I don't want to do that. The PA monogram hats give me another option and they've been arguably the most popular non-guernsey item we've ever sold.

I mean like what is with the monogram being used outside new era merch

 

[The Smaller Warrior]

I know you guys didn't really like it, but I had a play with this one again. I feel that it might be nice for the females? *shrugs*
