yep agreed.

someone in here mentioned street wear for NRL a while ago, got unsurprisingly knocked down by a few... but I’m all for it.

Most of the gear has sponsors slapped all over it, no doubt part of the deals they agree with sponsors. But they can look like something from nascar.. and not that cool.

An example..

I Bought a retro dragons hoodie from Mick Simmons a while ago. Red, simple “Dragons” text of the front, with the St George Emblem on the back.

Moved to Adelaide last year and my partners’ 15 y/o daughter basically claimed it, wanted me to buy her one but they aren’t around anymore so I gave it to her. Wears it everywhere and her friends want one too. I’ve also got a dragons jacket that has sponsors but she doesn’t like that one.

She loves it because it’s simple, unique, loves the logo design and not “afl” which is everywhere. She doesn’t follow the sport but wants me to buy her anything else in a dragons range like that. And her friends have put in their requests too.

Souths usually do the best line of wearable merch without looking like a billboard.

Absolutely no argument there. They have been the leader in championing a brand above all clubs in the NRL, particularly Sydney clubs.

There’s no reason why other clubs can’t do the same as what the Rabbits have done.

Id love to see a table of revenue for merch sales for each club! Warriors must do well, always see warriors gear around the place.

Looking at their online store, Souths seem to get a lot of attention from '47 Brand - probably more than the other clubs. I have a Storm t-shirt by them and it's basic in a good way - a front pocket heritage logo (original Storm logo in the shield) and a simple wordmark on the back. I've only ever seen a couple of t-shirts by them for us, though. There needs to be more of that for all clubs.

ISC did a range of baseball-style hooded jackets last year - very restrained, simple colours and a simple monogram logo (or in our case, the S alternate logo). I would consider those jackets to be 'street wear'. Probably my favourite jacket to wear to games but you could just as easily wear it anywhere without it being too in your face.

Was looking at the 2020 jersey and decided its probably a step in the wrong direction as far as our jerseys have gone,
Im surprised Melbourne have never used a simple jersey like this seeing as its the jersey worn by the mascot in the logo, it's also very Victorian in that its just a big V, and recognisably a Storm jersey with the navy and purple

And couldn't help myself so I photoshopped up a mock up from the BLK designer

Lovely mate. clean design.

I’m a nag for good numbering. The full solid numbering is far far better than the “bordered” numbers all the teams have currently IMO, which just looks crap to me.

If anything though a white/light outline of your numbering here would highlight it to a crowd. Eg something like the jerseys of the 80’s etc that allowed you to still see numbers once the jersey got dirty.. (and when you could tell the real workhorses from the slackers, or subs).

Great job. In an era of jerseys becoming mobile billboards, you’ve come up with a very clean design. A single use of colour (apart from orange highlights) for all sponsors certainly helps and unfortunately unlikely in the real world for most clubs. The NRL won’t do anything now in these troubled times of course but in the future, I’d like to see a design criteria in place that clubs need to follow to keep the kits simple and classy. Oh and agree with JF about key lines on numbers.

Those sponsor logos used are the exact ones used on the 2020 storm home jersey, definately looks a lot better when sponsors are integrated well!

If the club came out with something like that, here’s exactly how it would go down - ‘where’s the yellow?’, ‘where’s the lightning bolts?’, ‘not enough purple’, etc. I like what you’ve come up with but it makes me think more of the Thunderbolts than Storm.

The club did a favourite jersey poll during the week - probably just to get some content up since there are no games. The original 1998 jersey and the 2018 remake were the overwhelming favourites. It’s what the people want. If they brought that design back and kept it permanently they could do whatever they like with the away and do as many one-off event jerseys as they want - I don’t care.

I’m not hugely in the yellow camp but it’s important as an accent colour. Our 2018 off-field gear was the best it’s looked in years.

Those jerseys were popular as predominantly navy blue with purple and yellow secondary. I like that simple jersey, incorporate a bit of yellow somehow and spot on.

I get where your coming from, the fanbase is overly hung up over the yellow (Im definitely not in the yellow camp!), the numbers on the back could be yellow instead of purple but I found it jarring, but then again thats probably just because Im not a fan of yellow mixed with 2 dark colours.

I liked the 2018 remake of the 98 jersey and wish we had stuck with that instead of going back to the 2017-esque one we have now, however I didn't like the yellow collar, mostly because the ISC collar template didn't lend well to it being a different colour, and it had close to the least amount purple of any other jersey!

Also my mock up was supposed to have the white lightning bolt side panels like the last few have but I forgot
