News Lions kits and supporter gear discussion

[McIvor]

The top two plus the Fitzroy red one for games in Melbourne are by and far my favourites. I love that top left one with the darker blue and marons.

 

[Saucery]

Why is this a positive?

I don't know but it's hysterical.

And I can't look away!

’s Instagram post about 2023 memberships he is wearing New Balance shorts. He is a puma sponsored athlete. I still see classic men’s jumpers but I think this is a fairly good indication that they have made the switch.
From what I can see on the Lions site the contract with Classic was three years and should be done.
Exciting times, hopefully plenty of good Bears kit

Yeah it's been widely rumoured that we are moving to NB in 2023, along with West Coast. Not a massive fan of their collar, but might see some cool historical kits and off-field gear

 

[LionsMaw]

I'd be keen to see a smaller Lion, more traditional maroon and blue and ditch the collar and cuffs altogether, maybe just piping around the edges.

I've actually done a bunch of random design ideas -

Design using the members gear colours (navy, maroon and a deeper gold), and a clash using the training kit colours, but with the old gold clash kit sides

Some Bears kits for Qclashes and clashes

Edit. And moving the BBFFC to the pocket (if we have to keep Hyundai on the back).

The alternate & away kits look fantastic.
As for wearing Bears kit for Qclashes, I'm not on board with that. I was a Bears fan but we are not the Bears anymore and Bears kit should only ever make an appearance for something like a retro round.
The darker maroon on the hm jumper is really nice but I would prefer the royal blue to a navy.

All fair points. I wouldn't mind a tiny bit of a more Bears like kit for the Qclash only, in the similar vain to the current away kit - maybe just replace the Bears pyramid with a Lion on the cerise kit or something

Bringing back our 2017 Clash kit literally alleviates all those issues in a tasteful way like our Away kit does for Fitzroy

Yeah i love the gold away kit, my partner bought one at her first ever AFL game lol

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

I must be the only one who really loves the current white clash jumper.

 

[Grasshopper17]

I must be the only one who really loves the current white clash jumper.

I don't mind it... We should play in it whenever we play in Perth or Adelaide I think too.

 

[Dalions]

I must be the only one who really loves the current white clash jumper.

I did like the previous ones a little better.

Couple of the Lions member’s New Balance shirts.

 

[Grasshopper17]

Deeper colours or am I imagining things?

 

[Nickimus Rex]

I have renamed this thread to Lions Kit Discussions, so we can keep going when the new kits are officially released

Don’t know if I actually like the colour scheme or not, probably will grow on me though.

Yeah it feels a bit bland at this point, really missing the usage of gold in my opinion

Lions upsize with McDonalds to take partnership to a new level

The Brisbane Lions are saying “I’m lovin' it!” with McDonalds extending its partnership with the Club for a further three years, until 2025.

McDonalds, a long-standing supporter of the AFL industry, has today confirmed it will increase its backing of the Lions as Major Support Partner of our AFL team and Official Partner of the AFLW program.

From 2023, the famous golden arches will be proudly displayed on the neckline of the Club’s AFL guernseys.

Brisbane Lions CEO, Greg Swann said the Club was delighted to continue its partnership with McDonalds.

“We are extremely grateful to have McDonalds take its support of the Club to a new level, while also showing its commitment by extending for three years,” he said.

“We're excited to see what the next three years of this valuable partnership leads to and look forward to working together as we head into a new era for the Club.

First impression is that it looks horrible and that Big (Dan) McStay is regretting his decision to leave.

Looks horrible.

 

[Nunez]

****ing hell, really? Horrible spot for it.

 

[Grasshopper17]

Looks really gimmicky, compared to the Telstra logo in the same place on the women's jersey.

 

[Section 5]

It's advertising dollars, and i think the "M" is small and looks fine to me

The add on the other hand is, well, i am to old to judge

 

[Fatcat08]

Meh. It's an M where the logo for the kit supplier is so in reality it's no worse than that. What's much more interestingis that nb have given up that spot though. Must be some decent dollars there from maccas

To get a major sponsor and only give up that much real estate is a pretty impressive effort
