Going back some time to the discussion on silver as one of Port's 4 AFL colours, I have been whingeing about the club's use of gun metal grey as a substitute for silver in merchandising, branding, etc.

People say to me "well, you know that a lump of silver looks grey, wah wah wah....". This pic from the Veronica's half time entertainment shows the reflective, shimmery silver I reckon we need to use (the colour - NOT the design of the outfits!!!).

People talk about "silverware" when they are referring to kitchen cutlery, or sporting trophies, etc. That is what I am talking about.

Our primary colours are Black and white. Secondary colour is teal/blue. Tertiary colour is silver. As a colour to use for piping, highlighting, etc it would look specky under lights (not so much in daytime).

The Oakland/LA/LV Raiders seem to get it right, particular with their strides. Not sure whether there’s any difference (fragility) in materials that would prevent that colour being integrated into a footy guernsey.

Hawthorn’s widely-mocked ‘power ranger’ managed to nail proper silver/shine, so you’d think it’s possible.

I thought they (AFL/VFL) weren't allowed to sell the ANZAC Guernsey???

Wtf is this shit

 

[melanChronic]

Wtf is this s**t

I like them. Interesting that there is no teal on either logo.

 

[finbarr]

I think club caps in non team colours is pretty standard these days. Crow urine is an odd choice however.

mustard on its own and olive on its own you see often enough, but combining them... it's surely a troll operation

Yes, I do agree. See lots wearing the pink and also Camo, but this urine colour is horrendous

You’ll probably find all clubs would have a variation of this.

New Era just trying something different by the looks of it. And have missed by a long way lol.

 

[bomberclifford]

Horrendous colour combo, no matter how you spin it.

Looks like someone's Peckers cap from the 1980s rescued from the back window of their datsun 180B after 30 years

"2 of our new faves"......

Is the yellow Wiggle running the Port Store now?

 

[Launchpad McQuack]

Seeing Collingwood beanies with a colourway reminiscent of the 1870 beanies. Couldn't they have just used pink or something?

 

[Chokito]

Need this one put aside for me under the counter for sure

Hope none of you are thinking of going to the port store today to get any indigenous kit. Unless you’re 5 there’s nothing left.

I went Thursday to get one for my teenage son and all they had then were 3xlarge and little kid ones. Also wanted a hoodie for myself but they were also long gone

Really like this 3/4 zip. Cool, well executed 90s/80s kind of design, nothing garish. Good to see some merch that is just black, white and silver too.

There's a few items under the banner of Nick Auditore Represents, which appears to be a generic/unbranded manufacturer of merch, and all the items are in this vein, quite nice and straightforward gear. Beats the hell out of the unbranded Best and Less tier stuff Playcorp have supplied the league with for years

new scarfs are up on the store, this one's enjoyable

 

[Doctor Feel]

Anything mentioning "Alberton Crowd" these days is not ideal.

 

[El_Scorcho]

Oof this is good.

I've wanted a good quality black and white bar scarf for a while and this isn't that but at least it's a purely black and white design with the only teal being in the logo

Yeah this is the discussion I had with Cheesey Mac , but I don't think the average punter will associate me with that group of gentlemen so it's probably still okay
