New balance apparel sponsorship renewed?


Delusional demon 82

Recommended Posts

I get annoyed  when I visit the two large NB shops in Melbourne, Chadstone and DFO South WHarf, and find that there is not one piece of MFC apparel on display or being sold anywhere in the shop. They have to do better than that. There is Liverpool stuff everywhere and it sells. The fact is, the should be contributing to our marketing, they're not

Do we reciprocate too and try to advertise and sell NB gear in our Demon store or online? If we don't maybe we can start to and ask them to do what you say (great idea by the way)! All about exposure :)

We give them heaps of exposure. We have a whole section dedicated to NB gear on the Demon Shop page

And don't forget this DL forum page. FWIW, I believe they ran out of Melbourne Gear last year just before the 70% sale, or am I being naive?

New Balance is harris scarfe brand, bargain basement sportswear. Hoping we get a decent brand to put our gear together eventually. Have bought 4 hats in 5 years and they're all garbage.

Agree 

hope we can get a real sports wear company on board  in future

NB is basically lower end 

old farts gear 

my style really but would love Canterbury or Nike

You do realise that NB is one of the most popular brand of shoes amongst young people?

I personally think they are a great brand to be associated with and have the potential to be one of the biggest in world sport.

Wait. If their quality is so fantastic why would you need a new pair a short time after buying the last?

My feet aren't going to change size so no issues there. Current pair is nowhere near worn out. Asics Kayano are the only better ones I have had.

Thanks New Balance for sponsoring the MFC. 

I reckon their stuff is ok. Like a lot of brands.

I have bought one pair of trail runners using the great discount and they have been as good if not better than any others I've had .

but I've found it really hard to find anything else worth buying ,apart from a tennis top for my Lady 

I'm  glad others have enjoyed their discounts 

we all have different tastes and needs

I can appreciate everyone has different tastes.

I think long term it could be a great partnership.

No its not, its awesome.   Winners, winners, winners.  

I will exclusively buy New Balance gear from now.

He'll be the biggest loser 6 months into his term, and by the way if you think winning by demonising minorities, racism and blatant hate speech is a good thing then there's no hope for you dude

May not be allowed to in anti compete clauses with the AFL stores.

New Balance sucks, the CEO and board are big Trump supporters

Ahhhhh, you may want to fact check that and look at what they actually said. I will paraphrase for you. They were asked what they thought of Trumps ideas around trade agreements and putting in place more protection for US workers, they said they backed Trump on this point. That is all, no more no less. So unless you are someone who thinks you have to agree with everything a politician says or none of it, and that there is no grey, there is no nuance, then I would say they don't back Trump, they support one of his policies which is directly related to the running of the business. Even Pauline Hanson occasionally comes out with the good idea or two, I may agree with those points but I will not back her as a whole in any way shape or form. 

By the way, Sanders and Clinton both held the same view on this as Trump and NB.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
