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.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    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
