Our New Jumper.

[Dancin' Douggy]

Hi all,
I'm not very happy with our new jumper.
The stripes are too low and too thin.

The red stripe is supposed to be right up under the armpits.

Why do people keep meddling with a classic beautiful guernsey?

Having the stripes around your belly button just looks lame.

Imagine the Carlton crest down on their belly buttons, it would look awful, that's what it's like to me.

****I can never ever ever seem to upload an image on woof. No matter how much I shrink it down to tiny blurry thumbnail, it always tells me it's too big. I was trying to load a picture of EJ in the classic kit. It's also the reason I've never put a picture on my profile. Help anyone????

The colours have changed dramatically as well over the years. The blue has been all shades, not sure why we can't get it right.

[I'm Not Bitter Anymore!]

I agree too aqua, stripes too low and too thin

[Cyberdoggie]

Yeah now that I have seen it i'm not impressed. Also it may just be the young kids being so skinny but they ones they were wearing were very loose, no way you could play with those.

The blue is too light.

The hoops too low and too thin

Perhaps they just rushed in their designs but if you add that ugly grey polo then the results aren't positive for asics.

DD I agree that the stripes are better higher; they are meant to impress by making the chest seem superhero size.
Too low and it's more like an athletics top.

[Murphy'sLore]

It's not very flattering having the stripes around the tum area. Should be more of an empire line, right up under the bust!

According to the email I received ...which I have also posted in another thread...they say "The Club designs and chooses the colours".

Loved last years - don't like this years' blue.

[Dancin' Douggy]

Is it too late to do anything about it?

[The Pie Man]

Is it too late to do anything about it?

It shouldn't be - and I agree with everyone here, it looks weird. Especially seeing the draftees pose in it. Should be a pretty easy fix.

Is it just me, or were the hoops on our GF strip a bit higher up than our 2016 regular season jumper? May have been the badging altering the look of it - damn we looked good!

These comparisons are from the On-Line Bulldogs Shop

Agree with others regarding the changes. Much prefer the 2016 model

Not bothered by the colour, but don't like the lower hoops. Should be sitting right under the arm hole.

[The Bulldogs Bite]

Odd decision to place the hoops so low.

[chef]

I don't see the big deal. Looks fine to me.

Nah they're really low look way better up under the arms. It's a simple thing that has been done incorrectly. Why change it is my question?
