I'd say the CSFC was just a placeholder graphic. Interestingly they didn't do it with the Kareela logo, maybe they were confident in getting a major sponsor.

Big question is, should the Aramex logo be in red or black?

I really like the red logo on the hoops jersey, but in this case, they should go with black. As close to the original Reebok design as possible, and it will make the grey lines stand out more.

I dont think the club can tell them to change the colour of their branding. I know clubs have in the past. But if reds their colour its their colour. No point poking the bear

If the jersey looks great, your logo will look great.

Lots of companies would be willing to compromise if it benefits them.

But who's to say it won't look great with a red logo?

Anyone with photoshop skills want to do some mockups?

Opal Solar was only yellow (their secondary colour in all logos) on the 2017 away jersey so I think it depends on the wording of the contracts and how flexible they want to be on the alternate jerseys.

I’d expect they’d give a guide with probably a few options and how/where to use them.
Potentially need to get any new product designs approved, for above could send them pic of the original and say ‘this is what we are remaking’ and then send them a couple mock ups including with their logo in black and see what they say

Every business will have a monochrome version of their logo in their styleguide, but you wouldn't find many who would want to use it for this purpose. The colour is a big part of brand identity, and if you've just paid $x00,000 to get your brand in front of people, you want max value

Looks I got pissed & dozed off trying to draw the lines. The top stripes need to stop before the sleeve.

Just need to keep your arm up in the correct position... think it could work with a beer if you bring it in from the side

Black outline to help the Shark stand out but barely legible light grey text under the NRL logo. Hilarious.

Spot on. I doubt theyre gunna say to us, change our logo to black and blend it into your jersey so its hardly noticeable.

League is a business now and we get a lot of revenue from that advertising space, so be it. Its a different game to the likes of the american sports that have minimal sponsors on kits and can also share sposnorship dollars between franchises also.

Broncos had Kia and NRMA on their kits in maroon and yellow and i think white. KIA is generally red but in the case of the broncos, using the red logo would actually make the KIA logo less visible

All that being said the training kits also have white text for aramex so i guess anything may be possible

Here's a little weird one from the vaults.

Apparently during Super League, they didn't mass produce reatail jerseys for the teams, meaning, if you wanted your teams jersey, you had a very small chance of actually getting one.

Another company stepped into the void to create jerseys we could all buy, problem was, they couldn't use Nikes design.

Anyone buy one of these *ahem* unique jerseys?

I had a super league (Nike) and the Reebok jersey when I was younger. Mum donated them to Vinnie’s when I moved to uni.... she somehow still got an invite to the wedding

I have a SL jersey that was hastily converted into a NRL jersey, but never got an actual SL jersey.

I did get a mini SL footy from attending my one and only SL game; Raiders vs Mariners lol
