Thanks BAD. I ordered my son the blue training guernsey with his name on it. He's going to love it. Also grabbed the ladies' travel jacket for me, so enough for free shipping.

How do you add a number and/or a name? I can't see where you can enter it?

[Topdog]

Thanks BD. Christmas shopping time

Just had a look, must only be an option on the training guernseys under 'Personalise your item'

Thanks. Silly that you can't at least get a number on the match guernseys.

Agreed, it's stupid!

[Mofra]

The gym shorts are only available in 3XL and higher. Damn.

[Ozza]

Thanks BAD. Jumped on and got a Guernsey for my young bloke. He has the white clash Guernsey, but I said if we won the Grand Final I'd get him the blue one - time to make good on the promise.

I was going to get a pair of those too - 2 of me could fit in a 3XL!

Actually realised in the end that personalisation was also available on the clash guerneys, just not on the regular blue guernesys - weird. Smallest jumper I could get for my Bonti loving 3 year old was a size 8 - hope he hangs around for a few years so she can grow into it!

[Guido]

The gym shorts are only available in 3XL and higher. Score.
Edited for how I'm looking at it.

[Remi Moses]

Been disappointed with the price of BLK products .
Just way to expensive , and I hope Asics products are a bit less pricey .

[hujsh]

Looked yesterday and it seemed like you had to be 2XL before they had any stock available.

I wouldn't be holding your breath there - Asics tends to be quite expensive generally.

All the big sporting goods company's seem to charge a fortune. They must have some really generous employment packages in place for their workforce is my guess as to why.

[Cyberdoggie]

They charge what they think people will pay for it to a large extent.
If they are too much, then don't buy them. Wait for them to go on special.

More likely is the marketing cost of sponsoring a wide range of professional athletes. Which they then pass onto the consumer.

Or that.

[divvydan]

Looks like we saw the writing on the wall and broke away from BLK just in time. They've been placed into administration today.

Hopefully everyone gets all the gear they ordered and paid for!

When did you guys order, I haven't received anything yet.

Hopefully the company will continue to operate under the administrator at least in the short term.

[Twodogs]

They were obviously struggling.

If you don't get it soon, contact your bank and cancel the payment on your credit card

[LostDoggy]

I received mine today.

Why did we end our deal with Kooga? I thought their stuff was the best we've ever had.

Kooga and BLK are/were the same.

[Twodogs]

Kooga is a much better name.

BLK is actually Beyond Limits Known

Ordered 8 November and received Monday 14 November.

[Topdog]

Ordered on the 9th Nov and haven't received it yet.

Order history doesnt show anything stating that it is shipped. Did ppl get shipping confirmation?

[ratsmac]

I received my order today, phew!

Yeah you should get an email with tracking information. Apparently mine's at our PO Box, woo hoo!

[LostDoggy]

Kooga and BLK are/were the same.
Yeah but when I called BLK to order their stock, I only ever asked for one.

When they were called Kooga, I'd always ask for "five Koogas, thanks".

Just checked, and this thread started on the 9th - so am almost 100% sure that I ordered on that day. Arrived Monday (14th).

[Topdog]

Shit, all I have is an order confirmation email from

BLK (Beyond Limits Known) - Order confirmation

[Axe Man]

That's all I have as well and ordered on the 9th. I got a number on a jumper so not sure if that may take longer?

So did I and Im quite worried about receiving this. Christmas present for my son. He'll be devastated if it doesnt eventuate.

[Throughandthrough]

Allegedly the deal with BLK and one of the major (other) AFL clubs is $200K cash PLUS the gear.

When you say The gear is that all the stuff players wear through the year? Training and match gear and all that

Yeah i think so. "someone" told me that they gave away too much stuff.

It's a shedload of stuff!

[Axe Man]

Got an email from BLK today saying that one of the items I ordered (a polo shirt) isn't available and the balance of my order will be dispatched ASAP. Not sure how it took them almost 2 weeks to figure out they didn't have an item in stock that they had displayed as available. Good and bad news I suppose.

I hope you get the refund. My travel jacket is too big & I've been told no refunds/exchanges. You didn't get your item though so one would hope for a refund!

I just realised that they haven't actually charged anything to my card yet, so that's a plus!

So will this mean our own premiership merchandise sales, and thus our profits, go down from here on out if there's no stock for the club to sell.

No as we moved away from them

So Asics are now printing premiership polos, jackets, jumpers etc. with their logo, or the BLK logo as was on the original jumper/polo?

There is no Asics premiership stuff on the club website. The only BLK items left are a ladies polo and kids guernsey. The rest of the clothing is no name AFL branded stuff.

This is what I thought too. So we don't have any of that BLK premiership clothing/stock to sell as a club coming into Christmas. That's not ideal from maximising every last cent out of the premiership.

Not great, but much better than still being aligned with them.

For sure. I don't pretend to understand the finer points of administration takeovers, but could the club not put an order in with the administrators. The manufacturers already have the graphics and specifics. Surely it's a win-win if the club thinks it can sell it.

Agree BT. I for one was hoping to go down to The Club closer to Xmas to splurge on Xmas premiership gifts.....even to my Hawthorn lover mate.

Same, Santa was going to very one eyed this year whether people liked it or not! Just gotta work around what they have and don't have I guess.

[Topdog]

There is no way that the club would have had 2 competing clothing stocks in the store at the same time. Also no way Asics would have allowed it (new stuff that has been ordered after the contracts switched)

There is still plenty of premiership material available.

My BLK order finally arrived today. Unfortunately the number 4 i got printed on my daughter's jumper is minuscule, but guess I should just be glad that they fulfilled the order!
