A question about the Swans Shop

[robbieando]

Does anyone know if the Swans Shop is open at this time of year and if so what are the opening times?????

[desredandwhite]

Welllll... it's not REALLY the swans shop anymore. it really only carries the full range of swannies gear during the games. you would get better range of stuff in melbourne I reckon, Robbie - or maybe mail order when they release all the new stuff

[robbieando]

Well that sucks. I'm hoping to get the new Puma Polo Top but the AFL Store at Chadstone hasn't got any of the Swans Puma stuff - yet it has West Coast's so with my parents in Sydney for the week I asked them to stop by and see if they could get one. Oh well I ring them now to tell them to stop walking around and let them go to bed

I know I saw a couple of new tops at micks simmons on George St....

There is usually some Swans gear there but you have to hunt hard to find the little corner amidst all the league stuff. The shop is in the Gold Members' carpark and is open at least from 9-5 Mon to Fri.

Melbourne...... Swans stuff???

Where'd you get the idea that there's Swans stuff everywhere here? The AFL stores only carry knick-knacks like mugs and badges. There is only 1 K-Mart store (so called "AFL Headquarters") that carries any Swans stuff. The only time you can get any official clothes are at matches, where you get a fairly limited range.

If there's heaps down here, I must have my eyes closed.

You need to be over this side of melbourne Charlie.There are at least 2 AFL stores here that are loaded with swans stuff.The owner is a mad swans supporter like us so he has his stores well stocked.He shows me the catalogues of the new stuff coming out all the time,he is really good.

(I think he even reads these forums occasionally,sshhhh)

Damn... does he want to buy the AFL Highpoint store?????

[robbieando]

Grant I know Chadstone doesn't have anything of the new Puma range yet has every other team with Puma. Haven't been to Knox

I got my last lot of gear from Playbill on the net. No
problems at all.

Try the AFL shop in Southland shopping complex robbie.
At the start of last season I got the top of the range brand new polo top for 2002 ( which is still valid for this year ), so try southland in cheltenham. You will have a good as chance as anywhere else.
Hope you are prepared to part with a wad of cash though, my polo top cost me the best part of $100.
Anyway check it out.
