This is the new Melbourne Hearth FC home football shirt made by Reebok.
Melbourne Heart FC is an Australian professional football club based in Melbourne, Victoria which will be the 11th official franchise in the A-League. The club was formed in 2008, and was awarded an A-League licence in 2009 to compete in the 2010-2011 season of the A-League.
The club's home strip was confirmed as Red/White stripes on 29 March, no details have yet been released regarding home shorts, home socks or any details regarding away kit.
Initially, a colour scheme of either black and white, or red and white were the two options for the club. On November 11, 2009, the Herald Sun suggested that the options for the club's kit were red and white stripes, red and white hoops, red and white sash or an Ajax derivative with a red band down the middle, in part to replicate a Reds v Blues rivalry with Melbourne Victory.
The club's badge was lodged to IP Australia on the 29th of January by the FFA. On 2 February 2010, the name of the club was announced as Melbourne Heart FC.

Well Reebok might move on, god they were horrible designs. But tbh we dont know that for sure as Reebok is the official kit supplier Austrailian A-league, therefore creating more unique designs for the A-league teams. We just have to wait and see until the summer with the kit releases of the likes of Bolton, Koln and CSKA Moscow...basically all european teams who are signed with Reebok
Plus, most cities with two teams have one blue and one red team.
Sydney do too - WSFC is red and black.
2) The emblem is excellent but the shape doesn't stand out against the red and white stripes.
3) Sydney Rovers are going to be red white and black, surely the heart could have come up with a different colour scheme than red and white.
I agree 100%. But I would actually be surprised if this is the final product. I would say Reebok has just thrown something together just so Heart can unveil their "star" recruit". It's still a very long way off the start of the 2010/11 season so chances are they will produce something a little better in that time.
agree. i'm actually a heart supporter (just hate the hectic victory wogs) and wanted them to have the sash design (like river plate) but i like it all until i saw the sleeves. it looks like theres one too many strip on either side. the sleeve started halfway down his bicep. but i like the basic reebok designs for the a-league, though i can't wait for idependant team kit makers.
Hang on a second. Please forgive my ignorance. You are a Melbourne Heart supporter??
As far as I can make out from my limited knowledge of the A-League, this club was thrown together as a money making venture by some businessmen looking for a franchise.
They have a badge that looks like the logo of a petrochemical company, they haven't yet agreed on which stadium they'll be playing in, they only confirmed their colours TWO DAYS ago, and you "support" them?
I know clubs have to start somewhere but Jesus it's depressing to read about a club applying to a league for a franchise, rather than starting out as a group of sportsmen playing together for the love of the game and building up from there.
I am guessing your not an A-league follower? its our system and its still young
The way that the A-League, Heart, Reebok and Westpac logos and the white box on the back of the shirt are all slightly too wide to fit cleanly on the stripes: POOR
If you're going to do something simple, at least do it well.
Although the club name does sound like a radio station, I do like the logo. Not a complete failure then.
anyway they do have a great logo.
and i hope that perth flog them for 400000 when they come
to ME Bank Stadium
GO GLORY!
England has a strong football history. We have a strong Aussie Rules, Rugby, Cricket and League history. Football is a relatively new sport (while it has been around it was always well down the pecking order). It is finally growing. So the A-league was created to break links with the old ethnic based club structure of before which was very restrictive and gave no chance of progression of the sport.
Come to an A-league game and see the fans before you comment.
