What Rhinos To Wear: AFL Season

The AFL season is one of Melbourne's favourite times of year. Thousands of footy lovers gather together each week to support their team. Whether you're heading to the MCG to see the game live in action, at the local pub with your mates or from the comfort of your own home. Here are our top picks that'll have you covered for the next Collingwood vs Carlton game, now get around them! 

 

Play On At The Pub 

You can't argue with us that watching the game at your local pub with a pint of beer isn't the best. Our favourite spots include The Great Northern (Carlton), Bridie O'Reilly's (South Yarra) and The Napier Hotel (Fitzroy). When choosing a shoe to wear, you want something that's built for comfort but still offers style.  'Drake' is a versatile chelsea boot made with elasticated side gussets to slip on and off with ease. For the pub, we'd wear it with a pair of denim jeans, plain white t-shirt and a bomber jacket. Just don't forget about your teams scarf and beanie!

 

 

LIVE At The G 

No matter who you barrack for, nothing beats the crowd atmosphere when heading down to the MCG. The MCG hosts up to 100,000 supporters per week during the AFL season, which grabs all Melbournians attention from Friday to Sunday. It's important to find a shoe fit the the occasion and climate (especially living in Melbourne!). 'Porter' is one of our best-selling boots for a reason. It has a fully padded footbed and made with durable Portuguese leather materials. Pair 'Porter' with your favourite jeans and something warm up top under your teams guernsey. 

 

 

We'll Handball It To The Couch 

Didn't have a chance to get a ticket to the game? Not to worry being at home or your mates place is the next best thing. Being in your own environment allows you to celebrate your teams victories with no boundaries or even pull the pin at any time if your team is losing. If you're heading out to a mates house, you want to be cool and casual, we'd suggest a sneaker like 'Freddie'. 'Freddie' is made with a sleek silhouette so you can wear with almost every outfit. We'd recommend to keep it simple with a pair of shorts or jeans and t-shirt.
