EastLondonMike Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Sad to hear, though I'd imagine they'll find a way to keep operating, much like BLK did. seems less and less teams were working with ISC over the last few years. Plenty of NRL teams, like in the SL, with less recognisable sports brands now. Hope they continue as they do make quality product. Newham Dockers - Champions 2013.

They really make quality game and replica shirts that fit very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henson Park Old Firm Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 It's been reported that ISC will leave the NRL at the end of the year.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatmichaelsays Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I think they technically "pulled out" of the UK last year. Whilst the Leeds shirt has the ISC logo, the long-term deal that they had to run the club's retail arm was ended last year and a new one agreed with Elite Pro Sports (who I think supply Gloucester RU)? Most of the new leisure gear seems to be supplied by Oxen now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Sad to hear, I nearly always like ISC gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastLondonMike Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I know ISC started venturing in to other sports such as football, and also started to supply lifestyle-esque sportswear. Maybe they've over stretched. You would have thought they would be in a position to accommodate any short term shortfalls though. It's not as if they really sell direct to consumer, nearly everything would have gone through the clubs purchasing. Whatever the reason, sad all the same. I follow ISC on Instagram and I'm sure they've just recently signed a couple of long term deals with a couple of sports organisations, touch footy Australia being one i think. Maybe they're just downsizing and cutting the more expensive relationships with the NRL clubs. Newham Dockers - Champions 2013.
