Personally. I don't like either of the suggested designs.

We don't even have street signs like that in Barrow. For me it just looks like a snide copy of some dodgy West Ham/Fulham/Crystal Palace etc badge.

The second one is a image and to complex for a pin badge.

Need summit simple and stylish I think. I'd be happy to suggest some options. All the barrow pins I have I never wear because i think they are to big and look shit. Be nice to have one that I'd want to wear like as I do wear pins badges alot

I'm open to any ideas, just post them up and I'll look into it.

We can order small amounts and we want to try different designs to keep it fresh.

Aye i suppose the design isnt too important at the moment, just seeing if theres enough interest. Maybe people could knock up some designs/ideas if they dont like the first idea.

Rich, I have a 100 years at Holker Street pin badge form 2009 and it looks fine. It might give you an idea. I could show it you on Saturday if it helps. I also have one from when we played down at AFC Wimbledon in 2020-11. It's a double pin with both Wimbledon and Barrow AFC. It looks good. They pre made them for each home game for the away fans to buy, if you see what I mean.

I've got a couple, one that is the badge and one that is a kit shape

I have the 100 years at HS one too GT so I know the sort of thing you are on about. Personally I like those old traditional types of things. Something for Pete to look at if a good design comes up. The last lot similar to those were the 2 very similar badges, one with a white ring on the edge, the other in blue.

I have to wonder though, are game specific badges worth the effort? For the bigger cup games perhaps but I wouldnt think we have the potential market to make it worthwhile on a regular basis. AFC Wombles do of course, and also their "journey" through the leagues made for more memorable occassions worthy of celebration with a new badge.

Not keen on the first design - as someone mentioned, that's a London street sign. I like the idea though, if we can get something a little more personal to the club I'd go for it.

Ste, any chance of you throwing together a vector black-on-blue+white (you know the striped "sunburst" style I mean?) silhouette of Holker Street stand(s) and floodlights?

ie this

in the style of this

with a background of this

But less shit.

That'd look [SwearFilter]

How about a range of badges depicting heroes from the hundred years at holker street.
Blackburn do something like this for example I have a pin badge which is the head of jack walker with his name underneath, could do something similar with say ray Wilkie, cowps, kenny Lowe etc
Just a suggestion mind

Looks decent that, like.

I'd buy one for me and one for my son.

That looks fantastic. When I look at this badge it reminds me of the northern soul logo, now I've got some cracking memories at them nights!
