You know, the brand that sponsor that lot up the road.
I see a fair bit of it around Norwich, but not much anywhere else. Are they a 'legitimate' brand that were a thing before they sponsored Norwich? Or are they now getting a local following thanks to the exposure of being on their shirts?
It’s a legit brand. To his credit their founder has done really well, I met him once. I had a few of their garments, some of the more understated shirts etc and not the chavvy stuff they do. The quality is decent and they’re a nice fit.
Needless to say since they started sponsoring Norwich I’ve not bought anything because I’m a child like that.

They've been around for ages, and done really well for a decent amount of time. The Norwich sponsorship has just enhanced it. The hoodies/sweatshirts are really popular, they're really comfortable and last well.

It's about the nicest thing I can say about Norwich that they have had some decent sponsors in the short (i.e. comparing to some of the unheard of, illegal gambling companies etc - though they did have a betting one as well). Lotus and Blakely are decent sponsors to have on the shirt. Not a fan of Blakely clothes but it's still a decent company. Wouldn't buy either on principle now!!
Problem is you can't polish a t#$d and no sponsor will make their shirt look nice. Awful club. I wish them an horrendous next sponsor and hope we get our next one right after some good times with Ed!

I've always admired their sustainability and humility ethos, right from when they were sponsored by that local grower of alliums, Norwich Onion, to their recent, honest acknowledgement of their status with the acronym LOTUS - which was nothing to do with the car-maker, but stood for 'Lack Of Trophies; Up Sister'.
The new Blakely sponsorship is, I believe, a nod to sufferers of dyslexia and, again, an admirably honest appraisal of how they regard the future of their club: Bleakly.
