Leinser Armour fit Jersey

Diamondmaker

HI

Last season I had the home Jersey in the tight fitting ( armour fit? ) style. I would normally wear a Small in a Jersye but this was nice and snug in a medium.

Anyone know the style Im on about?

I want to buy this seasons one but as Im abroad I obviosuly cant try before I buy. Can anyone confirm that this ( the LEINSTER-HOME-TEST-JERSEY slim fit ) is the stlye I mean?

In that link, the description is correct but the image is not. As with last years shirt the Canterbury logo is much bigger on the Test Jersey

€100 for a jersey??

It's worth the extra 30 imo.

Isn't it a shame that you're better off buying Irish rugby jerseys in the UK?

Better selection.

I have the one you mean (last year my bro got the one you have and I did not - never again). I looks to me to be the same. The giveaway is usually the BOI symbol on the collar and the writing on the sleeves - that looks identical to mine, but don't come after me if I'm wrong

Once postage is added its more than the 100e at home Id say?

Jesrey alone is 93 e converted. I must see if I can buy from Centerbury NZ, I was on their site and prices in NZ dollars. The stuff is SSOOOO Cheap !

Im gonna nip over for the all blacks game I hope and Ill do some shopping

So If I buy the medium again in the one in
mikes linky I should be AOK ??

cheers all

I can't remember, is it cheaper to buy ordinary jerseys from that site when postage is included compared to Elverys?

Its gonna get a whole lot worse if Wales' plans are followed up by other teams...They've signed a deal with Under Armour, who are going to produce three, yes three different types of jerseys for the welsh...one for front rows, one for the rest of the pack and another for the backs....no doubt all three will go on sale to further mug the punter...honestly this replica jersey lark is becoming a complete scam.....

Anyone else notice that this shirt has the Bank of Scotland logo on the collars but BOI on the shirt ??

Surely all those jerseys would be the same style and only the shape/fit would be different?

I quite like the idea of being able to buy a jersey fitted for props!

As a Salad Dodger the current offering from the IRFU is less than flattering.

I'm a Munster man and I absolutely hate the adidas shirt....way too soccerish for my liking..Sticking with me old canterbury for the forseeable...

Can you even et the armour-fit Munster jerseys? I've only seen the loose 100% polyester ones for sale...

I have this seasons and last sesons.
This seasons isnt as tight - without doubt. Its about a half size bigger
The head hole is smaller though!

Diamondmaker,

I got the Home Test jersey as Christmas present, and I have to say it's great. AFAIK there are three different versions of the Leinster jersey;

The standard cotton supporters one €77
The polyester/lycra type profit one €77
The polyester/lycra type test-amourfit one €100 (the one I have)

I've seen the pro-fit one in Arnotts, and it's nice, but not fitted as well as the test one. I think the obvious difference between the two non-cotton jerseys are the small BOI logos on the collar of the test one. The test shirt also has white piping around the bottom of the jersery at the waist and this is slight elasticated as opposed to the other two which are just a standard stiched seam (navy).

I bought this in a Large and it's like a medium when I compare it to last seasons (still fits, just tighter). And it's only 30 quid here
