New Irish Rugby Jersey

dunser

Folks

Did you know that IRFU new kit manufacturer from Sept will Be Puma.I am not sure they will look great as I dont think Puma have great jerseys

So I would be careful if you heading out to buy new jersey after the great win on Saturday

Noopti

Think this has been discussed here a few times already.
I'm sure Puma are delighted now that Ireland are GS champions. Also, some of their jerserys aren't bad.

Yep, similar thread here. Any links to nice PUMA jerseys? I could only find this horrible effort:

Baths jersey is pretty decent. This is a ladies version or something.....but you get the idea.

Eoin

Yep, that's a ladies top. I'll just have to wait and see what it looks like in real life - it looks way better in Bath's colours than the one I linked to. I don't think you can beat the traditional Canterbury jerseys though.

dub_skav

Not a huge fan of what Canterbury have done with the jerseys over the years - didn't like the white underarms or the thin white hoops on the sleeves.
Nike did pretty good stuff with the Irish jersey and before that they were traditional plain affairs.

I think the Puma jerseys could be very nice, just depends what shade of green they go with

toomevara

There've been a number of threads on this topic...enough already!!!

I'm really not mad about the dark green. They've done the same with the french blue, its hard to tell the difference when both sides are dark

Oh god you're not one of those are you?

I think the New Ireland jerseys would be more represatentive of these type of shirts used in 08/09.

That's a bit manky tbh...

Looks more like a soccer jersey if ya ask me.
If it had the right colour and proper logo's i dont think it would be bad at all.
Hate those jerseys made from polyester, they stink when you have em on ya in the pub for a few hours, the reason I never wear a soccer jersey other than when Im actually playing it.

dave910

Yep, but there's usually a cotton supporters version these days, just make sure thats the one you get...

Anyway I like the current jersey, if Puma do come up with something I hope its nothing like the ones we've seen here

Im fussy about those too, I find them very heavy and If theyre anything like the Cantabury ones they wont fit me properly either.

Ill probarbly end up buying the polo shirt again :rolleyes:

Lads, let's pull this thread back to some kind of civil discussion without the need for personal digs and insults.

Yeah, i know what you mean. Just got this season leeds Rhinos home jersey in the cotton and its spot on (almost like a polo), but I got last years NSW origin top (canterbury) and its lost all shape, just like a fecking sack now!! oh the humanity....

If you draged it behind your car from the RDS to Thomond Park it would still look better than the new Leinster one.

This just in lads, leaked photo graphs of the new irish Jersey for the 09/10 season, modeled here by the captain Brian O'Driscoll.







Looks alright.

Looks like middle linebacker material, I reckon!

I think that's photoshopped - O'Driscoll's hair is shorter these days.

Hell, why don't you just buy it now!..The irish jersey, brought to you via Saint Helen's RL, oh the rich irony....It's a straight and rather clumsy crib of the saints 09 away jersey,as I've said already....if you like it you can get it direct from their site at a knock down price.

adamloweire

yeah, i did a nike a puma and an addidas one based on other jerseys they do but i think the real design is gonna be pretty awful

I do laugh to myself when I read the likes of this.
Nobody here has a clue what the designs look like, what the fabric used and what the supporters version will look like.

tonsiltickler

IMO they should be like the All blacks jersey, really simple, no stupid printed on logos, coz they look awful when they start to crack after a few washes( from a supporters pov) and for the love of god i hope they dont use shiny lycra material.....

Trotter

I also want to make a plea on behalf of those of us who've never ever looked down to see a six pack. Please.. Think of those men who eat crisps for Ireland. No to skin tight jerseys. Down with this sort of thing.

Crisps can be eaten for Ireland? And here I am busting my ass in the gym trying to get fit for the new rugby season!!

Stereo-D

Here's my little effort at a design for how the new kit might look..what ya think?? :pac:
