don't shoot me or anything but i prefer the new shade of green

So do I tbh.

It seems more threatening than the old shade or something. It's richer and more powerful looking I guess.

Does anybody know the actual release date for the jersey???

Depp

I'm sort of suprised there hasnt been a photo released of it yet, would've thought some form of advertising would have started by mid July for an August release.

Depp

should be soon id say, will have more money to buy the test one due to the standard of the munster one

whens the jersey being released!?! dont they've to preview before releasing?? they'd want to do it quick b4 the matchs against the southern teams start or noone will have the jersey

All of those concepts for the Puma Ireland jersey are rotten. Puma isn't what you would call a "rugby brand" anyway. I associate them more with bloody football. The last Canterbury jersey was great. I have the one with all the rubbery stuff on it and I feel like an effin tank in it haha. I'd be interested to see if they can pull it off but until I see the jersey is revealed I'll continue to naysay.

How Irish.

You haven't seen any "concepts" on the new shirt yet. All that has been shown to the public is the training gear used at the two camps which doesn't see the retail side of things anyway.

Seems to be the new training Jersey...surprised nobody posted it sooner

It's been posted a few times, but maybe that was in the other jersey thread.

Of course it's Irish. We're a nation of misery guts and begrudgers .

I can officially shut my trap. That's actually not bad. Remains to be seen what kind of colour they'll go with for the actual test jersey. It would be a nice jersey if they took the green from the little shoulder stripes on the training jersey and made that the primary colour while making those stripes white. In fact thats the only scheme that would like right to me. Unless theres another colour that would look good with that shade of green.

its finally here woo i like it... sum people are saying it looks the exact same as the old its not really.. wat yous think??

Julesie

It's up on Lovells now.

Still some products awaiting pictures though and it seems the jersey won't be available for delivery until 8th October.

I have to say it's not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Don't post in text speak. You have a keyboard. Use it.

Thats not too bad actually. Very similar to the old one. Kind of looks like a modern skintight version of the old amateur-era jersey with the simple colour scheme and shade of green.

Same deal as last time. Playing shirt replica is player-fitting and the retail range will be looser as the last range was.
So no need to worry

Even with the looser fit some of us still have to worry.

they're going up to 3XL so no need for any retired props to worry

All in all, I'm quite happy with the new jersey although it's practically identical to the canterbury skintight efforts. The black training one looks great, i'm sure it'll be a big seller !

Not a whole lot to it. Decided I would get it a few months back but looking at it now i'm thinking probably no. Might change my mind when I see it up close though.
