Irish Rugby commemorative Jersey down to €99 at Elverys

Sheep Shagger · 2015-10-11 10:53:03

Still €150 everywhere else, only ever made in Large size and not really (I think a test) designed to be actually worn. Pretty sure the 3 plus code (20% off) won't work. I stupidly bought one when they first came out paying full price :(…

Doesn't look like there is a 3 logo on the front.

This is the commemorative RWC 2015 test jersey in a presentation box, with no corporate logos, in size Large only.
€99 is a good price if you're interested in such a thing, as it's €150 direct from the IRFU shop:

You used to be able to buy just the jersey on its own (in a variety of sizes) there too, but I'm not seeing them offered any more; perhaps they're all sold out.

I don't get it. It is pretty much the same as the regular jersey, but it comes in a box, so its twice the price?

The real things are completely different from the replicas jerseys. Rotten to wear by the way.

At least Dick Turpin had the decency to wear a mask.

It's a player's jersey. If Tyrion Lannister put the large size on, it'd be too small for him as a normal jersey.

The "test" bit of the item description refers to the fact that this is a genuine players jersey as would be worn by a professional Irish rugbyist in a 'Test Match'.
It's a commemorative collectors edition though, so it lacks the little pouch on the upper back for the GPS/telemetry equipment and has no corporate logos, but it does have a little hologram 'certificate of authenticity' badge on the lower left front edge.
As stated above, sizing conforms to the current style for professionals of having the shirt very tight, so it may be somewhat unflattering on someone who doesn't have a professional athlete's physique.

These jerseys were definitely available until quite recently without the presentation box and in a variety of sizes (S, M, L, XL, at least) at around the €80-90 mark if I recall correctly, but I can't see them listed anywhere anymore.

I'd normally wear a Large in this sort of thing, but I went for the Extra Large in this jersey.

Its not a players jerseys, as their shirt has the match details on it and a GPS pocket etc, also their's is one or two other different details in it too. Think of this as more of a special edition of the already out RWC replica. ðŸ‘

Crazy money for a shirt, I'm going to wait until after the Argentina game to see if Joe calls me up to replace one of the injured front row so I can get one in XXL for free....

I meant in material wise. Players jerseys are a lot tighter than replica ones.
