confirmed, don't mind all except the Chiefs and Landers, Saders and Landers both without sponsors too

[Yeetyaah]

@Kiwiwomble IMO the Chiefs one is the best but needs colour, probably just bias tho. Highlanders one is probably the worst rugby jersey I've ever seen.

[Kiwiwomble]

@Yeetyaah Chiefs with Red/Black/Yellow stripes and a colour badge would make it 100% better, I don't think ours is the worst personally...its just kind of nothing

[Stargazer]

Hurricanes

White shirt with yellow collar and cuffs; black or dark blue(?) shorts If you look at the black adidas stripes on the shirt, you can see that those paint brush strokes on the white are closer to dark blue than grey.

@Stargazer Both jerseys are light coloured? I liked the black alternate over most of the recent ones.

Having all teams with white alternate strips is just more evidence of laziness from Adidas

[Stargazer]

Blues

White shirt with steel blue collar and cuffs; the details on the jersey seem to be more light blue, just like the shorts (although that may be because of the sun.

[Bovidae]

The Chiefs should have just kept the 2020 away jersey rather than the new grey jersey.

[Stargazer]

@canefan I don't think it's laziness. It has to do with "no plastic/clean oceans" theme.

Still look pretty plain. Is that the point, to go easy on the dye?

[Stargazer]

Chiefs

Predominantly grey jersey, grey collar and cuffs. Grey shorts.

I don't think the Chiefs jersey is as bad as it initially looked. The detail is nice. Just very boring lack of colour.

Is it? Or have they learnt that we actually want to see which team is which?

Kind of makes sense to me, and avoids most of the clashes / similarities that we have seen in the past. White team will be the away team and there aren't any white home jerseys are there?

this is a mad idea, the alternate to a light (yellow) jersey being a dark colour :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

I think white makes sense for teams the teams with dark home jerseys, i'd like it if we got a better accent colour however, but the canes already have a light home jersey so something dark makes more sense to me

@Kiwiwomble 💯

[Stargazer]

Crusaders

White jersey, red collar and cuffs. Light grey details (but probably darker than on the first photo). Red shorts.

@Kiwiwomble Crusaders have their sponsor Hyundai on the jersey.

Yes it does, and that is nearly all of them, even with the Aussies and Saffas. Who have I missed?

As for the Canes, this can't be confused with white, surely?

[Kiwiwomble]

@Snowy maybe not straight up confused for but definitely more similar than a black jersey shown above

[Stargazer]

Highlanders

IMO, the ugliest away outfit: they seem to have mixed green and black, to get some sort of grey-green colour for the collar, cuffs and shorts. In this photo it looks more grey, but having seen the other photos, it's definitely some kind of green. On instagram people describe it as cowshit green.

Well I could certainly live with it against a white one. There have been matches where I have thought "who the fuck is that?". First one might have been your guys in bright green.

[canefan]

@Stargazer almost looks like combat olive drab

[Stargazer]

@canefan Only just too white to blend in with the pitch.
