2021 NPC Kits

[Stargazer]

@yeetyaah Was going to say something similar. It looks like a training jersey or just a team polo shirt.

@Kiwiwomble It may just be a photoshoot for their merchandise page.

rugbysouthland It's back! 🔥 Who's keen to nab themselves a 2021 SIT Zero Fees Southland Stags replica training jersey based off the infamous 1993-95 jersey? They're on sale early August thanks to our mates @paladinsports_nz !. Watch this space 👀

@shark you might be out of luck sorry

Blah if that's the collar situation for the men's jersey as well. If Miles Toyota is the major men's sponsor as well though at least thats less intrusive on the jersey than a giant white banner with Ray White all over it.

I’m loving seeing teams go back to more traditional/retro type kits.
Infinitely better than the majority of rubbish ‘professional’ designers come up with these days.

@gunner agreed, the Canterbury ranfurly shield one last year was slick

hopefully the proper jersey is the same

@kiwiwomble They've been on sale since the Taranaki game

[Yeetyaah]

Taranaki seem to have a throwback kit. Sorry about the thing on the photo.

[Tim]

@yeetyaah Looks great

[Kiwiwomble]

@yeetyaah text on the front, we think a commemorative one or the normal one

also, does Yarrows need to have "taranaki" under it?....its the Taranaki jerseys...its kind of implied

[Stargazer]

I hope for the players, that Taranaki gets rid of the butt hole advertising.

slightly different collar on the mens jersey

[Stargazer]

@kiwiwomble That looks a lot like the jersey they usually wear for preseason games?

[Kiwiwomble]

@stargazer really? i didn't know they had a different preseason jersey, was basing it more groups of small stripes but now i look it is different to the pic above

they dont explain what the writing is so not sure if this is just a commemorative jersey of some sort or otago's new one, better than last years either way

Correct

Dynasty Sports tell me the Canterbury kit will be available in a couple of weeks. Its a bit stupid that they don't have this available in the lead up to the season starting. I'm heading to Hanmer tomorrow, taking a group of 50, and I know there are a few people who would gear-up if they could including myself.

[Kiwiwomble]

happy enough with this, like when we get the strips somewhere on it

Champions of the World have the new Canterbury kit (jersey, training tee and polo). Tried it on the other day and just ordered the playing jersey. Much better than last year's but still room for improvement (I'd love to see a collar!)
