Rd 3 is the Culture Round, so hopefully we see different jerseys.

ive always thought doing versions of one of they're unions (dont come for me, i know its no longer offical!) for a heritage or culture round would sell, We'd do a southland one, wellington a turbos, saders a west coast etc...sell well in those areas that might not normally feel represented and would definitely get people talking

@Kiwiwomble home jerseys to be the same, some with new collars. Away jerseys could be different.

[Yeetyaah]

There are also new heritage jerseys coming, but made with a cotton/poly blend this time. Classic put it out to some jersey collectors and got that response.

that could work for me, keep the home jersey but those of us that like seeing new stuff can check out away/heritage/special supporters jerseys

[Yeetyaah]

@Kiwiwomble yeah agree, hurts the wallet a little as a collector though. Gotta catch em all or some shit.

and the other angle is a pretty shit collection of all you have if half a dozen plain blue jerseys

[Yeetyaah]

@Kiwiwomble hahaha don't have to worry about that as a Chiefs supporter, though I do have 2 variants of the blue 2020 away jersey, one match worn in the u20s and one match prepped with tags.

What's the rationale?

[Kiwiwomble]

@gt12 id assume they just want old design to have old materials so as close to the original as possible

I mean, why cotton/poly? Does it wear better or feel more traditional?

[Yeetyaah]

@gt12 it's what the 90s CCC jerseys are made from.

So, just more traditional? It's not based on wearability?
I'm asking because one thing I don't like about the Adidas stuff is that over time the stuff starts to smell. I reckon the Parley stuff is the worst for it.

i follow a due on insta who reviews all the League stuff and he was raving about that jersey

[Yeetyaah]

@gt12 I guess so? In the jersey scene people circle jerk hard over cotton/poly jerseys. Never noticed any smell from my Adidas jerseys.
