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.

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

@gt12 did you see the Kiwis 94 throwbacks sell out within hours?

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.

None of these words mean anything to me.

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.

@Kiwiwomble I have the white and its so sick.

@Kiwiwomble ya'll might need to change your detergent or check how they're being stored

never a problem for cotton stuff, i talked about it with people and its just a thing everyone knew

[Bovidae]

I do find the old CCC jerseys more comfortable to wear even if they are heavier. And they certainly last.

These are interesting - 'Touchdown Supporter Jersey'. They are in the merch shop for $90. A pleasant lack of advert logos and $70 cheaper than a full priced players replica Jersey. The big 96 is also on the back.

Blues claiming they are doing a new heritage jersey.

1996 perhaps?

Yep new heritage jerseys are coming made with the old school fabric as I mentioned above. I know which ones the Chiefs are doing so would assume the others might do the same era.
