2024 Super Rugby jerseys
-
i always forget about 99 just because the AB's moved to adidas that year and super teams in 2000
-
@Kiwiwomble ha yeah true it's a bit trippy. Crusaders forgot to mention that the heritage design was also used in 99 and the Landers posted a jersey history thing a while back and got their info wrong.
-
also, the idea of wearing the same jersey for 3 years is a little foreign
-
Saw this has leaked
-
@Kiwiwomble why are teams leaving it so late to bring out heritage jerseys? Surely you bring them out earlier in the season so the fans can buy them.

No idea, surely sell them all year and make more money !

another sad indictment that the best option (the only?) we had when adidas didn;t renew was someone that would generally give prety off the shelf templates (Baring the chiefs because they're the only team with a true design language)...and couldnt deliver one of the big selling points
maybe its time for each franchise to do their own kits deals, might have been easier for one of the companies to only do one or two teams
-
@Kiwiwomble from what I understand the franchises were free to do their own but all decided to sign on with Classic.

Makes sense they would get a better deal for all 5 rather than individually
-
@Machpants im not sure its that simple as even at club level we have brands that will do us better deal just snag the deal off of one of the other brands, surely Dynasty or gilbert would have been down to have one or two of them
if true though it shows how route one their thinking is, it stops as how much they pay per unit...and not the quality of the product or the level of design effort they going to put in....and how those things might actually result in more sales

maybe thats how auckland got their heritage jersey out early, maybe they signed on first?

im kind of hoping this is just the start of moe regular changes so we see different takes, still waiting for one of the NZ teams to lock in a design language (stripes, hoops, quarters or the brumbies deal) rather than just a colour
