@Kiwiwomble interesting that the jersey styles are different for each team. Highlanders have a completely different look to their collar when you compare it to the Blues.
As long as they stow the abortion that was the ABs RWC23 collar that's a start

@Canes4life At least the training jersey has a little bit of the provinces on the cuffs of the sleeves.
The jerseys aren't bad at all! I never buy SR gear, but that away jersey is looking good.

@frugby it seems a little thin to suggest that these teams are claiming a completely different identity just by changing the shade of the colour they use, the HIghlanders arent separating themselves from Otago/southland just by having different shades of blue and maroon, they are 100% trying to have a connection to their regions by keeping these colour combos that are similar to their home unions
I'm not suggesting that at all, the Highlanders quite literally talk of the connections of the colours... but to suggest that teams need to have x colours to represent x teams is a little bit silly.
Would you rather the Highlanders play a game in Invercargill or have half the jersey maroon?

The Blues should have had Caleb posing in that jersey.
I think they picked Rieko because he was born in 1997.
I thought they could have had a photo with Eroni, who wore that styled-jersey himself.

@Yeetyaah i much prefer the round neck to the one the other teams have....would prefer a folder over collar like so many teams had at the world cup (not the AB's one) but not a fan of...what do we call it, v-neck pseudo collar
all a bit moot for me as i very much doubt i will pick up one of these jerseys...even the retro one will depend on fit etc, will be interested in supporters gear though

Other thing, is these kits are for 2024 only. Smart money says you don't want to burn all your good ideas in the first year... for example, no idea when heritage round is but if the Highlanders are playing away from home, they may actually bring out a version of the first green shirt, holding back the godly 98-99' jersey for the year after.
