kiwi_canadian Posted August 23, 2012 Author Share Posted August 23, 2012 New Pumas Jersey.Back of the stripAnd the alternate strip... Must say that I think Adidas did a better job than Nike did with these.Or perhaps it's these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidson Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I think the bottom two are stop gap kits taken from template. They seem to have only worn them for two games after switching from Adidas. I don't think the new kits were done at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintsfan Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Canterbury have gone back to basics for the England kit. Good to see the navy socks returning. Not much else to report! Here are the Sevens home kit, away kit, sevens away kit and home kit all together.Personally I think that navy is a better colour for the away kit, but the red colour is fine. Some have likened it to the red currant Arsenal kit from a few seasons back. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to wear, many many years ago, their club socks, so you'd have 15 players with different socks, a la the Barbarians. I don't know why navy was chosen as the sock colour, but the England football and cricket teams have also used navy blue in the kit as well.

I don't know why navy was chosen as the sock colour, but the England football and cricket teams have also used navy blue in the kit as well. (shorts and caps respectively).I worked for the RFU back in 2004. The reason the England team adopted white/white/navy was that these were the colours of Rugby School (the birthplace of game) at the time. When playing intramural games, the boys would wear the coloured caps of their house (think Griffindor, Hufflepuff etc) out of which was born the 'Cap' system still in practice. NB. A cap is awarded to a player for playing a full test match.Here is a short video that explains this and more: http://youtu.be/-A-mhI0PMBk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davidson Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 It's odd that they have replaced the French and English team contracts with Argentina. I can't think of any other international teams they supply offhand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
