RWC jerseys

Is 100% cotton?

Most definitely not - some sort of polyester I'd say

Edit - just checked, it's acetate whatever that is ...

A type of rayon, often used us a cheaper alternative to silk in dresses, gowns, and underwear.

Samoa Home and Away:

Geez, one of the jerseys you expect to feature cultural elements & it's plainer than Fiji's "home" strip (ain't nobody topping their "away" strip, it's off the charts, looks like what I wore to wifey's luau-themed 40th).

I love the Blue one it’s a classic but the alternate could have been anything.

Gotta say these seem shit.

Love a collar

Double check: add online said acetate.

Tag on jersey says 100% polyester: same as the replica one rebel is selling for $129 so they probably come out of the same factory

I dunno - the collars on the new jerseys (not just Wales) seem a little too "golf shirt" to me.

Did Wales just get a deal on left over Wasps kit and decide that'd be good enough for an away jersey?

They're all very 'vicar'

And what's the point? I prefer to looks like a golf shirt more than a football shirt

It looks like the supporters shirts they put out. Just something different about it that doesn't seem right.

Hahah their away top makes them look like Proud Boys in Fred Perry.

I was as keen as anyone for rugby jerseys to go back to having collars, but now I'm having second thoughts. Watching the Boks and the ABs play in their new jerseys, it just seemed a bit weird for them to be playing a high-intensity, hugely physical game in polo shirts...

The Boks and the Pumas beat the Wallabies wearing polo shirts, so the no collar shirt didn't helped the WBs lol

No one is attributing success to collar type.

We should also bring back the magnet bracelets.

I thought it had a Fred Perry look too. Possibly appealing to the casual lager lout?
