    Or one style home and the other away? Small parts you can see of the crusaders and chiefs look more 99 than 96. Chiefs seem allergic to the 97 jersey for some reason

    Blues away jersey is a 96 remake. Unsure on the others at this stage.

    @chu84 yeah, the large maroon section definitely has 96 vibes

    In one of these crusaders looks very much the 96 but not the other- home and away I guess?

    the top one you can see what looks like a red collar but the second one on the cloths line looks like a modern black collar, so could be two different jerseys

    Yeah I dunno about that blues kit, like the theory but the execution looks off, the NG logos at the bottom of the 2nd one look hideous

    ok, so some teams have a separate heritage jersey and some are commemorating the 30th anniversary by making them their home jersey

    not sure how those work as a clash change jersey, its still black...just with less red

    "Guests at the launch were also treated to a special first look at the limited-edition Chiefs heritage jersey, which will be released to the public in January 2026. The heritage design draws on 30 years of Chiefs history and celebrates the players, coaches, staff, whānau and supporters who have carried the jersey since 1996."

    Some of the Chiefs' off-field gear is based on the '96 jersey

    @UpTheHarbs i do like the idea of a heritage supporters gear rather than just a jersey, thats how you get more poeple wearing the colours

    Good way of getting jersey sales no doubt, and good on them. Looks ok to me.
    I do have to admit it doesn't overly worry me, not being a fashion aficionado , I just want to be able to tell teams apart.

    So the Highlanders' heritage jersey is their home jersey.

    Presume the Blues, Crusaders and Hurricanes will wear theirs a few times.

    Hopefully the Chiefs don theirs at least once, unlike the past two seasons...
