    Sone of the technical innovations include

    1. made in a country where labour is cheap
    2. iron-on label that will peel off with time
    3. ridiculous price that requires a trip to the bank to increase the mortgage

      That jersey is better than last year. RWC jerseys generally have a better design because there's one less sponsor logo on it. That Altrad logo was quite big

      I never buy jersey's though so I guess my opinion doesn't matter

            The patterns are shit. I assume they'll be like previous jerseys and the scribbles won't be that visible in normal light

              That really is the new jersey? I saw some pics on socials this morning and thought it was a Wish advert.

                The jersey looks way nicer in this shot where the markings aren't obvious. The above photo looks like someone has just drawn all over the All Blacks jersey.

                    @Duluth Me and you both mate. Love the fact that others buy them, and I will buy ather supporters' gear at times, but never a jersey. Old fashioned in that way, earning the right etc.
                    And add to fact, it just has to be a Black jersey I pretty happy with whatever jersey is.

                      @Kiwiwomble the fern design used on the fabric is awful. I’m sure it won’t be as noticeable as the pictures but that rounded fern leaf design is terrible. How can a simple black jersey be stuffed up?

                        i think i could live with the fern design on a different template...or that template without the fern...but together i just cant get past hawaiian shirt / polo shirt

                          It looks like someone let their kid draw on it. The fern leaves are a weird shape. Not like the traditional design or like the real plant I don't think. I honestly thought it was a supporters polo.

                            Let's face other thing like picking team, most of us are pretty expert at designing jerseys etc until we have to. I bet when it on the field we won't notice it. Like when people didn't like collars etc, I never noticed them when team was playing, and honestly can't recall one jersey from another in different World Cups.

                              I don't like the collar. Looks like a polo shirt. The embossed pattern gives me flashbacks to 2019 so yeah nah. I'll stick to my 2011 and 2015 RWC models

                                "leading technical innovations" isn't that saying the same thing twice, or can you have non-leading innovations?

                                        Snail trail is very good analogy.

                                          why not just panels under the arms or just the arms rather than the hole shirt?
