Connacht Rugby have unveiled their new Home, Away and European jerseys for the 2020/21 season. The new jerseys are created in partnership with BLK Sport.
The new home jersey features a blend of greens on the torso and main body, with a solid black shoulder and sleeve with fluorescent green trim. The jersey also features a unique silicon gel logo application and fluorescent green Connacht branding on the lower back.
The new home jersey was debuted on Saturday when Connacht Eagles took on Munster ‘A’ in a behind closed doors pre-season fixture at The Sportsground. The new Away jersey will be worn next weekend in the return fixture at Thomond Park.
The 2020/21 away jersey brings a clean and classic look with a solid black base, featuring gold trim and detailing. The jersey also features a unique silicon gel logo application and gold Connacht branding on the lower back.
The new European jersey is a mix of electric green, solid black and vibrant purple.
All three of the jerseys will be available exclusively in-store and online from Elverys Sport.
Connacht Rugby’s new principal partner, Genesys, features across the front of the shirts for the first time.
“This year’s range is the strongest we have had and the feedback from the players has been fantastic.,” said Connacht Head of Commercial and Marketing Brian Mahony.
“BLK have introduced some great garments this year, continuing to innovate the range. There is something there for everyone – from those who are looking for something subtle and smart, to those looking to make more of a statement. Our team have worked closely with BLK to deliver an exceptional product line for our supporters.”
“All three kits are strong, distinctive and different,” added Bruce Wood, Head of Brand Ireland at BLK Sport.
“We’ve worked hard with Connacht Rugby management to deliver a range the players and supporters will be excited about. We look forward to seeing the kits on-field both in the Guinness PRO 14 and in the Heineken Champions Cup tournaments.”
