I like

I like quite a bit. Major improvement in the away shirt after last years fiasco. It's strange that they both have the same theme of using the Connacht flag colours but are poles apart in terms of delivering a nice looking jersey.

I like the home shirt, but it seems a bit busy. There are almost too many shades of green going on, but overall it's a very nice looking shirt.

Overall I'm really glad they haven't gone backwards in terms of producing a shirt, we've had lovely shirts for the past 3 years and this is an excellent next step.

They could have done a launch combined with the promised ST holder day at sportsground last weekend and sold a lot of new kit to boot!

For sure............. not much of a big build up to that launch.

Great to finally hear, but they really dropped the ball on building up to it.

Message on Connacht FB page "RELOAD AT 3PM FOR KIT REVEAL"

Fwiw the last official launch was a year ago tomorrow. And the season started a week earlier last year!

There were pictures and press in town last year so I wouldn't be entirely surprised if something similar was held again with the players who haven't gone to france?

Unless they do it tonight or 1st thing in the morning, the first we will see of the new Jerseys is when the lads step out onto the pitch to play Castres at 6pm tomorrow. :woohoo:

Why is a official launch before any of the new season games soooooo difficult.

Relaxed six pack!! :lol: I like that one Shelflife.

Comfort fit, for the man with the relaxed six pack !!

Fully with you on this one.

What about raising this at the AGM. Think min order for a set of jerseys is 20 or so.

I think we could design one (site below do cotton jerseys) and get a least 20 Clan members to stump up for an "official" Clan jersey

It'd be nice to have a Clan jersey, but what I really want it our kit manufacturers to make at least one jersey that is not Player Fit style, and more suited to slightly older supporters (in which I include myself these days). I'm not 21 anymore and really I don't want to be doing an impression of Jimmy Five Belly's at games any time soon.... :S

Don't forget alternate ERC shirt. Shame we only had one last season, the purple one from the season before was pretty sweet.

I guess there are no real clashes with our group rivals, but what if we ended up qualifying for a knock-out stage in the Amlin and drew a Leicester, LI or Treviso?

5-6 different Jerseys would be an average amount based on previous seasons I would think.

Would like to see a classic Green Supporters shirt as well, with long sleeve option in medium cotton and with a collar...
