New Kits 2012 Season

[welshglory]

Black and 'steel blue', being released 17 August.

So just a re-release of this years one? If so i don't really mind i suppose, just seems a bit strange for the Ospreys to go down that route!

Steel blue is a bit darker, I think. The Ospreys press release described it as a 'new-look' shirt, so it must be a new design.

Thanks for the link, don't know how i missed that, i pretty much go on that site every day to see if there is any news!

I think you are misinterpreting it however.

They say:

Following on from the success of last year's jersey launch at the Quadrant Shopping Centre, also in Swansea, where hundreds of fans turned up to meet their heroes and catch their first glimpse of the new-look black and steel blue shirt at the first ever public jersey launch event, it looks set to be an even bigger and better event this time around.

That sounds more like the past tense to me. So it could/probably be a new colour scheme this year.

 

[Draggs]

Aye, it does.
My mistake, was just skimming through.
Cheers.

Am I the only one who doesn't wear rugby shirts out and about? I'd be tempted if it weren't for the ugly ass advertising all over them. The Ospreys shirt is always a good example of them sticking advertising all over the bloody things (arms, collar, back, front, everywhere). This is fine for the actual player shirts, but I really don't want to look like an walking advertising billboard! There's often little attempt to blend the advertisement into the design either, with the new Scarlets shirt a good example, the Dyfed Steels logo is butt ugly and horrendously prominent.

On another note. I hope the Ospreys have changed their shorts design this year. Whatever the circle was on their asses last season (more advertisement?) looked horrendous!

I do, but generally my Wales ones (As only the 1 sponsor) My Scarlets one I like but I agree on the dyfed steels logo its massive.. I dont mind adverts as such for the matchday replica's or whatever the club calls them but at least make them have all the same stuff on the actual kit. For example I got the "matchday shirt" of the home shirt, picture showed that turquise circle they have on the left shoulder, yet the shirt didnt have that also claimed it was "tight fit" so got a large as normal and its baggy as **** (all badges when it arrived claimed it was the matchday version though :/ For the "replica" Imo they don't really need them.. Either way on with the new kits

So the new Ospreys kit is going to have the blue in it??? Never really liked this/last seasons kit, seemed like a Glasgow rip off.

Probably biased, but I loved the Black and purple, thought that kit was wicked Bring back the purple, cause that was wicked

Saw a "different" all purple kit in a rugby shop in Cardiff last week, but suddenly realized that it was England 7's - The stubborn patriot inside wouldn't allow my hands to touch it, let alone try it on. Shame, cause I do love purple

I don't think so, it was my mistake.
Good on you, TVH. You have chosen... wisely.

New worst of the season, who thought those shades of blue went with the amber?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

The blue by themselves would have looked really good, but the amber.....

 

[welshglory]

Is that the away or European?

 

[TrueSlawter]

I dont mind it.. without the amber it looks better but I dont mind it with it tbh.

I like it...

 

[cyRil]

Is anyone particularly surprised that I think it looks nice?

 

[BRSTLDRGN]

Not really

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

If I saw that on sale and I had a bit of money I would buy that, instantly making wasps my favorite Premiership team... while they survive.

 

[cyRil]

I bought last season's change strip for 15 quid on ebay the other day. Never in a million years did I think I'd ever buy a Wasps shirt! Turning to **** instantly makes a team more likable!!

 

[Kiwiwomble]

i have to say i like it too, more than the home kit anyway which really needs some sort of stripe

[BRSTLDRGN]

Away one is really nice, good job Kukri
