Really! Some of the new Leinster training gear looks like it was inspired by Dublin Bus, and the hi-viz rubbish from last season was appalling. I'll admit the European jersey was pretty tasty, though.

It's not great but not awful.. just a bit bleh. Agree with DC on the stuff adidas are putting out, I'd prefer Canterbury any day

I wonder if each full square on the jersey represents a county??

What do the lines and dots mean?

That is an appalling photo and banner. What agency actually got money for that?
Also, will the general public actually know who any of those players are? They are (some of) our upcoming stars but is that what you use for a promo?

As to the jersey, I find all these soccer jerseys either meh or vomit-inducing. This one is simply meh, so that means it's' good.

And finally, a halfway decent women's version!

Best jersey in years. The training gear is vile but the jersey is quality. With Canterbury on the way out next season, it could be our last decent jersey in a while.

It really is. Great blue and no applied weird sh*t happening! County colours inside the collar add a bit of discreet interest without being too obvious. Really nice jersey – the best bit of Leinster gear I've seen in a long time.

I just hope the shorts are a darker shade of blue than the jersey and we have a two-tone kit and not monotone.

Well at least that yoke with the white shoulder pads has been given the elbow. In comparison, this new one looks the business, while the supporters version is a cracker.

The jersey is gorgeous alright, but I'd prefer if the shorts were a darker shade of blue. I'd rather we stuck to two-tone, rather than reverting to boring monotone.

Just saw the new alternate jersey on a banner ad for Lifestyle but not up on their site yet.

It's an improvement on last season's at least.

Could we maybe have dark blue shorts to contrast with the jersey, rather than both being the same as we saw in the pre-season matches?

Ha. I would rank them

1 "that yoke with the white shoulder pads"

2 Current Yellow collared one

3 Supporters one. (Hate anything that looks remotely like a polo shirt)

Not seen the other new one yet

There's another one? How many jerseys in active service have we got now? How will fans know which to wear so everyone is coordinated at the game?

To be fair, only buff supporters like me should be allowed to wear these jerseys anyway.
