Tigers showing off their new training kit



Who else is showing off new kits?

Nobody if they look like that

That's just the training kit. They have a tendency to do more interesting designs on that and then stay more traditional on the playing shirts. I don't mind it, looks alright. Not sure I'm buying it.

What is it? Some kind of nebula?

It’s the tear in the space-time continuum when Porter hits full speed.

I actually quite like it. We've had worse actual away kits in our time (not that that's a high bar to trip over for Leicester).

Yeah, cause the team is "out of this world".

Please don't remind me I've tried to scrub many from my memory.

And you all thought I was joking:

Saints new training kit. Unoffensive but bland. Preferred the black one from this year.

Does look like it's faded in the wash.

Does anyone actually buy the replica training kits?

Presumably so, as they bother to design and sell a new one every year.

I did the other year as Tigers actually had a really good design from a local artist on the shirts and the training (for some unnecessary reason Tigers referred to them as ringer shirts) showed it off better and came with no sponsor labels.

This one actually;

Speaking of iffy kits, what on earth is this:

Tigers are announcing theirs on Thursday and the teaser seems to hint at there being some 'flair' involved.

Rumours that the local artist who designed the Mandala style Tiger imagery last time is back onboard. As he's a season ticket holder I'm hoping it's going to be sympathetic in its originality.

Women's training top for Tigers, rumoured to be featuring some of the graphic to feature on the men's playing shirts.

Nice!

Currently causing issues for the club who only have it advertised is women's sizes but more than a few male fans would like it.

It is considerably better than the men's training kit.

I really quite like that. Back to the brighter green of the 90s, some actual stripes, tiger coming down to bite your nipple - that's nice!

That probably means the away kit will be execrable to balance it out though.

Well that's a refreshingly good kit that both should suit the traditionalists and those wanting something more innovative. The artist Mr Lad has come good again.

I'm guessing the offy will have nothing to complain about other than the price.

Yes, really nice. I think the previous shade of green was better all along.

Does look like the tiger is sucking on her boob, mind.

Yeah, they've not really thought the design through for the fuller-figured female rugby player/fan, have they? It's not an issue for smaller-chested people:


In other news, Quins have gone dull as ditchwater for their kit.


I mean, there is something to be said for a classic, simple, non-Tiger-engulfing-your-breast-with-its-mouth, timeless look, but it's not exactly something that will live long in the memory, is it?
