Connacht Rugby in partnership with BLK Sport, have unveiled their new alternate jersey for the 2018/19 season.
The new jersey is made with BLK’s exclusive Exotek fabric throughout the main body bound with reinforced cover stitch and lycra paneling. Exotek was created exclusively by BLK to enhance athlete performance, while maximising player maneuverability.
The new alternate jersey draws inspiration from the deep Atlantic Ocean, with a solid navy body, silver lycra paneling and logos, finished with striking fluro green piping and cover stitch detail. The jersey also features a unique silicon gel logo application and fluro green Connacht branding on the lower back.
’We are delighted with our new alternate jersey for the 18-19 season.,” said Brian Mahony, Head of Commercial and Marketing at Connacht Rugby. “BLK have yet again delivered a jersey that is both eye catching and fresh whilst still representing Connacht Rugby.’’
“We’re very excited about this year’s new alternate jersey,” added Bruce Wood, Head of Brand Ireland at BLK Sport. “We’ve worked closely with Connacht management to develop a new jersey that we feel the fans and players will really enjoy.”
