The home jersey is lovely, the away jersey is just gorgeous. We can only imagine nightclubs in Limerick will soon have to change their dress code to ensure that the throngs of lads and lasses sure to get the shift will be allowed in wearing that piece of haute couture.
Munster's official spiel to go along with the jerseys sounds like something Vivienne Westwood would come out with to publicise her summer line and rightly so.
The home jersey embodies a deeper, enriched mix of power and collegiate red. The names the six Munster counties are featured in the nape of the military style collar with the club motto, ‘To the Brave and Faithful Nothing is Impossible’ embroidered into the inside neck of the jersey. This jersey epitomises the Red Army: loyal, brave and intimidating.
The alternate kit takes a more modern approach to the provincial tartan with black, dark grey and onix colouring standing bold against the bright red of the logos and jersey numbering. As per the home jersey, the alternate kit also features the club motto in the nape of the military style collar along with the names of the six Munster counties.
It's far from 'onix' they were reared but nonetheless we're fully on board.
