Canterbury have launched their new 'Made Stronger" Ireland rugby home jersey. The new home kit will be worn throughout the 2022/23 season, alongside a range of training wear for all fans.
The Men’s and Women’s team replica jerseys are available from June 23 through the IRFU’s Official Sports Retail Partner Intersports Elverys, in store and via Elverys.ie, and on Canterbury.com
According to the IRFU website: "The design of this year’s kit heroes the strength and unity of Irish players, fans and supporters against tough competitors, as both the Men’s and Women’s teams prepare for key test matches this summer. The Ireland Rugby Home Test jersey features Canterbury’s strongest ever neckline.

"A subtle hoop pattern gives the jersey a modern twist, reminiscent of the stripes worn by the first ever Irish test rugby team who took to the field against England in February 1875. Deep Mint is used as a bright, energising new shade of green across both the Men’s and Women’s jerseys.
"Canterbury prides itself on making elite performance kit for some of the toughest teams in rugby. The durable, quick-drying and moisture wicking VapoDri+ material gives a premiere performance, while the offset raglan sleeve flexes effortlessly, offering maximum flexibility when the ball is in play.
"With an eye on the environment, the jersey is made from part-recycled fabric. Underlined with the words ‘Made Stronger’, the new campaign celebrates the incredible Irish rugby supporters who are known all over the world for their passion, sense of fun and commitment to the game."
The new jersey will be worn for the first time by the men’s team in their midweek game against the Maori All Blacks on June 29, before it’s worn for their first Test against the New Zealand at Eden Park on July 2.
The men's and women's pro jersey starts at £75 while there is a classic men's jersey coming in at £60. A new Test jersey for both men and women is £95.
