Description

The British & Irish Lions tour to South Africa is nearly upon us and given how big the entire event has become over the years, there are of course a multitude of ways you can show your support wherever you are going to watch the matches. The Anglo-Welsh touring party after arriving in Wellington in 1908. Manager George Harnett is seated in the centre, with captain Arthur Harding holding a rugby ball to Harnett’s right. [Image: Getty]. If you like to keep things simple then this Lions t-shirt might be the model for you. Made from a blend of cotton and polyester, it is versatile enough to be used just about anywhere from the stadium, to the home. Importantly, wherever you are from, there is a colour for you as well as this shirt is available in white, green, red and blue to signify the four nations. Well, that did it. Even though the captain, Sammy Walker, was a great friend of his, Mayne knew that the management were going to tan his hide for that. So he scarpered. The team didn't see him for three days, till he turned up, still in his suit, to meet them on board the ship they were sailing home on.

A new edition to the 2021 range is this hooped jersey which we think can be work both and off the field.This protection has been paired with stretch and also breathability thanks to the lower section which transfers moisture away.

Given the tour will be succeeding a year that has been entirely awful and we want to forget it – we thought we would discuss three reasons to look forward to the British and Irish Lions tour of South Africa in 2021. What some of a certain vintage would call proper rugby shirts ceased to exist in Lions terms from the 1990s and heavy cotton jerseys have gone the way of the dodo. The 2021 British & Irish Lions Pro jersey is made from 100% recycled polyester but it is still red. In the midst of all this carnage there was an extremely irate hotel manager, shouting and screaming." For some reason, when Willie John, naked but for his pants and pipe, asked him what the matter was, the manager snapped and said he was going to call the police. If you are more of a singlet wearer when training, or you live somewhere that has a climate conducive to wearing one, then this Lions top could be the kit for you. Sponsors come and go on the front of the jersey but the basic kit has remained pretty constant in the modern game, although the replica prices get more eye-watering by the year.In 2021 The Lions face reigning World Champions South Africa over the three-test series. Five warm-up matches are lined up against some tough competition; Super Rugby sides Stormers, Sharks and Bulls are on the card alongside two invitational South Africa teams. Warren Gatland takes the head coach spot for the third time where his experience of coaching at the highest level will no doubt help him unite players from traditionally opposing teams. The side panels are excellent not only because of the dual coloured elastic but also in terms of freedom of movement. Finally the little details like the silicon grip on the elastic waistband, which keeps them in place, make these shorts a very high-quality product indeed. The shirts the first touring captains, Bob Seddon and Andrew Stoddart, wore were very different to those paraded by Johnson & Co. To go along with a good training top, why not also consider these official Lions match shorts too? Perfect for the pitch, the VapoDri fabric performs in all the ways you would want it too, especially in terms of evaporating sweat.

So began 109 years of raising Cain. The 1968 Lions were accused of being the "worst-behaved team ever to tour South Africa" by the Johannesburg Sunday Times. The sage rugby writer JBG Thomas refuted this on the grounds that, unlike at least one lot of their predecessors, "they have never set fire to a railway carriage". That may have been true. But a couple of them did incinerate a pile of blazers belonging to their team-mates in a bonfire on the tarmac at Kimberley airport after what was described as an "airborne cheese and wine party". Avenge 2009 – With a lot of talent going on the tour of 2009 – looking to avenge the shutout of 2005 tour –the Lions will be looking to overturn a 2-1 loss from last time. Quite right too. Modern media coverage does not allow players to get away with much, and professionalism means that even if they could, many of them wouldn't want to. Under Gatland and Warburton, the Welsh turned all-but teetotal at the 2011 World Cup, allowing those who "feel they need it" a "bottle or two" of beer after a match to relax. You couldn't wring too many war stories out of all that on the after-dinner speaking circuit. But everyone remembers England's dwarf-tossing, ferry-diving escapades. Most people won't need reminding, either, which team was two points away from making the final and which was dumped out in disgrace in the quarters. The British Lions before playing the 4th. match v. Argentina during their second tour to the country in 1927. [Image: Getty]. They have left a trail of havoc and stunned incredulity after three days in East London," thundered the Sunday Times. "Marked by severe drinking bouts, riotous behaviour at hotels and nightclubs. They left broken hotel doors, broken glasses by the dozen, unpaid liquor debts and girls in tears because of outright rudeness."

Canterbury British & Irish Lions Superlight Graphic T Shirt

If you want a pair of pants that can perform in any weather condition, then look no further than the Canterbury Tech Fleece design above. On those extra cold days, training in shorts can be an ordeal but this shouldn’t be the case because Canterbury makes pants that can be trained in too.

Much like the official Lions jersey, it has a low-profile white collar and it is also made from 100% recycled polyester which is a sustainable construction we can all get on board with.

As worn by the Lions in their training sessions, you can also get the official training shirt with one difference. On the shirt available to the public there is no Vodafone logo which is actually something we prefer. Show your support for the British & Irish Lions with the 2021 Official Rugby Shirts & Clothing.

It has not always been like this and the sea of red in the crowd at Lions matches could have been a sea of blue, a sea of red and white, or a sea of blue, white and red. They have been designed with weatherproofing in mind and this takes the form of several design flourishes, such as the Vaposhield fabric which has water repellent technology that repels water off the surface of the fabric. Additionally the hydrophobic upper section keeps the rain out when needed.
