Stronger in green. Beautiful in green.

The new Connacht Rugby jersey has been unveiled for the 2017/18 season and, heaven above, you’re going to want to be sitting down when you see it.

The kit is available to buy from Thursday 20 July but you can’t see it hanging around in shops for too long upon its initial release.

Made by renowned Australian apparel company, BLK, the 2016 Pro 12 champions are set to be kitted out in glorious fashion. With the new design and fitting which boasts a range of different sponsors, the Connacht Rugby jersey is genuinely a work of art in its own right.

Right, are you ready?

Because we’re not pissing about here – this really is a good’un.

The back

Bundee Aki is going to look good in that bad boy for another two years. Ah, so will Muldoon and Dillane in fairness.

And it’s a definite upgrade from last season’s effort too.

This is what we come to expect from BLK though – they’re a trustworthy jersey maker.
