Ahhh those were the days!!!!
Nice touch though having the letters, best bit of the shirt.
I've bought the new training shirt and really like that, the black caters much better for my spillages than the grey...oops sorry platinum, shirt would.

Interesting Freudian slip - given that sponsorship is a bit like selling your soul to the devil.

Was thinking of getting one myself, but have only seen them on lovell rugby, where i assume they're cotton, not player quality. Am I right, or did you get yours somewhere else?

The ones on sale in the Tigers shop at the stadium and in Leicester are available in cotton & PQ shirts. PQ are very nice if a little pricey.
On a slightly different note, our new away strip does have its benefits. I can now say that my hair has gone platinum. Sounds much better methinks

But only if you (we ) give it a slightly pink rinse!
I'm not exactly eating my words or my hat (and the stars are still an act of supreme 'hubris' as the ancient Greeks would say - pride coming before a fall), but the new kit did look a bit better 'in action' than the launch static photo (perhaps Tigers need to think through who are going to be the best 'models).
And there's still not a sign of them in the shop(s). Perhaps they'll go on an extra season if the punters only have access to them for a season and a half rather than the supposed two full seasons? Some hope - wallets out again (those who choose to indulge).
ST in new Clubhouse stand ... sadly, my back's no longer up to standing :-(

I got mine from the club shop. The 1st PQ shirt i've bought but i'm very impressed with it, they didn't have any cotton in stock when i went (Leinster match).

I thought that and i expected them to make me hotter (tempreture not looks) than the cotton ones. The shirt has been cooler (again temp not looks) than the cotton one. They feel like the material that rugby league shirts are made out of. I really like them and will get the new home shirts in PQ next season.
