Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Possibly a bit of a stretch to say vertical stripes from that as it looks very much like a frequency histogram of a sound wave and moved in unison with the audio, no?
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

True, but quite a few comments on Twitter have suggested that a few people have heard rumours of vertical stripes

My mate was involved in the launch video (filmed at a school he's connected to) - I asked him what the kit was like, bearing in mind he's going to be in the video...

"Dunno mate, couldn't really tell you. Stripes perhaps?"

Needless to say, he's not a Tigers fan.

Well it probably isn't hideous then if it isn't that memorable.

Or he's taking any embargo seriously?

Wouldn’t be the first time the clubs had vertical stripes, wouldn’t be against it. Unique but also a nod back to our past.

Not a vertical stripe to be seen, I can't remember one either

According to Wikipedia we had vertical stripes from 1891 to 1895.

A quick search shows this... https://www.past-to-present.co.uk/shop/ ... it-history

Flash is quite right - Tigers did have vertical stripes in the 1890s.
Not sure I am liking the look tho'!

Interesting pic that. Best and worst? I like the 2007-09. Hated the 2012-13. Away kits too weird to comment on!

And it's quite inaccurate.

The home kit marked "2007-9" is actually just a repeat of the (correct) 2005-7 picture. The home kit labelled 2009-10 is actually the 2007-2009. The 2009-11 home kit isn't actually pictured; the one labelled 2010-12 is actually the last Cotton Traders home shirt that was only used for a single season from 2011-12. It was used until the last match of the regular season in 2011-12 and the Canterbury kit was used in the semi-final and final.

And they've included 3 random training shirts from the 00s. :smt017

And they're trying to sell that? That's poor...

Could this be a crafty ploy by Steve to make us look taller with the vertical stripe and hence win more lineout ball? :smt031
It could make the scrum look really long!! :smt002

I love last year's blue multi colour shirt. Missed out on buying one due to finances. Never found one on eBay either!
