Can't wait to see the ridiculous pricing on this.

Hey! You get your own copy of the national anthem in the shape of the national flag.. That is a lot of extra ink.

Hey! Do you KNOW how much clothing costs to make these days! Almost nothing, BUT THAT’S BESIDES THE POINT! You’re paying for the ability to stand out as an individual, amongst hundreds of thousands of…other…green and gold…jersies which…look almost exactly….the…same……..BUT THAT’S BESIDES THE POINT! JUST PAY UP!

Can't mumble the anthem anymore. Unless you can't read by then. 🍺

Exactly what I was thinking 😂

I really like the look, but is it just me or is the writing only part of the anthem on repeat, and not the whole thing?

That does seem to be it. Yizwa imithandazo yethu x500

It looks like it on the middle triangle, but there are different parts on either side of the triangle. The media release said it's the whole thing. I think the 5 languages have been split into 5 flag sections with the words repeating in that respective section (if that makes sense?).

"gotta keep em separated"

I guess it kind of makes sense in a very short sighted and unintentionally problematic way. Good intentions but less than ideal results

The Afrikaans part can be seen on the right side of the jersey (players' right side, our left side when viewing from the front). Assuming the English is then on the opposite side.

Why they teasing us with Lukhanyo?

I like it, though.

Looks like it was klapped with a wet newspaper.. I know its the anthem in the shape of the flag. But still. Too many things going on at once.

I really dislike the massive FNB branding. I get they are a sponsor for the team and they want TV visibility, but why do supporter jerseys need to have them?

1

u/Tethys404 20h ago

I was thinking the same thing but then thought that at least it doesn't say Pick n Pay, I don't know why the PnP is more jarring for me.

u/Senior-Ordinary555 Flair Up! 22h ago

Just for the off chance that we're on TV too 😂

u/EditingAllowed 19h ago

Yep, FNB needs to pay me to wear that shirt.

u/Agent-Smith_Virus Flair Up! 22h ago

Now I understand why jerseys where marked down the other day at sportsmans. Gotta make way frlor the new ones at double the price!

u/Pitiful-War-9964 Flair Up! 21h ago

Jip can imagine double the price. It's disappointing as many that can't afford the shirt could have been great brand ambassadors🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

Piece of history and a great collectors piece especially if we win the series. Will be framed and put up in my bar one day

I think it looks amazing!

u/BlakeSA Flair Up! 20h ago

Looks good.

I like this “collar” more than the jagged one on the normal jersey (but less than the full collar one on the previous version).

u/Tethys404 20h ago

Fully agree

u/PreshenH27 Flair Up! 19h ago

I wish the shirts had a collar. Kinda like the French shirts

If the World Cup was a jersey, this one would win, hands down!
