This 1999 New Zealand All Blacks jersey is a rare Adidas sample piece from the transitional era when the All Blacks moved from Canterbury to Adidas, with Adidas experimenting with designs and construction ahead of full production. Featuring the old-school Adidas trefoil logo, a full traditional white collar, and the classic All Blacks crest, this jersey blends heritage elements with early Adidas influence, making it markedly different from standard retail releases of the time. The presence of the Adidas sample tag further supports its status as a non-retail prototype from this pivotal moment in All Blacks kit history.

Tagged as 50″ but fitting closer to a modern medium, this jersey has a clean, timeless look that will appeal strongly to collectors who value rarity and originality over mainstream releases. Pieces like this were never intended for general sale, making them increasingly difficult to find more than two decades on. A standout option for anyone wanting a truly unique All Blacks jersey that reflects experimentation, transition, and a fascinating chapter in New Zealand rugby history.
