This 2000 Blues Super Rugby jersey marks a turning point in New Zealand rugby history as the first Blues design produced by Adidas after the NZRU switched from Canterbury at the turn of the century. A classic late-90s/early-2000s look, it features the traditional deep Blues colourway with the original Ford sponsor logo across the chest.
As with most jerseys of this era, the fragile Ford logo shows signs of wear, as these prints typically could not withstand even delicate washing cycles. To preserve it further, this jersey should be hand washed only. The logo can be professionally replaced if desired, but keeping the original adds authenticity.
Aside from the sponsor wear, the jersey is in very good overall condition and fits true to size. A must-have piece for Blues or Super Rugby collectors looking for one of the first Adidas-produced New Zealand club jerseys.
Worldwide shipping and Afterpay available.
