It's a blast from the past mixed with a dash of the present as the Stormers and adidas rekindle their old flame. After an eight-year hiatus, adidas is back, stitching up the Stormers with new kits for the 2025-26 season. The home and away jerseys are not just sportswear; they are banners of heritage and unity, waving the mantra ‘In it together’.
The home kit, dubbed ‘Reunite the Stripes’, sticks to the classic bold blue and white hoops, paired with black shorts and socks. It's more than just a jersey; it's a celebration of legacy and Cape pride. On the flip side, the away kit ‘Remix the Stripes’ throws a curveball with its vibrant pink, lime, and cyan hues, paying a colorful tribute to the Bo-Kaap's rich cultural tapestry.
“The iconic blue and white hoops are synonymous with Cape rugby, while the away jersey pays homage to the Bo-Kaap, which has produced so many passionate rugby people. Our players and supporters will wear this kit with pride.”
John Dobson, the Stormers' director of rugby, emphasized the significance of adidas’ return for both players and fans. The partnership is a powerful nod to both tradition and community spirit, resonating deeply across the stands and streets of Cape Town.
The new threads will hit the shelves with the home jersey launching on 19 September and the away jersey making its debut on 3 October. Get ready to shell out R999 to snag one of these beauties from the Stormers’ official shop or selected retailers.
Whether you're a die-hard Stormer or just a lover of fine rugby aesthetics, these jerseys promise to turn heads both on and off the field. So mark your calendars, rugby aficionados, and prepare to don those stripes with pride.
