All Blacks 2008 Presentation Suit

Country: New Zealand #051875 Why play rugby when you can live it? Who else has the haka? Where else would the first World Cup be played? Who else would win it? What team would you expect to unleash Jonah Lomu on the world? Who dominates the World Sevens Series, the World U21s, and the Women's World Cup? What's that you say? It's still just play? Well think about this: Where else can a rugby tour spark widespread civil unrest? Where else can the team doctor write a book? Where else do they have a rugby channel on TV? The black jersey has menaced opponents for a more than a century now. It took the Originals more than six months to complete that first All Black tour in 1905, but they made it worth their while. They reinvented the way rugby was played. They changed the way the Home Nations thought about the Colonies. They launched a legend. And the game remains at the heart of New Zealand's identity: Ka Mate! Ka Mate! Ka Ora! Ka Ora! (I die! I die! I live! I live!). Don't wear All Blacks gear unless you mean it.
