Dragons launch new kits for the coming season

Dragons have revealed their brand new home and away kit for the 2017/18 season.

Katie Vizard | 22/08/2017

This is the first kit to feature the refreshed Dragons brand following the recent takeover by the Welsh Rugby Union.

The new home jersey has retained the familiar Dragons colour scheme of black and red, with amber trim. The away jersey introduces an exciting new amber and red colour scheme, which serves as a unique contrast from the home kit.

The design on both jerseys interlock giving the impression of dragonhide or roman scale armour giving a nod to the region’s Roman history.

The kit design features sublimated logos which show off both the new Guinness PRO14 logo and Monmouthshire Building Society. The new Dragons main sponsor are showcasing their new brand and logo, which will feature both on the chests and collars of the Dragons home and away jerseys until 2020. 

The home kit is completed with black and red shorts with socks to match, while the away kit includes red and amber socks plus red shorts with amber detailing.

Commenting on the announcement, Pete Grzonka, Dragons Commercial Director said: “It’s always an exciting time designing a new shirt and we have worked closely alongside both Gilbert and the WRU to make sure that we capture the history of the region through the home design and colours.

We have moved away from the blue design for our away kit, as we felt that it was a good opportunity for a fresh new look through the use of red and amber.

“We would also like to thank Gilbert, who have pulled out all the stops, following our take over and rebrand, to make sure that we have a finished product, on Rodney Parade shelves for the first game.

Monmouthshire Building Society, Chief Executive, Will Carroll added: “We are delighted to support the Dragons for the next three seasons. I think the shirt looks fantastic, and we cannot wait to see some exciting rugby being played at Rodney Parade.”

Both kits will be available from the Rugby Heaven Superstore at Rodney Parade during the week leading up to our first home game against Leinster on Saturday 2nd September.
