With one month to go until the start of the new Heineken Champions Cup season, Bath Rugby – one of the oldest clubs in English rugby, competing in the Gallagher Premiership – and Macron, the Hero company, have unveiled the new ‘Euro Kit’ that Neal Hatley’s side will wear in their cup matches. Bath Rugby will make their Heineken Champions Cup debut on Saturday 11 December when they face hosts Leinster Rugby at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

For the new ‘Euro Kit’, Macron and Bath Rugby have decided to create a jersey with a casual-fashion design, making it a garment that fans can wear at any time of day. For this reason, an elegant anthracite grey with a marl effect has been chosen, featuring black, white and blue detailing along the sleeves. There are two stripes on the sides in a darker shade of grey, the same colour used for the edges of the crew neck. The back of the neck is personalised with Bath Rugby’s colours and logo.

On the right-hand side of the chest, in white, is the Macron Hero, the Italian brand’s logo; on the left-hand side, over the heart, is the club’s crest.

All garments feature a Body fit, and the fabrics used are Armevo and Bodytex, which, as well as being lightweight and breathable, ensure maximum durability and comfort on the pitch.
