Macron Hero is playing an increasingly prominent role on the pitches of the Guinness Six Nations. This year, following the recent partnership agreement between Macron and World Rugby, the technical kit worn by the Emirates Match Officials is provided by the Italian company, which is increasingly establishing itself as a leading international brand in the world of rugby. On the eve of the 2022 tournament, Macron and World Rugby have unveiled the new kits that match officials will wear during the Guinness Six Nations matches.

The 2022–2023 kits for Emirates Match Officials feature a polo-neck shirt. There are four colourways: white, navy blue, orange and fluorescent green. On the front, a tone-on-tone graphic – produced using sublimation printing – creates a geometric inlay effect. On the chest, the Macron Hero logo is on the right and the World Rugby Referee logo on the left. This logo also appears in the centre of the shoulders, where the internal pocket for the GPS is located.

The white shirt has a navy blue collar, the same colour used for the shorts and socks; in the navy blue version, the collar is white, whilst the shorts and socks are navy blue; for the orange match kit, the collar, shorts and socks remain navy blue; finally, in the fluorescent green kit, the collar, shorts and socks are black. All the shirts have a slim fit and are made from Fightex fabric.

The new clothing range, characterised by the quality and technical excellence that set Macron garments apart, is made from innovative materials. Comfort and practicality are combined with the elegance of an exclusive design, with meticulous attention to detail, to offer the best on-field performance to Emirates Match Officials as they carry out a role that is as important as it is delicate.

The new kits from the World Rugby 6 Nations Match Officials Kit range will make their debut in the opening match of the new Guinness Six Nations tournament, scheduled to take place at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin between Ireland and Wales.
