General 2026 NZ Warriors Jerseys and Merchandise

I don't understand why designers are using different shades of team colours these days.

Usually pro sports teams have a clear set of Pantone colours that they stick to.

Why do we have washed out green and baby blue this season?

Look at this example from the Warriors site, neither of the two pieces of fan gear match the playing uniforms in the middle.

The magic round tee will have specific colours that are available for the 'glow in the dark' print. The dark blue would have clashed.

Lord knows why they didn't stick to the usual blue, green and red for the varsity jacket. I think it would have looked quite good.

I did see that another brand has the right colors. Could be something to do with that.

Maybe the Dynasty designers introduced these off-colour schemes to try and differentiate this year's stuff from previous seasons, but it's not a very on-brand thing to do.

The new varsity jacket follows the washed out colours from a few other items:

There are also some very dark items this season, which look quite smart but they're not using the actual team colours either.

EG: the beanie at the end looks exactly like last season but is using a different shade of blue:

Other brands on the Warriors site use the right colours, but sometimes also include black.

I'm with ya, mate.

I like the '95 colourset, was never into the black/silver/white/red gear.

Except for the 2011 Home and Eden Park jersey.
 
I've been finding all the non jersey clothing have been arse for the last several years. Bad colours, bad designs.

Last one I bought was from Kearney era....God help me.
