Macron and World Rugby unveil the new Emirates Match Official kits for the Guinness Six Nations
The Macron Hero is becoming increasingly protagonist on the fields of the Guinness Six Nations. This year, in light of the recent partnership agreement between Macron and World Rugby, the technical clothing of the Emirates Match Officials is signed by the Italian company, more and more a leading international brand in the world of rugby. On the eve of the 2022 edition, Macron and World Rugby have unveiled the new kits that the match officials will wear during the Guinness Six Nations matches.
The 2022-2023 Emirates Officials uniforms feature a polo neck shirt. There are four colours: white, navy blue, orange and fluoro green. A tone-on-tone graphic - in sublimation print - creates a geometric inlay effect on the front. On the right of the chest is the Macron Hero, and on the left is the World Rugby Referee logo. This logo is also present at the centre of the shoulder sleeves, where the internal pocket with GPS is inserted.
The white jersey has a navy blue collar, the same colour used for the shorts and socks. The collar is white in the navy blue version, while the shorts and socks remain navy blue. For the orange competition kit, the collar, shorts and socks conform with the navy blue of the first two kits; whereas, in the fluoro green uniform, the collar, shorts and socks are black. All the jerseys have a Slim Fit, and the fabric used is Fightex.
The new line of apparel, characterized by the quality and technicality that distinguishes Macron garments, is made with innovative materials. Comfort and practicality combined with the elegance of an exclusive design, crafted with great attention to detail, facilitate the highest standard of performance by the Emirates Officials who play such a crucial yet delicate role on the pitch.
The new World Rugby Six Nations Match Officials Kit will debut at the opening match of the Guinness Six Nations at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, which will see Ireland face Wales.
