Lockie, this thread is for you.

The Highlanders have placed the following on their Facebook page:

Hey guys.
Had a lot of questions to say the least about 'Where's the Highlanders gear!?'
Well the spiffing Highlanders Polos are now in-store at our preferred supplier Champions of the World and everything else will be available at the beginning of next week.
Thank you and have a good afternoon.

For more info (I know Lockie doesn't have a FB account), I have C&P the comments from this post below as they are at the moment and will add more if required and by request:

Adam Walker When will the green jersey hit the stores??

THE HIGHLANDERS That is down to the individual supplier and what they ordered.
People tend to forget that we the Highlanders do not sell the gear ourselves.

Richard Harradine Yes, i am very keen to get one ov them green jerseys too

Adam Walker I'm well aware that it's up to the suppliers. But I've been poking around for one of the green wonders for a few weeks and haven't seen any online or in stories... and was just wondering if there had been a delay.

THE HIGHLANDERS Every NZ franchise is going through a 2 year cycle for their gear,
We sold out of kit in stores NZ wide while the other teams had their gear continue to sell in stores.
After the Highlanders feel good season last year combined with the green jersey decision, all of our gear was snapped up including the small amount of green jerseys that was released to the end of last season.
Its unfortunate that we have not been able to get the gear back in stores from ADIDAS sooner but it is great to be in hot demand.

Ryan Stag O'Connor Can we bye the green machine kit?

THE HIGHLANDERS That is down to your local supplier Ryan Stag O'Connor and what they ordered.

David McClintock Will shorts be available

William Leo Rice Sucks I live in Wellington but I'm sure I can find sme Highlanders stuff thou?

Jordan Salvatore Pasco So is the home jersey is that same as last years but the away jersey is changing to the away one?

More comments that are probably relevant:

THE HIGHLANDERS Yes William Leo Rice Highlanders gear will be in stores NZ wide.
Jordan Salvatore Pasco the home jersey will remain the same as last year.
The green jersey will only be worn when Blue and Gold clash with another teams colours at away games.

Ryan Stag O'Connor So no maroon jersey???

Daniel Webster damn i was real keen on a maroon, there were heaps around last year but i slept on it ;/ oh well green it is :)
