PUMA the official technical and apparel partner of the Vodacom Bulls has unveiled 3 new Super Rugby kits, inspired by the stars.
Nicknamed the Stellar Kit, this season sees the introduction of a signature Black kit – brought to life with an orange and red ombrè effect across the front of the jersey, a traditional Blue kit and a re-appearance of the popular Pink kit. The Vodacom Bulls will take to the field in the specially designed pink kit for one of their home games to show their support of CANSA (Cancer Association of South Africa) and those persevering in the fight against cancer.
PUMA South Africa’s Marketing Director, Brett Bellinger says there is something for everyone in the new kits which feature a Bull imprinted across the front with reflective material embellishments.
“The new black kit takes inspiration from the star-filled night sky, which is fitting for the Bulls – the stars in their own right, and makes for a great signature kit. The blue kit is for the traditional Bulls supporter and the return of the hugely successful pink kit is available in a ladies cut only – with exception of the Team who will wear the kit in support of CANSA,” Bellinger says.
Barend van Graan, CEO of the Blue Bulls Company, says: “Our partners at PUMA have once again exceeded our expectations in producing yet another amazing series of kits for our Vodacom Super Rugby season. We are truly privileged to be associated with a brand that works tirelessly to make the Vodacom Bulls a real trendsetter in world rugby. The players, our stars, are extremely excited to don the new kit, and I believe our fans will be just as excited.”
The new Super Rugby shirt will be available at PUMA stores as well as select retailers nationwide from 4 December 2015 with a recommended retail price of R 749.00.

Like the new kit a lot, especially the away one. Please Santa have been a very good boy this year
Good on the Bulls and Puma for the pink kit that will be used in one game in support of CANSA. The choice of 3 jerseys is good for the supporters too, it should widen the scope of the market.
Wonder if the away one with predominantly red and black colours was designed to help the new guys from the Kings feel more at home
I quite like the kits

The blue one’s not bad.
but seriously, “inspired by the stars”? WTF is up with that bullshit?
“The new black kit takes inspiration from the star-filled night sky,…”
Doesn’t matter where they get their inspiration from, they’ll still be bottom dwellers…
@ Nama:
Hi Nama go and sit in on the naughty step you bad boy

@ Bullscot:
But it’s still true. Did you see the preliminary Bulls squad? Lots of Boks but all of them a bunch of shouldnothavebeens. How does a back line like this inspire any confidence:
15. Galant
14. JJ Engelbrecht
13. J. Kriel
12. Serfontein
11. Basson
10. Pollard
9. Page
No other SA team can boast that many Boks in the back line, I believe… 6 out of the 7.
The one jersey looks like they tried to rip off the Chief’s colors.

You mean…”a lot of ex Boks?”
If Toetie takes over then they will be known as ex Boks 😉
De Jongh in for Kriel, Coleman in for Pollard 😀
The Bulls pack:
1. Nyakane
2. Strauss (c)
3. Kruger
4. Hattingh
5. Orie
6. Stegman
7. Lappies
8. Arno Botha
Nog ‘n klomp “ervare” Bokke…5 uit die 8 uit as ek reg is.
Jule is veronderstel om goed te doen met al die Bokke, maar julle sal nie. Swaar tye le voor vir ‘n Bul ondersteuner volgende jaar.
@ MacroPolo:
Misluke plek daai waar jy woon 😆
Heel dag reen gehad daar vandag.

I thought the exact same thing; shame, it’s the closest they’ll get to the cherished trophy for the next few years.
@ nortie:
Haha… then the Bulls fans can bitch and moan for the immediate future about selections by the coach.
But really, if you look at those names you ask yourself, how did som of them becaome Bok players. Then you remember…ahhh…HM was the coach.
@ BrumbiesBoy:
“…it’s the closest they’ll get to the cherished trophy for the next few years.”
It nearly worked for Stormers in 1999 with our “Men in black” campaign. Maybe they’re onto something.
@ Nama:
12: Verkeerd, Burger in Pollard se plek. 🙂
So maand terug het ek gedink volgende jaar is daar 3 redes waarom die Stormes uiteindelik na 20 jaar die super beker kon wen:
1. Eddie Indiana Jones
2. Vaste vyf
3. Burger op losskakel
Nommer 1 het sy gat gesien, Stormers het darem nog ‘n rekord agter hul naam. Binne een week ‘n afrigter gekry en weer verloor.
Nommer 2 kan net werk as Eben en PSDT die hele seisoen kan hou.
Nommer 3 is die Stormers se grootste troefkaart.
Kan werklik nie glo hul wil vir AC aanstel as bokafrigter nie. Is dit nie die afrigter wat nooit sukses kon behaal op supervlak nie ? Is dit nie die afrigter wat jaar na jaar sy span afgerig het om amper niks driee te druk nie. Die ander spanne het gewoonlik meer bonuspunte gekry as wat die Stormers onder AC driee gedruk het ?
Almal is mos kwaad vir HM se verdediging rugby, AC is nog meer daarop ingestel ?
Nee kyk, ek is ook vir verandering, HM moet vervang word, maar deur iemand beter.
Gee vir Ackers ‘n kans !
With their many different colours for next year and their propensity to play inconsistent rugby, good the one week and very poor the next, the Bulls may just as well change their name to The Chameleons.
Suits the better.
@ Ben-die-Bul:
“Gee vir Ackers ‘n kans !”
Op grond waarvan?
Een CC oorwinning… AC het TWEE.
Vertoning in SR…AC se rekord is beter.
Spelpatroon… AC was besig om dit te verander by WP/Stormers sedert verlede jaar.
Daarmee se ek geensins dat AC aangestel moet word nie. Ek stem net nie saam met die beheptheid met Ackers nie. As AC “niks” bereik het deur twee CC’s te wen nie, dan beteken dit sekerlik dat Ackers ook nog niks bereik het as afrigter nie.
Nee man, as daar ‘n keuse moet wees tussen AC, Ackers en HM, dan wen AC loshande.
Die Bulle kan hul “anthem” verander van, “Die Blou Bul vreet nie van die vloer af nie”, na Dolly Parton se “Team of many colours”, gesing deur Wynand Olivier met agtergrond stemme verskaf deur Werner Kruger en Bakkies Botha. Miskien kan Patricia Lewis ook gevra word om ‘n bydrae te lewer (en haar extensions rond te swaai.).

My but you are such an a cheery encouraging fellow
At least the Bulls will be visible next years unlike when they played in the camo kit… or will they with this chameleon thing going on?
21: Ackers het ‘n span met geen of min Bokke opgebou wat nou baie goeie rugby speel.
Wat het AC gedoen om nou bo HM gekies te word, net 2 CB’s gewen?
HM het 3 superbekers (2 daarvan deur sy kloon), en 4 CB.
Soos ek gesê het, ek gaan definitief nie omgee as daar ‘n nuwe bokafrigter is nie, maar ek sien gee goeie rugby redes waarom AC nou ‘n beter aanstelling is as HM nie, behalwe …….
POLITIEK ?

Don’t you worry we will dazzle our opponents with the stars on our tops

Hi nortie, the Chiefs have bulls on their tops? Good taste if they do
When the Lions lost 4 out of 5 games at the start of the SR season, everybody said that Ackers is out of his depth as a coach at SR level and that he needed Mitchell to hold his hand.
Less than a year later some people see him as the top candidate from SA to replace HM. How quickly we forget?
@ Ben-die-Bul:
Ek stem nie saam nie. As dit SARU se beleid is dat daar slegs Suid Afrikaners aangestel moet word, dan is AC die beste man, van die huidige afrigters, om HM op te volg.
Politiek het niks daarmee te doen nie.
