All things considered, it’s a good time to be a Saracens fan. Double winners last season, a squad packed full of quality players ahead of their campaign, and the sun came out for the lunch of their new jerseys.
The launch was took the form of an orchestrated marketing campaign from Saracens and kit supplier BLK, with a video featuring Brad Barritt, the newly installed captain, released to coincide with today’s event.

Then came the customary photo shoot, featuring Barritt alongside members of both the men’s and ladies teams. It was then when we got a good look at each of Saracens’ new jerseys.

The walk down the runway was followed by a question and answer session, along with some fan interaction. However just before we began thinking Saracens had gone soft, their twitter account reminded us they are the reigning European and Premiership champions.
