European Champions Cup Nights & Canterbury VapoDri Tech

This 2016 leinster rugby european jersey embodies Canterbury’s premium technical rugby tailoring. Built on a rich navy blue main torso, the shirt features a striking chest design showcasing subtle, sublimated metallic gold chevrons and paneling that extend down the front, paired with Canterbury’s signature reinforced crossover loop collar.

The chest proudly displays a 3D rubberized Leinster harp crest over the heart, topped by three gold European stars representing the province’s historic Heineken Cup titles in 2009, 2011, and 2012. Opposite sits the embroidered white Canterbury CCC logo, while principal sponsor Bank of Ireland is printed bold across the central torso. During the 2016/17 European campaign, Leinster delivered unforgettable European nights at the RDS and Aviva Stadium—sweeping past Castres, Montpellier, and Northampton Saints in the pool stage before dismantling Wasps in a thrilling quarter-final. This exact jersey was brought to life on the European stage by a breathtaking blend of iconic veterans and breakout superstars, including Johnny Sexton, Garry Ringrose, Tadhg Furlong, Joey Carbery, Robbie Henshaw, Isa Nacewa, Jamie Heaslip, Seán O’Brien, Devin Toner, and Cian Healy. Crafted from lightweight, quick-drying VapoDri moisture-wicking fabric engineered for professional contact sport, original 2016/17 European releases in well-preserved condition remain highly sought-after acquisitions for Leinster faithful and 32-county rugby kit collectors.
