Own a piece of history with the DHL Stormers limited edition heritage jersey

The DHL Stormers will wear a special heritage jersey for their clash with the British and Irish Lions and you can own your own replica, although stocks are limited.

The DHL Stormers will face the British and Irish Lions for the first time at Cape Town Stadium next week, but there is a long history between the British side and teams from the Western Cape, which goes back 130 years.

That rich history is reflected by the incorporation of the iconic DHL Western Province hoops in the limited edition DHL Stormers heritage replica jersey, which is available at stormersshop.co.za and blksport.co.za now.

The first time a team from the British Isles toured South Africa was in 1891 and their second match was against Western Province, with the tourists winning 6-0.

There have since been many epic encounters between the British and Irish Lions and local teams in Cape Town, with the most recent being a tense 26-23 win for the visitors at DHL Newlands in 2009.

The limited edition jersey will be worn by the DHL Stormers next week only and you can own your own replica of this unique piece of history by shopping now at stormersshop.co.za or blksport.co.za today before they are sold out.
