Official Canterbury British & Irish Lions Vaposhield rugby shirt from the 2017 tour to New Zealand

This is Canterbury's lightweight and flexible 'Vaposhield' version of the jersey, designed to be played in.

The condition of this original rugby jersey is 9/10 - Superb (see photos).

On 24 June, the Lions, captained by Peter O'Mahony, faced New Zealand in Eden Park in the first Test and were beaten 30–15. This was followed by the final midweek game of the tour, a draw against the Hurricanes. For the second Test, Gatland recalled Warburton to his starting team, restoring his captaincy.

In Wellington Regional Stadium, the Lions beat New Zealand 24–21 to tie the series going into the final game, ending the side's 47-game winning run at home. In the final test at Eden Park the following week, the teams played out a draw, ending the Test match series in a tie for the first time in the history of competition between the sides.
