Wales' new kit in pictures

Stephen Jones, Gareth Thomas, Alun Wyn Jones, Jonathan Thomas and James Hook model the new kit

Wales' new World Cup kit is a tight-fitting 'second skin' designed to be harder to grab by opponents

Jonathan Thomas and James Hook

The kit comes in two fits - a skin-tight fit and looser fit to enable front five forwards to bind and lift

Wales fly-half Stephen Jones

Wales will wear the new kit for the first time in their opening World Cup game against Canada in Nantes on 9 September

Gareth Thomas, Alun Wyn Jones and Stephen Jones test the new kit

The kit is designed to neutralise "tackling points", reduce risk of muscle injury and to support the body in contact

Wales coach Gareth Jenkins says the kit "should give us the extra edge we require on the international stage"
