Question

Where can I get one of the old "lettered" Leicester shirts - "B" preferably?

Answer 1

I would be very surprised if you find the old school Leicester shirt in their official store. Times have changed (not for always for good). I can tell you for sure that you can find old Leicester shirts on ebay.co.uk. I bought one myself a few years back. Not a big chance you will find one with a letter, I think only players got them, but with ebay you never know...

My suggestion: buy old striped Leicester shirt on ebay (watch out for the size, of course) and then saw a letter B on a white square on the back (go to the local rugby store or manufacturer for letter, or made it yourself - be creative). You will definitely end up with a uniqe shirt. And also show this youngsters what a proper rugby jersey looks like.

Answer 2

Either keep an eye on EBay or try one of the supporter's web sites - either the Tigers Official or the main independent supporter's site www.theleicestertigers.com on Sport Network.

The last shirts to be produced (that I know of, because I bought one! And no, I am not willing to sell it.) with the 'B' on the back were for Dorian West's Testimonial year - this is something else you could use to search for.

Answer 3

The leicester tigers website sells both pro-fit and cotton ones. Also the tigers store at the stadium sells them for 25 pounds.
