France is a country known for it’s Gallic flair and charm.
This time last year they introduced a red kit for the Six Nations clash with Scotland that had more than a hint of Spain at the Euros about it.
We liked it, and the French fans it seemed did too.
But adidas have gone one better this term with a wonderful jersey that is sure to make even the most horrible cauliflower ear look only gorgeous.
Instead of just a single colour, we’re pleased to say the kit maker has gone for a mix of the national flag, with red white and blue coming together to form a very very tasty kit.

Ah least it means that when France fans roar out Allez Les Blues, they will be partially right this season.
If it was the last thing you see before someone puts your lights out going for the whitewash, well you could hardly complain could you.
