Customers are overwhelmingly stoked with these, giving them a 4.9 star average rating on the website, with comments such as “ Easy to dress up a bit with a shirt if going out,” “Beautiful!” and “Ok”. He doesn’t have much to say about them, so let me advise you that they’re 98% organic cotton, and they have a teeny tiny coin pocket on the right hand side (kind of mean to lefties). They cost $99.99, and come in four boring colours – McAnulty opted for “Taupe,” which seems like a fancy word for tan. Kingly organic chino shorts are a Barkers bestseller. If you think every guy you’ve ever seen in public was wearing these shorts you just might be right. You can also linger around the pyjama section of the op-shop touching all the tops until one feels not like the other ones, decide its merino, and ignore the holes in it. For us sweatsters, there’s the Icebreaker Merino 200, which for $119.99 gives you such features as odour-resistance, no-itch-comfort, and body temperature regulation – gorgeous. If your bougie preference is a natural fibre, fair enough – I too get smelly in synthetics. At the moment, Postie is only stocking striped thermals of the adult crew neck variety, but Kmart has a great black alternative made from polyester and elastane for only $16. We’re pretty sure this is right because there aren’t that many other shops in Masterton, so the chance of confusion is low. “I’m pretty sure I got the black polyprop from Postie Plus in Masterton,” says McAnulty. This World Cup, the home jersey has shiny black fern illustrations, and the world cup logo with the date – unlike McAnulty’s it will forever show its age. Its synthetic ClimaCool fabric has held up well, and so has McAnulty’s weight watching, “ Nice to know I haven’t expanded much”. This particular jersey caused outcry when it was found that Adidas was selling it for almost double the price in New Zealand ($220) compared to the US and the UK. The jersey is 11 years old, and there’s one in the New Zealand Fashion Museum collection, and one on TradeMe (size M) with a $70 starting price. It was a good move, as sponsors come and go but true fans and Adidas partnerships are forever. “ I liked the idea of having one without sponsorship on it,” he says. The day after the All Blacks announced they would be adding a sponsor (AIG) to the jerseys, he went out and bought this one. “ I’ve had it for quite a while,” says McAnulty. Still, his fit was spotted by the finest journalists, who alerted me to its existence. McAnulty sat alongside Chris Hipkins and Grant Robertson to watch the big game, but was framed outside of photos taken for Labour’s social media channels. The Labour MP for Wairarapa, who is on the campaign trail for a second term, had ten bucks on Ardie Savea to score a try – a bet which he unfortunately lost. Last Saturday, as the All Blacks were running and scrummaging their way around the finest Parisian soil in the opening game of the Rugby World Cup, Kieran McAnulty was at the Upper Hutt Cosmopolitan Club in his finest Kiwi Classic fit. Next in our campaign style series, Kieran McAnulty shows us how to pull off the Kiwi Classic look, even without a big red ute.
