The French astronaut, a big fan of rugby and more specifically “red and black” as well as the Blues of the XV of France, says more about the next tunic of European and France champions.
He did it. During the 2020-2021 season, the Stade Toulouse stadium rugby players had once again touched the stars. A victory in champions cup, the fifth, which the club had not tasted since 2010. On their shoulders: a singular jersey, imagined in collaboration with Thomas Pesquet.

“It was a jersey inspired by the idea of space, exploration, with an extravagular output side, as in the space” rewinds the famous astronaut, rugby fan and the Toulousain stadium, with our colleagues from Midi Olympic. “”We had made a design with four stars, and after their victory, we had to add a fifth. It was a funny little touch, a nod to the quest for the stars. At the time, the design was also inspired by a kind of spacesuit, a parallel with the armor of Iron Man, even if, of course, we could not officially say it, since it is a registered trademark of Marvel. I really had fun doing this. “

And now, very soon, a new jersey with the touch of Thomas Pesquet will be offered to supporters. From this month according to Thomas Pesquet. “The new jersey that arrives in April will also be very pretty. I will not say too much so as not to spoil, but it will be in a cosmic, nebula, with an even more futuristic design.”
And Thomas Pesque concludes: “And then, if it brings them luck, so much the better! If I ever become a lifeline, I will stop collaborating in the creation of jerseys, but for the moment, it rolls.”
