But do not even think about complaining — this one is for the kids.
The Highlanders will wear a mostly green, Hulk-inspired jersey when they play the Hurricanes at Forsyth Barr Stadium on March 14.
It will be part of Super Rugby Pacific’s ‘‘kids round’’, and follows a two-year deal the New Zealand clubs have made with apparel partner Classic Sportswear.
Each club chose a Marvel superhero with which to be aligned, and supporters will be able to buy the unique gear.
The Chiefs went with Black Panther, the Blues with Spider-Man, the Crusaders with Iron Man, and the Hurricanes with Captain America.
Hulk v Captain America in Dunedin? No contest, surely.
Mention green jerseys to some Highlanders fans and their faces turn . . . well, green.
The Highlanders created quite the stir when they unveiled a garish fluoro-green kit — cruelly nicknamed the ‘‘Highlighter’’ — in their last game at Carisbrook in 2011.
