Hot male model Jai Tsim| is living proof he’s too sexy for his shirt as he hit the streets to test Wales’s new super skin tight rugby strip.
The tall, dark and handsome 19-year-old Gavin Henson lookalike had passers-by taking a double take after we squeezed him into the team’s latest shirt.
And Jai, a model with Cardiff-based agency Vibe|, was more than happy to get his kit on to prove to the ladies of Cardiff that the new strip is certainly one for people of all different shapes and sizes.
The new shirts, priced between £35 and £70, hit the shops on Thursday.
And judging by the response to Jai’s body hugging piece of kit, the shirts are proving a hit.
Kayleigh Fyfe, 20, of Butetown, Cardiff, said: “It’s very tight, but that’s OK, just as long as the rugby players can move.
“But it shouldn’t be about the fashion, it should be about the sport. Wales is all about the rugby!
“My boyfriend is very rugby oriented but he wouldn’t wear it as it’s too tight for him.”
Sisters Sian Dunn, 30, and Kate Eyes, can’t get enough of the shirts.
Bride-to-be Sian said: “I think it’s nice, but you have got to have the body for it. It wouldn’t look the same over a beer belly. But my fiance would look good in it. He’s well toned.”
