Emerald, Sri Lanka’s premier brand of men’s shirts, launched the Kumar and Mahela 2015 Choice collection in honor of the nation’s cricketing legends, Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardena.

Working closely with Emerald’s head of design, Roberto Inglesi, Kumar and Mahela handpicked design and style elements for this limited edition range.


Inspired by their dynamically charismatic persona, each shirt carries Kumar or Mahela’s signature on the inside yoke, making them a great piece of memorabilia for Sri Lankan cricket fans.

“Emerald has always been known for the immaculate style and unparalleled comfort that our shirts offer.


We are honored to be associated with the nation’s cricketing icons, Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardena.


The Kumar and Mahela 2015 Choice collection draws inspiration from their passion for excellence, both on and off the field.


With Kumar and Mahela being involved in the design and manufacturing of this collection, each shirt is a reflection of their personality and character” said Kisani Dahanayake, Head of Marketing at Emerald International.

The Emerald team has gone all out with this exclusive and original collection that’s dedicated to the country’s most loved sports stars.


Made with premium Japanese fabric, the shirts come in a wide range of deigns including stripes, checks, solids and dobby weaves.


The collection is currently available at Emerald Shirt stores in Colpetty, Bambalapitiya, Kohuwala, and Navam Mawatha.


With the ongoing Cricket World Cup being the last one that Kumar and Mahela will be playing together, Emerald invites Sri Lankan cricket fans to join them in honoring the two legendary cricketing gentlemen.

Founded in 1956, Sri Lanka’s #1 brand in men’s shirts, Emerald firmly believes that the Sri Lankan male deserves nothing but the best and focuses on quality, reliability, and innovation to create shirts that meet its own exacting standards.
