The EleVen line first launched in 2007 as an exclusive collection for Steve & Barry’s and in 2010, EleVen partnered with Ralph Lauren on a capsule collection that sold online and at the US Open.  It was forced off shelves after retailer Steve & Barry's went bankrupt.

All Blacks - Rugby World Cup 2011 Champions

Last month the New Zealand men's national rugby union team, known as the All Blacks won the Rugby World Cup beating France 8-7 in a nail-biting finish to the Rugby World Cup final in Auckland on October 23rd 2011 to win the William Webb Ellis trophy for the second time.

The All Blacks, who also won the inaugural 1987 tournament, beating the French on home soil in that final too, also at Eden Park, were made to work hard by a 'Les Bleus' team which many pundits considered as the worst side to have ever made a World Cup final.

Veteran prop Tony Woodcock scored the All Blacks' sole try, with replacement fly-half Stephen Donald hitting a second-half penalty as first-choice kicker Piri Weepu let eight points go begging.

"It's hard to describe," said All Blacks Captain Richie McCaw. I'm absolutely shagged (worn out). The courage, what the guys put in out there, we dug deeper than we ever have before, it's hard to let it really sink in.  The people around New Zealand have given this team so much this past six weeks, it's great to repay them."
"No-one can take this away from this group, they are tough men and I think the whole country should be proud of every single one of them." captain Richie McCaw said.
