Timeless and versatile, the Rugby shirt is a failsafe addition to every wardrobe. It's the little details that make ours so iconic — we've thought of them all. Our new season styles offer a fresh take on the classic. Take our Harlequin rugby shirt, for example. We've designed it in a pink and navy quarter colour block for a modern twist — perfect for dialling up your varsity style. Our women's collection also features short-sleeved rugby shirts in bright colours, nodding to our heritage with a statement '93 patch on the reverse. The perfect teammate to jeans and trainers, always.
Our men's rugby shirts range proves they belong in every off-duty wardrobe. Styles like the Callington Rugby feature modern twists, such as herringbone placket detailing and an embroidered patch on the reverse that reflects our coastal roots. We also have styles with our signature stripes in bright colours for a fresh, new season update. These supersoft classics are perfect with chinos, jeans, or shorts.
