For a long time now, we've been making very authentic, super heavyweight rugby shirts inspired by the jerseys worn on the rugby pitch 50-100 years ago. But the rugby shirt has a wide variety of references, and the playing fields of England and Europe are just one. We're drawing on a very different reference for this new rugby release: the rugby shirts of 1980s catalogue culture; the rugby shirts worn by outdoorsmen, weekend warriors, dads of all shapes and sizes in the late 20th century. These are slightly lighter weight and slightly baggier than our "authentic" rugby shirts, and have a twill collar instead of a knit collar. Shop dad rugbies now.
