History of the Rugby Shirt

The origins of the rugby shirt can be traced back to the early 1800’s when the game of rugby was first invented. They needed a way to tell the teams apart from one another and so the rugby kit was born. The original shirts were regularly torn during the game so a tougher more robust garment was required. The result was a rugby shirt made from thick, heavy cotton with a stiff collar and rubber buttons which made it harder to tear and pull respectively during the game.
