Ellis Rugby British & Irish Rugby Classic Sweatshirt Zipper Navy

Description

The British & Irish Rugby Sweatshirt Vintage Rugby Zipper Navy is inspired by the history of the British Isles Rugby Lions tours. It features a crest inspired by the 1924 team.

The inaugural official tour of South Africa was in 1891 and was organised by Joe Richards, an old boy of Leys School in Cambridge. He assembled twenty one players under the Captaincy of London Scottish player, Bill Maclagan. The squad mainly included players from both Oxford and Cambridge. Only nine of the twenty one had played international rugby and of these only five had played in the 1891 Four Nations Championship. These were William Bromet and William Mitchell for England. The Scotland Triple Crown winners were represented by Rob MacMillan, Paul Claus and William Wotherspoon.

      frequently asked questions

      How long does delivery take?

      Well, we’re not Amazon Prime, but we’re pretty quick! Standard UK delivery is typically 2-3 working days, depending on how fast the postie feels that day. But if you need it faster, we've got express options to get your rugby fix sorted in 1-2 working days. If you live on a faraway island or in a hobbit hole, give us a day or two extra.

      Can I track my order?

      Of course you can! Once we’ve packed your gear and it’s out the door, you’ll get a tracking number faster than a winger chasing a loose ball, in your Order Shipped email. Just click the link, and you'll know exactly when to camp by the letterbox

      Do you offer discounts or promo codes?

      Who doesn’t love a cheeky discount? Keep your eyes peeled for promotions – we drop them faster than a prop hitting the ruck. Sign up to our newsletter, and when we have one available, you’ll be the first to know. But no, we’re not giving you a discount code just because you asked nicely.

      Do you ship internationally?

      You bet! We’re happy to send our gear to your corner of the world. Whether you’re in Australia, France, or somewhere remote like Timbuktu, we’ll get it there. Just give us a little more time for the long haul – we can’t walk on water...yet
