All the 2023 Rugby World Cup jerseys

Jul 29, 2023

All the teams have unveiled their 2023 Rugby World Cup jerseys.

Ahead of the 2023 Rugby World Cup, we take a look at all the jerseys and kits for the tournament.

A reminder that sponsors cannot feature on the front of shirts, with countries only permitted to have one crest/Coat of Arms on the front of the jerseys.

The Rugby World Cup 2023 logo will appear on the right-hand side of all jerseys, with the country’s crest on the left and the kit designer in the middle.

Teams that have won the Rugby World Cup will have a symbol of the William Webb Ellis Cup on the sleeve, along with the years they won it. Any additional crests or symbols to represent the team will be on the opposite sleeve.

Let us know which ones are your favourites.

The All Blacks 2023 kit hasn’t been too well received, with the new silver fern design covering the jersey proving to be more of a miss than a hit. While most have bayed for the return of collars to rugby jerseys, adidas’ attempt to bring them back has made this look more like a golf or cricket shirt than a rugby one. The All Blacks will don an all-white jersey during the World Cup, too, potentially in the opener against France.

And here it is, the new All Blacks RWC2023 jersey – it’s all black, obviously, but a proper collar and a very interesting take on the silver fern sublimated into the design certainly makes this a bit of a polariser… pic.twitter.com/O2cPVAGa3b

The hosts’ new jersey supplied by Le Coq Sportif is a slightly different colour than the ones France donned during the Autumn Nations Series last year and the 2023 Six Nations. The change in the blue shade is attributed to reflect the France flag, with the players also set to wear red socks and white shorts. They, too, have a white alternative kit with a blue outline.

Macron have produced a light blue jersey for the Azzurri with a two-button polo shirt collar, a slim white line, and white sleeve cuffs.

The jersey also features what Macron describe as a ‘stylised design of the laurel wreath present in the FIR crest, produced in a tone-on-tone dye-sub print.’

The white and blue alternate kit follows the same design with the side set to don white shorts with the home kit and blue with the alternate.

Los Teros’ World Cup kit has plenty of fanfare with the sun, which appears on their flag, featuring prominently on the home and alternate strip. They are set to don their new sun-inspired yellow jersey in three of their four pool matches against France, Italy and Namibia. The only time we are likely to see Uruguay in their traditional blue is against New Zealand.

Nike have revealed the Springboks’ Rugby World Cup jersey (pictured above) following the same design as those released for the Rugby Championship.

Nike have taken over as kit supplier of South Africa from ASICS, and their maiden jersey has gone down well with the public.

The classic ‘green and gold’ jersey has been reimagined to include a traditional collar with the underside of the collar giving a nod to the South African flag.

Ireland and Canterbury have officially released the kit after the sneak peek of the jersey was widely slammed. The reaction has been mostly the same for the official release, with fans criticising both the green and white jerseys. The kit has been made from 100% recycled polyester, with Canterbury stating that it is ‘the most technologically advanced jersey’ the supplier has ever produced.

It also features VaopDri+ adaptive and quick-drying technology, a bonded, elastic and flatlocked collar for strength, laser-cut holes for breathability, silicone logos and curved form for comfort.

“The jersey is launched alongside Canterbury’s ‘We Go Together’ campaign, which calls on Irish fans around the world to unite in support of the Ireland team during the tournament,” an Irish Rugby statement read.

Scotland’s new home shirt for the 2023 Rugby World Cup is navy blue with a white-trimmed neck and sleeves. It also features two thin stripes on the sleeve, one of which is in Scottish Rugby’s own tartan green.

There is a distinct tartan design down the sides of the jersey, which has identified Scottish Rugby since 1991 alongside Scottish navy blue with green and purple shades of the thistle, Scotland’s national flower.

The tartan also features on the end of the sleeves of the alternate white jersey.

The Tongan Rugby Union and kit sponsors ForceXV have released their jerseys for the Rugby World Cup. The ‘Ikale Tahi return to their traditional red and white colours with the jersey featuring the ‘kupesi tokelaufeletoa’ within the fabric. The jersey also pays tribute to Tonga’s ‘angafakatonga’ (the Tongan way), with ngatu motif designs and its art of tapa-making illustrated. Their alternate jersey has not yet been released but it is set to be primarily white.

Romania will don a yellow home jersey and a white alternate at the Rugby World Cup. The jerseys, supplied by Macron, feature a wide blue border on the right sleeve, while the one on the left is red. Both feature sublimation-printed graphics inspired by typical geometric designs found on traditional Romanian fabrics and clothing.

The Macron-designed Wales Rugby World Cup kit has impressed fans with a home red jersey featuring a tidy white collar. The alternate jersey is black and yellow, with both kits featuring Saint David’s flag colours. The words of the national anthem are also printed on the jersey.

The Wallabies have a permanent First Nations design component on their primary strip for the first time for a World Cup. There is also an upgrade to the Coat of Arms, while the 2023 ASICS Wallabies Alternate Jersey is a sleek white jersey.

Fiji have officially released their Rugby World Cup jerseys after an earlier leak. Nike have supplied and designed the kit for the Pacific Islanders with a classic white and black home jersey and a red and black alternate. In a statement revealing the jersey, the design was described as an embodiment of “the spirit and heritage of Fiji’s revered rugby legacy”.

The Fijian rugby jerseys are usually popular and well-received, and this one is no different.

Georgia were the last team to release their jersey ahead of the Rugby World Cup.

The Lelos are one of seven countries supplied by Macron, and their jerseys feature a vine shoot, a symbol and expression of national identity of a country that is historically considered among the oldest wine producers.

The home shirt is red with a V-neck with purple borders, a chromatic feature also present on the cuffs of the sleeves. The away version, which exactly matches the design of the first jersey, is completely white with a purple V-neck and red and purple striped sleeve edging.

Portugal make their first Rugby World Cup appearance since 2007 and are doing so in style. Os Lobos’ jersey has symbols of their flag with their red home kit featuring a green V-neck which repeats on the sleeve cuffs. Their alternate shirt is white with a knitted V-neck in green with a red stripe. The sleeves, sides and back bottom change to a pale grey and the same graphic as the home shirt covers all surfaces, with the five shields represented in different colours.

'Os Lobos' present their vibrant and sustainable new Home and Away shirts with flag-inspired designs as @PortugalRugby become the first of Macron's seven national squads to unveil their kits for the Rugby World Cup 2023.

The Red Rose and Umbro dropped a classic kit with a very simple and clean-looking primary kit. The alternate strip is navy and minimal in its own right. The kits are part of the ‘From England with love’ campaign for the World Cup, derived from the passion of English fans in the stand and at home.

Canterbury and Japan have released the new Brave Blossoms jersey for the World Cup, and a lot has stayed the same from the strip they wore at their home tournament four years ago. The Japanese will wear a blue alternate jersey with gold stripes going diagonally. In a unique twist to the jersey, it is manufactured through chemical recycling and the new jerseys are made from older jerseys donated by Japan fans.

Nike have delivered two excellent jerseys for the Rugby World Cup, and while Los Pumas’ home kit has stayed largely the same since the last tournament in Japan, it is still a winner with a tidy collar and the classic blue and white hoops. The alternate kit has a major change, as the dark blue jersey features a diagonal white stripe. The inspiration for the kit is the Granaderos, who, led by national hero Jose de San Martin, liberated the country from Spanish rule in the 1800s.

Macron have released the Manu Samoa jersey for the 2023 Rugby World Cup.

In a statement releasing the jerseys, Macron Sports described the home jersey as follows: “The blue of the Pacific Ocean, the flight of the seagulls, and the symbols that capture the resilience of the Samoan people.”
