Each rugby team has a minimum of two sets of rugby jerseys. While playing at home, these teams sport their main jersey but when they are on tour they don a different one.
These jerseys are comparatively of a lighter shade and mostly depend on the choice of the team.
These jerseys are worn by the teams during the matches only. The designs on these jerseys vary from team to team. The design may be horizontal stripes, checks or plain solid color. All the shirts carry a logo in the front of the shirt. This logo can be anything, ranging from the mascot of the team to the logo of the sponsors of a team. Sometimes the shirts also carry logos of the tournament in which the team is playing.
All the shirts are numbered at the back. This is done so keeping in mind that it helps the spectators to identify the players easily. Some shirts also carry the names of the players. These shirts are very popular among the fans. They wear these shirts to the games, supporting their teams. Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Gilbert, Front Row, Canterbury and Guinness are some of the big names which manufacture these shirts.
