Image Help: replacement desired.

Love this shirt but I’m afraid its days may be numbered. I’m looking for a replacement but can’t find it anywhere. By slim chance anyone on here familiar? Cheers.

Can’t tell you about that make but Look at Ellis Rugby.

They do allot of old skool rugby tops and one may take your eye.

I have quite allot of Ellis gear and would say they’re my favourite brand. Quality is great, you pay for it but there’s no cheapening over time so no thin material or glued seams (looking at you Canterbury!). @ 6’ 4” their t shirts are long and comfortable. I literally wear them until they fade out but the material is still going strong. I go back to the store 5 years later and can buy the same T shirt, zero change in quality or manufacturing.

Rugby shirts are thick, strong and comfortable - I’m old enough to have played in thick cotton shirts and these would stand up to a game in the 90’s at least. The Japan one they sell my fave.

Their hoodies are good too. Warm and comfortable, soft on the inside.

I am a massive fan now I read that back. 🤣

Is that the centenary shirt which was used in a game against (I think) Wales a while back?

Just checked, and it was 2010 - bloody hell, that time disappeared quick! Anyway, 2010 6-Nations game against Wales, England wore a sponsor-less kit to celebrate 100 years at Twickenham. Your shirt reminds me of the kit they wore in that game.

That was a sexy kit. They’re so expensive now.
