Kids France FFR rugby training t-shirt purple adidas

This adidas FFR kids rugby t-shirt combines textile performance with the symbols of the French XV. Designed for children aged 6 to 14 who play in clubs or at school, it meets the demands of intensive training: 150 g/m² interlock fabric in recycled polyester, AEROREADY system to manage perspiration, side mesh panels that improve ventilation under the arms. The standard unisex fit suits all body shapes without squeezing or flapping — ideal for chaining passes, tackles and sprints.

The official FFR purple colourway and the embroidered rooster on the chest anchor the young player in the world of French rugby. Unlike mass-market replicas, this performance version integrates targeted ventilation zones and a weight designed for repeated effort, whereas a casual jersey favours aesthetics over thermal regulation.

What size for a 10-year-old child?

Size 140 (9-10 years) corresponds to a height of 135-140 cm and a chest measurement of about 71 cm. For a developed build, choose 152.

Does the t-shirt shrink when washed?

No, polyester keeps its dimensions. Wash at 30°C maximum, air dry to preserve the prints.

Are the mesh panels fragile?

The side mesh is reinforced at the seams and withstands repeated washing, designed for weekly training use.

Care tips

Wash at 30°C maximum on a delicate cycle, with similar colours. Polyester does not shrink and dries quickly flat or on a hanger — avoid the tumble dryer to preserve the elasticity of the interlock fabric and the sharpness of the FFR marking. Iron at low temperature if necessary, without pressing on printed or embroidered areas.

Design

The 150 g/m² interlock fabric offers an optimal balance between strength and lightness: its double-face structure prevents see-through while limiting weight on a child's shoulders. AEROREADY technology works by capillarity — the hollow fibres of the recycled polyester absorb and then diffuse sweat toward the outside of the garment, where it evaporates without cooling the skin. The side mesh panels, positioned under the arms, create a transverse airflow during arm movements — particularly effective during ground play or repeated defensive sequences. The standard unisex fit avoids overly high armholes that hinder the passing or tackling motion in young players of smaller build.

Club: France

The French Rugby Federation has governed rugby in mainland France since 1919. The French XV competes in the Six Nations Championship each winter and plays mainly at the Stade de France, an 80,000-seat venue inaugurated in 1998. The Gallic rooster, a historic symbol of French rugby, adorns all official kits since the first international matches of the early 20th century.

Brand: adidas

Founded in 1949 in Herzogenaurach, adidas established itself in rugby through its textile expertise — the AEROREADY range derives from research carried out for elite athletics and football. Supplier to numerous federations (New Zealand, South Africa, France), the three-stripe brand develops recycled technical fabrics without compromising durability, whereas other manufacturers still favour virgin polyester for youth ranges.
