Authentic Italy Home Rugby Jersey 2026/27 Macron

Technical specifications

Care instructions

Machine wash at maximum 30°C, delicate cycle. Turn the jersey inside out before washing to protect embroidered logos and printed details. Air drying mandatory — no tumble dryer, heat could damage the technical fibers of Macron_Tek. Do not iron directly over badges. High-performance polyester retains its sweat-wicking properties after many washes if instructions are followed.

Design

The Macron_Tek equipping this Authentic version stands out for its micro-perforated structure promoting rapid sweat evacuation and optimized lightness for the explosive efforts inherent to modern rugby. The Body Fit cut follows body lines without compressing, allowing complete freedom of movement while limiting grip in tackles. Seams are reinforced at the shoulders and flanks, zones of maximum stress during impacts and scrums. The officer collar, buttonless, avoids any friction point. Azzurro blue, Italy's historic rugby color since 1929, is here rendered in a saturated shade faithful to the tunics worn during great Italian victories. Green and white national flag details appear on the side bands and collar.

Squadra Azzurra

The Italian XV rugby team, nicknamed the Squadra Azzurra, has competed in the Six Nations Championship since 2000. A Tier 1 member worldwide, the Italian selection has registered constant progress in recent years driven by a new generation of players trained in Top 14 and United Rugby Championship clubs. The Azzurri play their home matches in Rome at the Stadio Olimpico, in front of passionate crowds who sing traditional Italian songs. The blue home jersey symbolizes the historic attachment of Italian rugby to its roots and the House of Savoy, whose emblematic color became established in all national sports disciplines.
