France Rugby Away Replica Jersey 2027 Adidas White

Technical specifications

Care tips

Machine wash at 30°C maximum, delicate cycle. Avoid fabric softener, which alters the perspiration-wicking properties of the piqué mesh and blocks the Climacool perforations. Air drying is mandatory: the tumble dryer degrades the embroidered badge and distorts the Henley collar. Iron at low temperature if necessary, avoiding logos and the horizontal detail. Do not use bleach, which yellows white polyester and weakens recycled fibres.

Design

The piqué mesh of this away replica jersey features an airy honeycomb weave that multiplies contact points with the skin, accelerating moisture evacuation outward. Climacool technology, developed by Adidas for endurance sports, incorporates strategic ventilation zones on the sides and back, creating a continuous airflow even under a supporter's jacket. The recycled polyester, made from transformed plastic bottles, retains a more open fibre structure than virgin polyester, improving breathability by approximately 15%. The Henley collar, with its three invisible press-stud buttons, allows the opening to be adjusted according to temperature: closed for cool evenings in the stands, open for celebrations in the sun. The blue and red horizontal detail, woven directly into the mesh, resists friction and retains its brightness after 50 washes.

France rugby team

The France XV has worn a white jersey away since 1913, the year the FFR adopted the Gallic rooster as its official emblem. This away jersey, worn on travels in the Six Nations Championship (Twickenham, Murrayfield, Dublin, Cardiff, Rome) and on tours in the Southern Hemisphere, embodies Les Bleus' ability to prevail far from home. The blue and red horizontal detail recalls the colours of the tricolour flag, progressively integrated into kits from the 1950s onward. The embroidered FFR badge, present on all official jerseys since 1919, authenticates membership of the federation and distinguishes licensed replicas from counterfeits. This 2026 jersey restores a visual heritage that spans generations of supporters, from the Five Nations to the professional era.

Adidas

Official kit supplier to the France XV since 2018, Adidas applies to French rugby the expertise it gained with the All Blacks (until 2019) and the Springboks. The German brand, a global leader in technical textiles, transposes to rugby innovations developed for football and athletics. Climacool technology, launched in 2002 for running, was adapted to team sports in 2010, integrating ventilation zones specific to playing positions. The recycled polyester used here comes from the Parley Ocean Plastic programme, which collects coastal plastic waste before it reaches the ocean. Each jersey incorporates the equivalent of 8 transformed plastic bottles into high-performance fibres, without compromise on durability or moisture management.
