Navy blue Ireland rugby polo short sleeves Canterbury

The navy blue Canterbury Ireland rugby polo is made for supporters of the Shamrock XV who are looking for a versatile piece for everyday wear or match days. Made of cotton, it offers natural breathable comfort — ribbed collar and sleeves keep a neat look even after several washes. The embroidered logos (IRFU on the left chest, CCC on the right chest, Vodafone on the collar) show your attachment to the Irish national team without the heaviness of a replica.

This polo works just as well for a casual outfit (jeans, sneakers) as for a dressier look (chinos, derbies). The cotton absorbs perspiration and stays comfortable all day, without the plastic feel of synthetic fabrics. Fitted cut but not tight — choose your usual size, or one size up if you prefer a looser fit.

Which size should I choose for broad shoulders?

Choose one size up from your usual size to avoid any tension across the shoulders and chest.

Does the polo shrink in the wash?

Cotton may shrink slightly on the first hot wash. Wash at 30°C maximum and dry flat to keep the original dimensions.

Are the logos embroidered or printed?

All three logos (IRFU, CCC, Vodafone) are embroidered, ensuring greater durability through repeated washes.

Care instructions

Machine wash at 30°C maximum, delicate cycle. Do not use fabric softener (it alters the cotton's absorbency and can damage the embroidery). Flat drying recommended — avoid the tumble dryer to preserve the shape of the collar and ribbed sleeves. Iron on the reverse at medium heat if needed, avoiding the embroidered logos.

Design

Canterbury chose 100% cotton to guarantee natural breathable comfort and everyday durability. Unlike synthetic polos that trap odours and cling to the skin, cotton regulates body temperature and stays cool even on hot days. The ribbed collar and sleeves provide a structure that holds over time — no distortion after washing. The embroidery replaces fragile prints: no risk of cracking or fading after a season.

Ireland team

The Ireland XV competes in the Six Nations Championship and regularly ranks among the world's top nations. Irish supporters are renowned for their passion at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, where traditional songs ring out before every test match. This IRFU 2023 collection polo lets you show your support every day, beyond the purely sporting context of the match jersey.

Canterbury

Founded in New Zealand in 1904, Canterbury has been equipping national teams and professional clubs for more than a century. The brand masters the codes of rugby — a cut adapted to the build of players and supporters, materials resistant to the demands of the pitch and everyday life. Every Canterbury product reflects field experience: the technical details (reinforcements, flatlock seams, ribbed finishes) are never decorative; they answer a functional need identified by equipped teams.
