Gilbert Saracen V3 kids rugby shorts white match

Technical specifications

Design

The polyester used here is a knit fabric of medium weight (approximately 150 g/m²), chosen for its ability to wick away sweat while resisting repeated friction. The junior cut follows the morphological standards for children aged 6 to 14: elasticated waist to fit several body types, leg length calibrated so as not to hinder stride or ride up during acceleration. Side seams are double-needle topstitched to withstand the tension of ground tackles. The internal drawstring system allows precise adjustment without creating pressure points on the stomach.

Club

The Saracen V3 features the colours of the Saracens, an English professional club based in London and competing in the Premiership. Founded in 1876, the club has made its mark on recent English rugby history with a physical style of play and a renowned academy. These shorts take the iconic white of the away kit, worn on European trips.

Brand

Gilbert has been designing rugby equipment since 1823. A longtime supplier of oval balls for international competitions, the English brand has extended its textile expertise to match and training clothing. Its know-how in junior morphological cut is based on biomechanical studies carried out with British rugby schools, ensuring comfort and durability with every wash.

Care tips

Machine wash at 30°C maximum to preserve the elasticity of the waistband. Avoid fabric softener, which can clog polyester fibres and reduce their breathability. Air dry or tumble dry on a cold programme. Do not iron. For grass or mud stains, rub with Marseille soap before washing. Store in a dry place to avoid mildew odours after rainy sessions.
