Navy blue XV Barbarians polo shirt peach-skin texture

Inspired by traditional rugby jerseys, this XV Barbarians polo shirt combines a deep navy blue with ecru, red, and multicolored details that highlight its identity. Its thick cotton jersey with a peach-skin feel and its numerous patches and embroidery make it a piece with character, thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail.

The navy blue XV Barbarians polo shirt reimagines the classic vintage rugby jersey in a particularly well-crafted casual style. Crafted from 100% cotton jersey weighing 230 g/m², it features a peach-skin texture that offers softness and comfort. Its navy blue color provides a understated base, enhanced by a contrasting ecru gabardine collar accented with thin red and navy blue stripes. The short button placket, inspired by vintage rugby jerseys, reinforces this authentic aesthetic.

On the chest, the design deliberately embraces asymmetry. The right side features a striking “XV” in twill, complemented by the vertical “BARBARIANS” lettering. On the left side, a tone-on-tone gabardine patch displays the Barbarians’ multicolored crest, a nod to the great rugby nations. The long sleeves continue this attention to detail. Their navy blue ribbed cuffs feature contrasting ecru and red stripes. One sleeve bears the embroidered “BARBARIANS BY BACK TO LEGEND” signature, while the other is adorned with a round embroidered patch.

The back reveals one of the polo shirt’s most distinctive features: a large, tone-on-tone embroidered square patch featuring the word “BARBARIANS,” a large “XV,” the “SINCE 1890” reference, and the names of several historic rugby powerhouses: England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand, and Australia. A signature-style graphic design further enhances its heritage appeal.

The straight, comfortable fit stays true to the world of rugby polo shirts, while the contrasting side slits and navy blue buttons engraved with “BACK LEGEND” add an extra touch of style. Available in sizes S through 5XL, this polo shirt combines athletic heritage with casual style, making it perfect for pairing with jeans or chinos.
