Rugby Shirt
Choose options
The Rugby Shirt is a classic style that is as popular today as it was in the 1960s but there's something special about vintage rugby shirts that we love: the colorways, the heavyweight fabric, the life. We have been wearing vintage rugby shirts with the shorts and bell bottoms for years and we have developed our own rugby shirt that combines elements of our favorite vintage ones and is uniquely Hammies. Unlike most rugby shirts, ours is fleece knit vs. jersey knit with ribbing at the waist, so it fits and feels just like our varsity raglan. Additionally, instead of printed stripes, we joined two separate dyed panels to give it its two-tone look. Lastly, in classic Hammies fashion, we oversized the collar and added interfacing to it to preserve its shape and prevent wrinkling in the laundry. Like the rest of our varsity collection, we have spent the past 18 months perfecting the fit, feel, and details of the varsity raglan and we can't take it off!
The Rugby Shirt is a homage to a time when professional sports were played in short shorts and collared shirts. This is your mom's/dad's rugby shirt!

I love this sweatshirt because it's fun the wear reminds me of the real 1970's vibe. Keeps me warm in style washes well in the machine and this color and the others all coordinate so well with the bell bottoms.
Good material, good stitching, very sturdy and yet so comfortable as well
It’s ok - thought it would be better material. I’m not really into slim fit sweatshirts - the whole point is to be comfy if I’m wearing a crewneck. This one seems to be very casual in color but more dressy in cut.
The silhouette is flattering and the collar is generous. I like the rich cream color on the lower half and the way the panels are sewn together. Bottom hem is snug and perfect. A peacock blue or a plum upper half with this cream would be nice. 🤞
It's hard to find a solid 100% cotton sweatshirt anymore. This one fits like vintage raglans from the 70s minus the polyester. I got the cream and navy and I have been wearing them constantly this fall. 5 stars!
