About the Emerald Heritage Rugby Kit
Some clubs want a kit that looks like it belongs in the clubhouse photographs. Emerald Heritage gives that look: a bottle green body, a cream collar, cream sleeves edged with gold, and a wide cream chest hoop framed by thin gold pinstripes. A faint chevron texture runs through the green. Green shorts carry a cream and gold side stripe, and green socks finish in matching hoops.
The old-school look sits on modern fabric. The jersey is a 100% polyester rugby knit of about 260–280 GSM, with reinforced twin-needle seams that hold up in contact play. Shorts are 220 GSM polyester twill with a reinforced crotch, and socks are a polyester/nylon knit that keeps its shape over a full season.
Anniversary kits are a common use. A club celebrating 50 or 100 years can order 50 sets for a commemorative match, with the founding year sublimated under the crest and player names on the back. Vintage-style numbers, sponsor logos and an embroidered crest are all possible. For a one-off fixture, the kit can later be worn as a training set or sold to members as a keepsake, so the order keeps its value after the anniversary match.
We work from your artwork or a reference photo, and a free 3D mock-up shows the result before sampling. A paid sample is ready in 15–20 working days, with its cost credited to bulk. After approval, bulk production takes 2–3 weeks, with ISO 9001:2015 checks on stitching and print alignment.
Indicative FOB pricing per set is $27.00–$32.00 for 50–99 sets, $24.00–$27.00 for 100–499 and $22.00–$24.00 for 500+. Sizes run from youth 6–16 yrs to adult 5XL, in classic or tight-fit cut, and can be mixed inside the minimum. We match the green to your crest from a Pantone reference.
This design suits rugby clubs in Ireland and the UK, and the growing club scene in the USA. We ship by DHL, UPS or FedEx air, or by sea freight for larger orders. Our sales team answers at sales@blackthorn-textile.com and on WhatsApp +92 332 832 8802.

Frequently asked questions
Who makes retro-style rugby kits for club anniversaries?
Blackthorn World makes heritage rugby kits such as Emerald Heritage factory-direct. Clubs can add the founding year, a commemorative message, an embroidered crest and player names. The minimum is 50 sets per design, which suits a one-off anniversary fixture or a full season kit.
Is the Emerald Heritage kit made from cotton like old rugby shirts?
No. It has a vintage look but uses a 100% polyester rugby knit of about 260–280 GSM. This dries faster, resists stretching and holds sublimated colour far better than cotton, while the cream collar keeps the traditional style.
Can we see the kit before paying for a sample?
Yes. We send a free 3D mock-up of the jersey, shorts and socks with your crest and colours. Once you approve it, a paid sample is made in 15–20 working days, and that cost is credited against your bulk order.
What happens if some kits arrive with a defect?
Report any defect within 14 days of delivery with photos or video. We inspect the evidence and then either remake the affected pieces or issue a credit note. Payment terms are 50% deposit and 50% when the order is ready to ship.
