“New Threads” – The Newest Kits for the Rugby World Cup and 2023/24 Season

8. Fiji – 2023 Rugby World Cup Alternate Kit

Fiji dropped their alternate kit for the 2023 Rugby World Cup, and rugby fans are all asking the same question, “can they wear this for all the matches?” The Flying Fijians have pulled out all the stops with their latest collaboration with Nike, bringing the cool Pacific Island culture onto a striking black and red design.

The red palm leaves jump out of the black-out background, in complete reverse of the All Blacks subtlety. An undoubtedly striking jersey, lets hope the Fijians get the opportunity to rock the kit at the upcoming Rugby World Cup. The light red shorts borderline clash with the jersey, but the kit is brought home by the black out socks, with red cuff and iconic white Nike swoosh.

9. England Women

The reigning Women’s Six Nations Grand Slam champions have launched their kit for the 2023/24 season. It has not been confirmed if this kit will carry the side through to the 2025 Rugby World Cup on home soil, but one thing is for certain, and that this kit is a cool modern upgrade on a classic England look.

The red side panels have a nice faded, gradient design, with sweeping white lines intercepting the colour. The majority of the jersey is a fundamental classic, another blank canvas to work with as new Red Roses Head Coach John Mitchell gets to work with his side.
