Uruguay’s rugby team wears sky blue, the colour so closely tied to the country’s sporting identity. Our retro Uruguay rugby shirts recreate classic Uruguay rugby kits, handcrafted in the UK from 100% cotton with no modern sponsor or manufacturer logos.

Los Teros

The team takes its nickname from the tero, the southern lapwing, a bird common across Uruguay. Uruguay played their first Test in August 1948, losing 21–3 to Chile in Buenos Aires.

World Cup, 1999

Uruguay reached their first Rugby World Cup in 1999, beating Spain in their pool before facing Scotland and South Africa. Our Uruguay 1999 Rugby Shirt takes its name from that campaign. Twenty years later, at the 2019 tournament in Japan, they beat Fiji 30–27.
