Six Hoop Classic Rugby Jersey

Ask an old boy how many hoops a jersey should have and the answer is usually six. Six bands of about three inches each fill the body from collar to hem without crowding it, and the sleeves carry the same rhythm so the pattern runs unbroken when the arms are down. It is the middle of the pattern book: not as fine as narrow hoops, not as loud as broad ones.

We drew it for the side that has argued about kit for years and wants to stop arguing. Bottle and old gold is the clubhouse favourite, maroon and sky is softer and very old-school, grey and navy is the one people wear to the pub on a Saturday night as much as on the pitch.

• Pattern: six even hoops, about three inches each, body and short sleeves.
• Colourways: bottle and old gold, maroon and sky, grey and navy.
• No crest, no sponsor marks, no club name: the hoops do the talking.
• Sizes S to 5XL; 2XL and above cost a little more, shown when you choose.
