A Rugby Shirt Size Chart helps players and fans determine the correct size for their rugby shirt. Rugby shirts are designed to fit differently depending on the type (e.g., for playing, casual wear), and the size chart will usually account for chest measurements, shoulder width, and general fit preferences.
Here’s a Rugby Shirt Size Chart for both Men's and Women's shirts, based on common standard measurements.

Important Notes:
- Chest Measurement: The chest measurement is the most important factor in determining your rugby shirt size. To measure your chest:
- Measure around the fullest part of your chest while keeping the tape comfortably snug but not tight.
- Make sure to keep the tape horizontal.
- Fit Preference: Rugby shirts come in different fits:
- Slim Fit: A more tailored, athletic cut.
- Regular Fit: A looser, more comfortable fit.
- Relaxed Fit: A very loose, roomy fit.
- Rugby Shirt Length: Rugby shirts tend to be slightly longer in the body to stay tucked in during play. Be sure to check for shirt length if you prefer a more standard length.
- International Sizing: As rugby shirts are often sold globally, sizing can differ slightly between regions. European sizes (EU) typically use chest measurements in centimeters, while UK, US, and Australian sizing often relies on inches.
- Fabric & Shrinking: Rugby shirts made from cotton might shrink after washing, so consider this when selecting a size.
Example of Size Selection:
- Men’s Medium (Chest 36-38 inches): A man who measures 37 inches around the chest would likely wear a medium rugby shirt.
- Women’s Large (Chest 38-40 inches): A woman with a chest measurement of 39 inches would likely wear a large rugby shirt.
How to Use the Rugby Shirt Size Chart:
- Take your chest measurement and refer to the chart to find the corresponding US size, UK size, or EU size.
- Choose the size that aligns with your measurement. If you prefer a looser fit, consider going up a size.
