Our Edinburgh jerseys page showcases, when available, the jerseys of Edinburgh Rugby, one of the two professional teams in Scotland. It reflects on the club's history since the first match between districts, played in 1872, at its nearby Murrayfield stadium, and provides our tips for selecting the version and size of your jersey.
The rugby of the Scottish capital.
Rugby from Edinburgh claims a record: in 1872, the selection from the district played against Glasgow in the first match between districts in history. This rivalry still lives on through a trophy that bears the name of that year, contested between the two professional Scottish teams. The modern club was formed in 1996 with professionalism and has changed its name several times, from Edinburgh Reivers to Edinburgh Gunners, before adopting Edinburgh Rugby in 2006. In 2015, it became the first Scottish club to reach a major European final, which it lost nineteen to thirteen against Gloucester in the European Challenge, at Twickenham Stoop.

For many years, Edinburgh played in the huge Murrayfield, the Scottish national stadium, and then briefly at Myreside stadium, without finding a suitable setting. Since February 2021, the club has had its own Edinburgh Rugby Stadium, built next to Murrayfield, with a capacity of seven thousand eight hundred seats. Supporters are close to the pitch, and the large neighbouring stadium remains reserved for high-profile matches, like derbies against Glasgow, which can attract several tens of thousands of spectators.
The supporter version of the Edinburgh jersey, made from lightweight polyester and a straight cut, can be worn in the stands or in daily life; it is chosen in your usual size, possibly one size up to fit a warm layer underneath on Scottish winter evenings. The player version, identical to that worn in matches, fits closer to the body and is taken one size up to allow freedom in the shoulders. The jerseys follow international sizes, from XS to XXL, and children’s models are selected based on height. Wash inside out at thirty degrees, without fabric softener.

The United Rugby Championship, a competition that mixes teams from five countries, and the European cups. The club regularly faces French teams, in the Champions Cup as well as in the Challenge European.
Together with Glasgow, the club provides the bulk of the players for the Scotland XV. Several Scottish internationals have made their careers there, making its jersey a natural complement to that of the national team for a supporter.
An Edinburgh jersey in the supporter version, to wear at the stadium or while watching the matches of the tournament. Rare in French shops, it makes for an original gift for someone in love with Scotland or a visitor to the capital.
Avoid hanging it wet on a thin hanger, which can mark the shoulders. Flat drying or using a wide hanger, after washing inside out at thirty degrees, will preserve the shape of the collar and sleeves.
