The Rugby Company
The Rugby Company was founded by Jeremy Moore, and it ties its story closely to the town of Rugby. It specialises in vintage-style rugby shirts, and among them is a run of player reproductions: cotton jerseys modelled on shirts from the game's past, including one based on the 1888 British Lions jersey. Several of its player-jersey pages say the shirts are made at the company's own manufacturing facility in the Midlands, with the yarn spun in the same building.
The clothing
Shown here are The Beamish, The Owen and The Stoddart, cotton player-reproduction jerseys; The Stoddart recreates the 1888 British Lions shirt. Each product page says the shirt is made entirely in Britain at the company's own Midlands facility.

Made in Britain — how we know
The product pages for The Beamish, The Owen and The Stoddart each say the shirt is made entirely in Britain at the company's own Midlands facility. The site's general 'Made in England' wording isn't used, as it also appears on sample shirts marked not made in England. Checked October 2026.
