Every rugby season starts the same way. The jersey goes on.
It’s more than a uniform. It’s the clearest signal of who your team is before a ball is kicked — the colours, the crest, the identity your players have earned the right to wear.
At Kooga, we design and supply rugby kit NZ-wide for clubs, schools, and representative teams who want their gear to genuinely reflect who they are. From custom rugby jerseys that NZ teams rely on season after season, to full rugby uniforms built for the demands of contact and competition, everything is developed around your colours, your identity, and the reality of New Zealand rugby.
We work with club committees, coaches, team managers, and school sports staff who need a clear, structured process for getting teams kitted out. Whether you’re starting fresh, updating an existing rugby kit, or building consistency across multiple grades, we help you get it right.

Most teams don’t arrive with a finished design. They arrive with a direction: a new season, a sponsor that’s changed, or a kit that’s had one too many seasons of use.
From there, we help turn that direction into a structured rugby uniform that works across your full team setup, whether you’re running one grade or five.
Some clubs prefer to explore the options first. Others already know what they want and just need someone to execute it cleanly. Both approaches work, and we’ve helped teams at every stage of the process.
If you already have a rough colour direction, the kit designer is the easiest way to start visualising options before any conversations happen.
Rugby is not a controlled environment. It’s wet fields, heavy contact, and long seasons that test every part of a kit across training and match days.
A rugby uniform has to do more than look good in the first pre-season photo. It needs to hold its shape, keep its colour, and stay consistent across the whole season, across every player and every grade.
That’s why durability and consistency sit at the centre of every rugby kit we produce. The colours need to stay true. The construction needs to hold up. And the fit needs to work for the full squad, not just the players who fit a standard size run.
When a rugby kit is built properly for the conditions it’ll actually face, it stops being something you think about. You focus on the season.
A rugby kit carries more than players. It carries the club behind them: the committee running it, the sponsors backing it, and the history built up over seasons.
We create custom rugby jerseys for NZ clubs and schools that are recognisable at a glance, whether you’re refining an identity that’s been around for decades or building something entirely new from scratch.
The design process doesn’t require you to come in with finished artwork. You bring your colours, your crest or logo, and any existing elements you want to keep or move away from. We handle the design work and walk you through every decision before anything goes into production.
When a custom rugby jersey is done well, it doesn’t need to announce itself. It just belongs to the team wearing it.
A rugby kit is just one part of a wider programme. Most clubs also need shorts, socks, training gear, warm-ups, and off-field apparel that keeps everything visually consistent across the season.
When those elements are aligned and clearly connected to the club’s identity, the whole programme looks more cohesive and is significantly easier to manage at reorder time.
We help you plan the full picture from the start, so you’re not piecing it together from different suppliers and ending up with gear that almost matches.
One of the biggest challenges in club rugby isn’t the first order. It’s what happens after.
Players come and go. Sponsors update their logos. Kits wear down across the grades. And slowly, small differences start appearing across what should be a unified rugby uniform: a slightly different shade on the replacement jerseys, shorts that don’t quite match the colour from three seasons ago.
We keep your design specifications on file so every future order matches exactly what came before. No colour drift between batches, no confusion about which version of the design is current, no mismatched sets across age groups.
Whether you’re reordering for a new intake at the start of the season or replacing worn items mid-season, the process stays simple and the result stays consistent.
Kooga has worked alongside New Zealand rugby clubs, schools, and representative teams for years. Here’s what teams consistently tell us matters most.
100% New Zealand owned. We’re based in Hawke’s Bay and we understand what New Zealand rugby actually looks like, from grassroots club rugby through to school sport and representative programmes. We’re not a distant offshore supplier.
Consistency you can rely on. Your rugby kit stays aligned season after season. Designs stay on file. Reorders match exactly. The kit doesn’t drift over time, even as players and committees change.
People, Participation, and Partnerships. That’s genuinely how we approach every relationship. We’re invested in your programme doing well, not just in processing an order.
Trusted by 500+ clients nationwide. From local club rugby to an exclusive supply agreement with NZ Police Sport, clubs and organisations across New Zealand and the Pacific have trusted Kooga to deliver.
A team that’s straightforward to deal with. Clear communication, realistic timelines, and someone to actually talk to when you have a question. No chasing, no confusion
Give your team an identity they’re proud to wear.
1. Tell us about your team, including player numbers and any existing colours or branding.
2. Work with our design team, or use our online kit designer, to bring your story to life.
3. Review and approve your design before anything goes into production.
4. We manufacture your uniform using performance fabric built for rugby.
5. Your kit is delivered, ready for the season.
We recommend starting the process early, especially if you’re ordering ahead of a new season or competition. That way, your team is fully kitted out and ready to go from round one. Our team is also on hand throughout, so if you need to adjust sizing, add a new sponsor, or order extra stock part-way through the season, you’re not left to figure it out alone.
Rugby programmes are run by people who are already managing a lot: training schedules, player registrations, sponsorship conversations, and match-day logistics. The ordering process needs to stay simple, not add to that list.
Here’s how it generally works:
You tell us about your club or school, your colours, and what you need.
We shape a design around your identity and walk you through it before anything is confirmed.
We agree on quantities, sizing, and a realistic lead time before production begins.
We deliver and keep your design on file so the next order is straightforward.
If anything is unclear at any stage, just ask. We’d rather answer a question early than have you second-guessing something later in the process.
Most teams at this point have a direction: a rough sense of colours, a season to plan for, and a kit that either needs refreshing or replacing.
The next step is turning that into a complete rugby kit built for the whole programme. Tell us about your club or school, your expected quantities, and your timeframe, and we’ll come back with a clear, no-obligation quote.
If you’re still planning, that’s fine too. We can help you shape the direction first before anything is locked in.
Pricing depends on the quantity, garment types, and design complexity. Because every order is different, we don’t publish fixed prices. The most straightforward way to get an accurate figure is to request a quote. We’ll ask a few questions and come back with clear, itemised pricing.
Yes. We work to your specific colours and take accuracy seriously. If you have Pantone references or an existing kit to match from, that helps us get it right. We confirm colours with you before anything goes into production.
Yes. Club crests and sponsor logos are incorporated into the design as standard. You’ll need to supply digital artwork files, and we’ll advise on the best format when we get started.
A complete rugby kit typically covers jerseys, shorts, and socks. Most clubs also add training gear, warm-ups, and off-field apparel to keep the programme visually consistent. We can help you plan the full setup from the beginning so everything works together.
Lead times vary depending on order size and time of year. We’ll give you a clear timeline when you request a quote, and getting in touch early is always the best approach, especially if you have a season start date to plan around.
Yes. Your design specifications are kept on file so future orders match exactly. Whether you’re adding players mid-season or ordering for a new intake the following year, the process is straightforward and the result stays consistent.
