Rugby Swimwear
Rugby and swim briefs go back a long way. Recovery sessions in the pool, a dip in the sea after a sevens tournament and the end of season tour all call for a pair of budgy smugglers in your team's colours.
This edit brings together our flag prints for the home nations and beyond: Hot Cross Buns for England, Brave Parts and Scottish Thistle for Scotland, Unleash the Dragons for Wales, Spring Boxers for South Africa and Union Dacks for anyone flying the Union Jack. It is always Budgy Season.
Built for the tour, not just the terraces
Every pair is made in our Sydney factory from GRS certified recycled polyester and elastane, SPF 50+ and 80 to 90 hours of chlorine resistance, so they hold their shape through pool recovery, sea swims and a few too many team photos.
Ordering for a whole squad?
Clubs and tour groups can design their own pairs in team colours. Start with the Budgy Builder for small runs, or talk to us about custom team swimwear.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do rugby players wear budgy smugglers?
Swim briefs are part of rugby culture: pool recovery, sea swims on tour and end of season trips. Players from the Wallabies, the Waratahs and the French Top 14 wear ours, and we run pop up stalls at rugby sevens events.
Which nations do you have prints for?
England, Scotland, Wales and South Africa, plus the Union Jack. Prints come and go, so check back before the next tournament.
Do budgy smugglers run small?
They are cut close to the body by design, so go by your waist measurement rather than your jeans size. Our mens size chart lists each size from 28 to 40 in centimetres and maps it to Speedo sizes.
Do you ship across the UK?
Yes. Everything ships from our London base, and orders placed by 2pm on a business day go out the same day.
