Nike and SA Rugby have officially unveiled a custom-designed Springbok jersey engineered exclusively for the four-Test Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry (RGR) Tour against the All Blacks.
The limited-edition kit features a tone-on-tone graphic shaped like the South African flag, built from the complete lyrics of Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrika across all five national languages (Xhosa, Zulu, Sotho, Afrikaans, and English). Constructed using Nike FIT ADV technology, the jersey will be worn solely during the four-match series against New Zealand.
