The adventure began in Toulouse in 2010 for this family business. Two rugby enthusiasts decide to launch their collection of t-shirts and sweatshirts, favouring a humorous and offbeat approach. Successful bet for the young Toulouse brand: rugby fans quickly adopt their unique models with funny phrasing and straight inspired by the world of matches!
Local production and quality products
But Aficionados is not just about well-chosen words: the choice of qualities is also essential for the brand which wants to offer resistant clothing that is comfortable to wear. Local production being an integral part of their philosophy, the two fans of the round ball are proud to present products 85% made in the Midi-Pyrénées region, while maintaining an affordable price.
“Aficionados Rugby” and “A mendonné”: the two ranges of the brand
Rugby is a world combining frank camaraderie and a little schoolboy expressions, which we like to take up outside the stadiums. The Aficionados label is therefore available in two ranges, responding to specific codes. “Aficionados Rugby” explores the values of rugby from all angles. From the classic black “Monsieur Rugbyman” t-shirt to the traditional XV de France model, including a hijacked version “Adopteunrugbyman.com”, fans will inevitably find their happiness! The “A’mendonné” collection, full of self-mockery, draws its inspiration from rugby jargon and features sentences straight out of the locker room. It reflects the good-natured spirit and the joviality that reign between the players on the field but also after the match, during the “third half”.
Aficionados hits the mark in France
Aficionados has not left the world of rugby indifferent since the brand is now present in more than 120 stores in France, across 90 French cities. You will find your favourite t-shirts in handpicked shops specializing in sports and rugby. The entire collection is also available on the Aficionados Rugby e-shop. Fervent supporter or just curious? Discover without further delay the novelties and essential models of Aficionados Rugby.
