Odyssey Sleeveless Jacket | Springbok/ All Blacks

The springbok all blacks sleeveless jacket from Odyssey Apparel marks the single biggest rivalry in world rugby, a double-layered gilet for supporters who treat this fixture as the real measure of a season.

Springbok all blacks sleeveless jacket: fabric and construction

Manufactured with double-layered polyester: a tough, UV-resistant, sublimation-printed outer shell over a thick wooly inner liner that keeps the core warm while the arms stay completely free. The dye sublimation print bonds permanently into the fabric, so the design stays sharp and colourfast wash after wash.

Full edge-to-edge coverage means the design holds up through repeated use, sun, and washing without cracking or fading.

Sizing

Available in sizes from Kiddies through to Adult 9XL, so the whole family can wear the same design.

This is a fan-made design and is not officially licensed by the All Blacks and New Zealand Rugby, SA Rugby, or the Springbok national team. Odyssey Apparel creates original artwork celebrating national and international rugby pride, printed and shipped from our own facility in Brits, North West.

A rivalry worth a practical layer too

Few fixtures in world rugby carry the weight of Springbok versus All Blacks, and this sleeveless version gives supporters a practical way to wear that rivalry beyond just the hoodie and shirt versions already in the range.

It layers easily over a jersey for cold viewing parties without the bulk of a full jacket.

Care instructions

Wash on a cool machine cycle and hang or drip dry rather than tumble drying on high heat to keep the print looking sharp through every winter season. The dye sublimation process bonds the colour into the fibres rather than sitting on top of them, so it resists cracking and fading far better than a screen-printed alternative.

When to wear it

Cold match days, Heritage Day, casual winter wear, and any occasion where a layering piece suits the moment better than a full hoodie. It layers easily over a jersey or shirt without adding bulk.

Fit runs true to size across the range. Browse the rest of our body warmer range or the full jackets and hoodies collection for the matching sleeved version and other South African designs.

Every South African rugby supporter has an opinion on this fixture, and most have a specific match they still talk about years later, which is exactly the kind of history this sleeveless design is built to carry into a viewing party.
