Replica Rhodesian Rugby Jerseys for $110.00
We have researched and copied as close as possible to the 'real thing' as used in the late 1970's.
In 1898 the first national Rhodesian side toured South Africa. We can only see from black and white photos that the strip was dark in colour. In the early 1900's the Green and White hoops were introduced. It was not until the late 1970's that the Lion over the Tusk was actually sewn onto the jersey, the first time that any insignia other than player numbers was worn.
Feedback to date from around the world is most favourable regarding size and likeness to the original.
These jerseys are made in New Zealand by Union. They are not made in Asia. Material is a poly /cotton mix and some shrinkage is to be expected. When ordering please indicate size from the chest measurement below, and if you want short or long sleeve:
❖ Extra small - only 1 in long sleeve in stock - please inquire for measurement - would fit a young teenager
❖ Small = 36 inch / 90 cm
❖ Medium = 40 inch / 100 cm
❖ Large = 43 inch / 107.5 cm
❖ XL = 46 inch / 115 cm
❖ XXL = 49 inch 122.5 cm

MEDALS, RIBBONS and DEVICES
Important Note: Please be aware that wearing medals to which you are not entitled (excluding medals worn on the right breast in memorial) is an offense that can be punished with fines or imprisonment. In Australia you can be charged under Section 80 B of the Defence Act. In New Zealand, the Military Decorations and Distinctive Badges Act states that you can be fined or imprisoned and that the onus is on the defendant who must prove eligibility or entitlement.
We can have your medals professionally mounted ready to wear. When ordering we will need to know a few things:
❖ What style of mounting you require - court or swing.
❖ Where you want the Zimbabwe Independence Medal placed. Our standard procedure is to mount it last and reversed - see notes below for the reason.
Court Mounting: The ribbon is attached to a board cut to be slightly smaller than the outside profile of the medals (you cannot see it) and a brooch mount is attached to the back of that board, the medals are hung from the ribbon and secured to the board. Example:
[pic]
Swing Mounting: The medals are hung from a brooch mount suspended by their ribbon. Swing mounting is generally found to be the Rhodesian soldier's most favoured style. Example:
[pic]
The Zimbabwe Independence Medal was awarded to all those who were serving in Rhodesia in April 1980 - Rhodesian Security Forces, Commonwealth Monitoring Forces and the gooks. The correct placement is to have the Zimbabwe Independence Medal first with the Zimbabwe Ruins facing.
This medal was unique, for this was the first medal to have ever been issued to all sides of a conflict. Over the years there has been a resistance by entitled Rhodesians to wear the medal. In New Zealand precedence was set by the late Peter Bomford MC to wear the Zimbabwe Independence Medal last on his group and to reverse it in protest (see the group above). He believed that those entitled to the medal should wear it, but if they were not happy with the situation to make their protest known thus.
