Finding the perfect rugby shorts can sometimes feel like a ruck without a ball — frustrating and all over the place. Rugby shorts need to be durable, comfortable, and flexible enough to keep up with the intense game, but the hunt for them often demands more than a quick sprint through generic sports shops. Unlike your average gym shorts, rugby shorts are engineered to withstand tackles, tackles, and more tackles — and that specialization means not every store stocks the right gear. If you dive headfirst into any old apparel shop, you might just end up with shorts that fold under pressure faster than a scrum on match day. Luckily, Worcester has a scrum of options where players and enthusiasts can try before they buy, ensuring you’re ready to ruck and maul without wardrobe malfunctions.
