The Monilex Bucket
- Description
- Sizing Info
Simply classic. Originally worn by Irish farmers and fisherman starting in the 1900’s - the bucket hat was made from wool felt or tweed cloth (the lanolin from the unwashed wool made these hats naturally waterproof), but since the 1960s the bucket has lived on in modern form and has been adopted by two separate, but sometimes overlapping groups - street culture and rugby culture. One need not tell a rugby fan the value of the bucket in protecting all sides from the sun whilst standing at the side of the pitch, but should your day spill into night The Monilex Bucket will carry you through.

The Rugby Legacy
Often referred to as The Beautiful Game, rugby blends tradition, physicality, and inclusivity to create an extraordinary bond between players and fanatics. At the centre of rugby traditions is the rugby jersey - originally made from heavy weight cotton to withstand the wear and tear of scrums and tackles. Originating at Rugby School in Warwickshire, England in 1823 the game began as a sport played between boys independent schools in the UK. The rugby jerseys were designed to be strong and bold in contrasting colours that would easily allow the referee to distinguish between the two teams in scrums and tackles.
Made for Today
Today rugby is an inclusive sport played by everyone, and the rugby jersey is an element of mainstream fashion worn not just by weekend rugby Dads, but by celebrities (think Taylor Swift, Mick Jagger & Justin Bieber) and street style enthusiasts from New York, to Los Angeles to Copenhagen.
