About Us

Tight Five is for those niche rugby references and obscure designs. Those who don't take life too seriously are our kind of people. Fun, light hearted, and often niche, the designs are inspired by teams, players and culture which allow you to show your allegiances, without resorting to brown shoes and jeans.

 

Born out of a frustration of seeing other sports and trends getting great looking and fun designs, but realising there was nothing for rugby. Wanting to subtly nod towards our love of rugby, but not ramming it down peoples throat and automatically being stereotyped for our support of a sport, that at sometimes, can attract a less than ideal crowd.

 

Sourcing

As a small, independent setup, it’s not realistic in our current setup to create our own blocks for clothing, so instead, we use a partner to manufacture our products on our behalf.

The products we make are made-to-order. We won't want to commit to large print runs that ultimately end up in sale or destroyed. Not only is this a pain for us, it's an environmental nightmare, one we want to avoid. 

 

Sustainability

We try as much as possible to source sustainable products, as well as eco-friendly inks and embroidery techniques. We also try to use as much sustainable packaging materials as possible.
