The NSW Waratahs are charging into a new era of rugby performance, announcing a three-year partnership with global athletic performance brand and sports house, Under Armour.
Commencing 1 November 2025, the partnership will see Under Armour become the official high-performance apparel supplier for both the Waratahs men’s and women’s programs across the 2026–2028 seasons.
This landmark agreement marks Under Armour’s first involvement with an Australian Rugby Union team, underscoring the brand’s commitment to performance innovation and athlete-focused design.
From the roar of the crowd at Allianz Stadium to the intensity of every tackle and the drive of every scrum, Under Armour’s gear will help the Waratahs perform when it matters most.
The Under Armour logo will feature prominently across the Waratahs’ playing kits, on the chest, shorts and socks representing a bold new chapter for the team’s on-field identity.
Fernando Reani, Under Armour Australia Country Manager and Head of Sales South APAC, said the partnership represents a powerful meeting of shared ambition at an exciting time for Australian rugby.
“Under Armour is proud to partner with the NSW Waratahs, empowering athletes to train harder, move faster and perform at their best,” Reani said.
“The Waratahs are one of the country’s most iconic rugby teams, with an exciting playing group that includes several Wallabies.
“As we look ahead to a Rugby World Cup on home soil, we couldn't be more proud to back a team that embodies the passion and performance that make rugby so special.”
For the Waratahs, the partnership goes far beyond a logo on the jersey ... it’s a commitment to driving standards on and off the field.
“This partnership with Under Armour is about performance, pride, and pushing the limits,” said Adam Fulepp, General Manager of the NSW Waratahs.
“Under Armour shares our values of innovation, excellence, and passion for rugby.
“This collaboration allows us to elevate the entire Waratahs experience for players and fans.
"We’re excited to see what we can achieve together over the next three seasons.”
Players are already feeling the difference. The new range has been designed to meet the physical and mental demands of elite rugby, from training sessions in the heat to last-minute pushes at the try line.
“Having gear that lets me move freely, train harder, and push my limits makes a real difference,” said NSW Waratahs backrower Charlie Gamble.
“Every tackle, pass, and sprint counts, and Under Armour understands what it takes to perform at the top level.
“I’m proud to represent the Waratahs in apparel that reflects our strength, pride, and commitment; and it’s great knowing our fans will be wearing the same performance gear we trust on game day.”
Beyond the pitch, the partnership will also deliver a range of marketing content and fan engagement initiatives, deepening connections with the club’s passionate supporter base and bringing fans closer to the action.
It also marks another milestone in Under Armour’s partnership with leading teamwear and apparel provider ISC Sport.
“ISC Sport is proud to play a central role in bringing Under Armour’s world-class performance innovation to Australian Rugby.” said ISC Sport CEO and Managing Director Jason Schulman.
“As Under Armour’s teamwear and apparel partner in Australia, we’re thrilled to help power the Waratah’s into a new era, delivering gear that embodies the precision, durability and performance athletes demand at every level.”
Through this collaboration with ISC Sport, Under Armour continues to expand its footprint in professional sport nationwide, delivering performance gear and fanwear to athletes and supporters across codes.
The Waratahs’ official Under Armour jersey will be available at shop.waratahs.rugby and underarmour.com.au from 27 November 2025.
Together, Under Armour and the NSW Waratahs are redefining what it means to perform, setting a new benchmark for Australian rugby built on drive, discipline, and determination.
