Chiefs 2026 Heritage Jersey – Tu Hono

Inspired by the iconic 1997 design, the Chiefs’ 2026 Heritage Jersey bridges three decades of Super Rugby history. “Tu Hono” means “to connect,” and this jersey does just that combining cultural storytelling, performance design, and digital innovation.

It features 30 QR codes woven into the fabric, each unlocking a dedicated page on the Chiefs’ website that captures every season since 1996. A 31st code marks the 2026 team, creating a first-of-its-kind digital whakapapa.

Design elements include:

Wai Hononga (Waterways): Flowing river patterns symbolise connection across Chiefs territory.

Mangopare (Hammerhead Shark): Represents strength, movement, and resilience.

Provincial Unity: Neckline graphic honours all partner provinces.

Manufactured by Classic Sportswear, this is the first jersey to embed a living archive directly into the fabric. It’s bold, meaningful, and built for the future.
