Inspired by the 1995 Kiwis World Cup Range
The Captain's Run Gym Shorts take inspiration from the New Zealand Kiwis' 1995 Rugby League World Cup kit, combining retro styling with modern training materials.
The beige colourway and sublimated logos provide a clean finish, making these shorts suitable for both active training and casual supporter wear.
Lightweight Fabric with Four-Way Stretch
Constructed from 97% recycled polyester and 3% spandex, the shorts use a lightweight 120gsm high-performance training fabric designed for movement and comfort.
The four-way stretch construction allows the fabric to move in multiple directions, making it practical for running, gym exercises, stretching and rugby league training.
Moisture-wicking properties help move perspiration away from the skin, providing additional comfort when training intensity increases.
The lightweight construction also makes the shorts suitable for warmer conditions and everyday active wear.
