I am trying to get a history together of old Gloucester rugby shirts from the recent past for reference and I list below a small selection of the many we have had over the years together with some photos of shirts that we have never had. In my opinion the best are the ones from the 1990’s made by Cotton Oxford, see below

Shirt was produced just as sponsorship came in. Due to the hold up in Eagle Star being appointed, shirts were issued without the Eagle Star logo for a short period of circa 3 months and therefore shirt more difficult to get hold of
