Vintage Striped Rugby Shirt with Embroidered Crest

This is a vintage-style long-sleeved rugby shirt, primarily grey with two prominent horizontal black stripes across the chest and upper back. The shirt features a classic white cotton twill collar, which contrasts sharply with the body color. A two-button placket, also in white, secures the front of the collar, with the visible buttons appearing to be white or light-colored plastic. On the left chest area, an embroidered crest logo is present, featuring what appears to be a golden or brass-colored crown atop an ornate shield or motif, suggesting a preppy or aristocratic style, possibly associated with a club or brand. The sleeves are long and grey, matching the main body color. The fabric appears to be a medium-weight cotton jersey, typical of rugby shirts, offering durability. The shirt shows signs of general wear consistent with its likely age and use, including some slight pilling or fading in areas, though no significant tears or holes are immediately visible. The overall construction seems robust, with visible stitching suggesting a quality garment, although specific manufacturing tags or marks are not discernible in the image. The hem of the shirt includes typical side vents, reinforced with what appear to be small white fabric tabs characteristic of rugby shirt design. The style suggests an item from the late 20th century, likely 1980s or 1990s, given the color palette and design elements. The condition appears to be good vintage, with a pleasant patina from age and use adding to its character.
