Rugby Related Clothing Dilemma (Poll)

Post by mik »

So around 2001 ago I was given a Wallabies rugby top by a visiting Ozzie relative. At that time my kids weren't playing the game, and I hadn't been brought up on Rugby, so I was kinda "oh that's cool", but not really sure what I'd do with it. Would feel a bit of a fake wearing it.... :?

I tried it on at the time - fits - took the tags off. And stuck it in the cupboard. It was subsequently shifted to new cupboards during house moves. It's never been worn, washed, ironed, raced or rallied.

I spotted it this morning, and was like "fuck - that's now 22yrs old and unworn". So what to do with it? I could wear it, but (other than being a gift) it doesn't mean anything to me. I'm sure it would be far better appreciated by someone who is fan - I could sell it (probably worth £100-£150?) but it won't let me retire any earlier....

Note: M&S hanger = model's own.

I’d pass it onto someone you know who would understand it’s worth, for exchange of currency, rather than hawk it on eBay

It's a cool jersey for rugby fans but it sounds like you'll have little opportunity to show it off as a jock.

If you don't know anyone who'd appreciate it I'd sell it on eBay.

As a southern southerner I don't understand the northern cuddling game that well. Wear it proudly and shout "Oi Oi Oi!" Sporadically (YC).

Get it sold, you've got to be ruthless with shit you don't need else you just end up with clutter.
