Kukri- The DNA of Kukri Sports dates back to 1979, when the British Army Gurkhas and RAF joined together to create a stronger rugby club, the Flying Kukris. They officially became one club, when in true Kukri Sports tradition, a tailor was tasked with stitching the shirts of both clubs together to create a bespoke playing kit. In 1999, Kukri were inspired by and created with the same values as that of the Army and RAF soldiers in the Flying Kukris. These being: quality, passion, diversity, professionalism and teamwork.
Their mission from the outset was to give clubs a choice, an identity, and to be proud of their club colours. With quality product and a professional service, Kukri quickly established themselves as a leading sports brand. From humble beginnings, they now pride themselves on being an international sportswear manufacturer supplying bespoke teamwear for over 100 sports.
