The Western Force is today excited to unveil the Club’s 2026 Swyftx Super Rugby jerseys in collaboration with new official apparel partner New Balance.
The 2026 jerseys offer a modern but historic touch, reverting to the Force blue from last year’s periwinkle blue as part of the 20th-season anniversary celebrations in 2025, while it proudly features the Club’s renowned Maali trademark across the front of the top.
The lettering has been dropped in the Club logo on the heart, as part of a wider shift to elevate the Force’s trademark Maali (black swan).
The collar is also back after proving popular with fans in the Force’s special edition jersey worn against the British & Irish Lions in June.
The home jersey features navy blue strips on the shoulders, with the numbers on the back of the jersey reverting to white. The away jersey is predominantly gold with the navy blue strips on the shoulders.
Working with New Balance and Belgravia Sports Apparel, there are unique features including a longer gel grip across the whole length of the jersey, along with drill holes for aeration down either side.
The jerseys will be worn across the 2026 Swyftx Super Rugby Pacific and Super Rugby Women’s seasons.
Force CEO Niamh O’Connor said: “We’re really excited to share our 2026 Super Rugby jerseys with the Sea of Blue. There’s a real sense of momentum building ahead of the new season, and it’s great to finally show everyone what we’ve been working on.
“The home jersey brings a modern, clean look in our Force blue and navy, and the away jersey proudly carries the gold that represents Western Australia — the place we choose, and the place that shapes us.
“One of the things that makes this club special is how deeply connected we are to WA. It’s a unique pride of grit, determination, humility and being fiercely loyal. Our jerseys are designed to reflect that identity and honour the people and communities who stand with us every season.
“We’ve also elevated the Maali right through the design. For us, it’s more than a mark, it’s becoming the symbol of who we are and what we stand for as a club. The 2026 season is a year to forge ahead and take a meaningful step forward.
“This jersey is just one piece of a much bigger journey, but it reflects our long-term ambition to be leaders in WA on the national and international stage.”
The jerseys are available on pre-sale from 9am WST Thursday 27 November via westernforce.rugby.
The jerseys are priced at $150 for adults and $120 for juniors, with 2026 Force Members entitled to 10% off. They’re available to fans with a more relaxed fit compared to previous replica versions.
