BRIVE RUGBY

HOME KIT:

Brive have a history of using their traditional stripes throughout all of their kits. For the home kit, I redesigned this stripe and added motion to it; whilst also incorporating repeated silhouettes of the teams emblum in the shape of the region of Corrèze. Brive fans come to support the team from all over this region.
